How it all started
My kids with special needs being called "spastic", "mong", "retard"' etc. Also my wife being mocked for using a wheelchair and mobility scooter.
What I did to try to overcome it
Informed housing association, council and local police.
How it made me feel
Terrible.
The outcome
It got worse. Property damaged. Mobility cars vandalised, tyres popped, windows smashed etc. Physical assaults. False accusations.
Final thoughts
Disability hate crime has been going on for 10 years. We have moved house, moved kids to different schools, but it still happens. Police, council, cps, legal groups and equality lawyers don't care and don't listen. Complaints are ignored and not investigated at all, even with independent, professionals involved with family.
