I have no more words anymore. One of the worst attacks and mass murders committed in Japan, and it was committed against the disabled.
Everyone just wants us dead. To vanish. Anywhere we are. Even the people who are hired to help take care of us. Even our families. Anywhere in the world it seems.
My heart however goes out to the people in Japan who will be suffering, and living in fear. Disabled people who will be afraid of leaving their houses. Of people who will be grieving so much.
The death toll is up to nineteen, now. I have no words, either.
I just want to highlight that the murderer was someone who worked in the facility, someone who worked with disabled people, who supposedly would take care of them and help them live more comfortably. Emphasis on “supposedly”.
I want every single person who’s tried to silence disabled people by saying that those who work with us have disabled people’s best interest in mind, to read this.
To read that a mass murderer who specifically targeted disabled people, was someone who worked with them, and wants all disabled people to disappear.
