Alendo adayenera RSVP pasadakhale, ndipo mwambowu udasungidwiratu. Komabe, alendo ena olumala omwe ali ndi matikiti adapeza kuti adabedwa mphatso ya Khrisimasi chifukwa cha Grinch yemwe adaganiza zotsekereza kanjira kolemala ndikuyenda ndi Lexus yake. M'malo molola njirayo mainchesi 50 kuti chikuku chidutse, ayenera kuti anaganiza kuti anthu olumala amangofunika mainchesi ochepa kuti apeze mipando yawo ya olumala ndi oyenda pansi pakati pa galimoto yake ndi khoma la simenti. (Onani chithunzi) Munthu wolumala weniweni akanadziwa bwino lomwe.
Dalaivala wa Lexus adaganiza zoyendetsa malo onse osungidwa, opangidwa kuti atsegule zitseko zake ndikukweza njinga ya olumala. Pochita zimenezi, anatsekereza zonyamula katundu za galimoto, kanjira ka njinga ya olumala, komanso kanjira ka chikuku. Mwanjira ina, adayimitsa Lexus yake pamalo omwe sanafune kuyimikapo galimoto. Izi zidalepheretsa alendo olumala kulowa mnyumba ya IBM ku Ward Village. Dalaivala, mnyamata, ndi mtsikana wake wachibwenzi anabwera kwa galimotoyo maulendo angapo madzulo kudzachotsa zinthu pampando wakumbuyo wa galimotoyo. Mpando wakumbuyo unali ndi zinthu zitayalidwa; palibe chomwe chidakankhidwira pambali chosonyeza kuti panali munthu wolumala atakhala pamenepo. "Chinsinsi" munthu wolumala, yemwe malo olemala adasungidwa, sanawonekere - AWOL.
Lexus idawonetsa chilolezo cha dipatimenti yachitetezo, B6F 8S2 mowonekera pamzerewu. Kupachikidwa pagalasi kunali chikwangwani cha olumala chomwe chinatha mu Julayi 2020, chosindikizidwa P-074-338. Ineyo sindinaonepo munthu woyenda panjinga akumenya nkhondo, koma ndimasiya. Mnyamatayo ndi bwenzi lake lachikazi anali okhoza bwino ndipo sankafunikira malo a olumala mwa kulingalira kulikonse. Munthu wolumala weniweni sangathe kutuluka mu Lexus momwe ilili chifukwa kunalibe malo kumbali zonse za galimoto kuti asamukire panjinga ya olumala. Dalaivala wodzikonda anangopanga malo ake oimikapo magalimoto, kulepheretsa anthu angapo kugwiritsa ntchito kanjira ka olumala ndi kanjira. Dalaivala wa Lexus analibe umphumphu kuti ayimitse mu garaja yaulere ku Ward Center. Amafuna malo a Lexus yake m'malo molola munthu wolumala weniweni kuti agwiritse ntchito malowa kapena kugwiritsa ntchito njira. Pali khomo limodzi lokha lolumala m'nyumba ya IBM, koma Lexus Grinch anali wozizira kwambiri kuti asasamale.
Ndilibe Lexus. Ndili ndi muscular dystrophy. Ndimagwiritsa ntchito njinga yamagetsi yamagetsi ndipo ndimayenera kunyamulidwa m'galimoto yonyamula katundu. Ndinayang'ana google momwe dalaivala wamba wa Lexus angakhale. National Network Hit idafunsa owerenga awo momwe amaonera madalaivala a Lexus. Woyankha wina adasaina Julia, adalemba kuti: "Ndikhala wowona mtima mwankhanza ... nthawi zambiri amakhala aukali kwambiri - amanyalanyaza malamulo apamsewu makamaka malamulo oimika magalimoto, kutanthauza kuti samaganiza chilichonse chomangirira malo awiri kuti magalimoto awo amtengo wapatali asatayike. Ndikuwona kuti izi zimachitika makamaka ndi eni ake a Lexus. …
Ndinadabwa kuona galimoto iyi yogwirizana ndi Fort Shafter. Bambo anga ondibala anali m’gulu lankhondo, mchimwene wanga wamkulu anali m’gulu la asilikali a Marines, mng’ono wanga anali m’gulu la asilikali, agogo anga aamuna anali m’Nkhondo Yadziko I, ndipo amalume anga aakulu anatumikira pa Nkhondo Yadziko II ku Pearl Harbor. Ine ndikudziwa banja langa bwino, iwo konse, mu zaka miliyoni, modzikonda kutenga munthu olumala malo mwachinyengo, kapena kutsekereza olumala kanjira ndi kanjira, kuteteza anthu kulowa Khirisimasi chochitika.
Popeza ndidawona achinyamata awiriwa akulowa mgalimotomo, ndikuwona momwe mpando wawo wakumbuyo unkawoneka ngati kuti palibe munthu wolumala akanakhalapo, komanso momwe munthu aliyense wolumala akanatha kutuluka mgalimotomo, popeza Lexus idatsekeredwa m'malo osakhalapo. kuti aikidwe motere, ndinaimbira apolisi kuti andipatse tikiti yagalimotoyo. Apolisi a Honolulu sanabwere. Choncho patapita mphindi 20, ndinaimbiranso apolisi n’kuwauza kuti ndakhumudwa kuti sanatumize wapolisi. Chifukwa chake wotumizayo adati akutumiza wapolisi nthawi yomweyo.
Pamene Msilikali Chin, baji nambala 2991 anaonekera, ndinatha kuona kuchokera pa masekondi asanu oyambirira kuti analibe chidwi chotumikira kapena kuteteza zosowa za olumala. Ndidawonetsa Officer Chin momwe a Lexus amatsekera njira yolowera ndi olumala. Ndinamuuza kuti achichepere aŵiriwo anali mkati mwa malo amowa a Kona Nui Night ndipo anapereka malongosoledwe awo, koma iye anakana kuloŵa mkati ndi kuwapempha kusamuka m’dera losungidwalo. Kenako dalaivala wa "Fort Shafter" Lexus adabwereranso kugalimoto yake kwa nthawi ina, kuti akatenge zinthu zambiri. Wapolisi Chin anafunsa mnyamata wa ku Asia kuti, “Kodi iyi ndi galimoto yanu?” Ndipo driver anati, “Inde.” Wapolisiyo anafunsa kuti, “Kodi chimenecho ndi chilolezo chako cha kulumala?” Dalaivalayo anati, “Ndi ya auntie, koma kulibenso, anapita ndi munthu wina.” “Azakhali” ndi liwu la kumaloko la “mkazi wokalamba,” osati azakhali ako enieni, kapena amayi ako kapena agogo ako. Semantics ya kusankha kwake zinenero imasonyeza kuti chilolezocho ndi cha munthu yemwe si wachibale wake, choncho ndizochitika zokayikitsa kwambiri.
Tsopano, ndikudziwa powonera malipoti ofufuza pa TV, pomwe achifwamba amagwidwa mosaloledwa pogwiritsa ntchito zilolezo zolemala, chowiringula choyamba chomwe achiwembu amapereka nthawi zonse ndi "Ndi zakuti ndi zina, koma adangochoka." Kuvomera kwa a Lexus kunali chifukwa choperekera ndemanga ndi kuikokera galimotoyo chifukwa sinalinso kuyimitsidwa kuti ipindule ndi munthu wolumala, koma kuti ipindule ndi mnzake wa Fort Shafter. Dalaivala adavomereza kwa mkuluyo kuti auntie "wachinsinsi" analibe paliponse. Chin adauza dalaivala wa Lexus kuti, "Zili bwino," ndikumulola dalaivala kubwerera kuphwando lake. Sanafunse ngakhale a Grinch kuti asamukire kumalo oimikapo magalimoto kwa anthu olumala. Ndinayang'ana Chin ndikumuuza kuti "Mwamupatsa chiphaso chaulere chifukwa ndi waku Asia!"
Chin sanakane chinenezo changa cha kusankhana mitundu, koma adawonetsa mkwiyo. Mzungu woyendera alendo amene ali panjinga ya olumala angayerekeze chotani nanga kuti akuimba mlandu mkulu wa zamalamulo kusonyeza kukondera kwa fuko kwa munthu wina wa ku Asia yemwe anaimika m’malo opunduka!
“Simunamufunse ID kuti atsimikizire kuti chiphaso cha handicap ndi chake. Akhoza kukhala chilolezo cha agogo ake amene anamwalira kalekale,” ndinamuuza Chin.
"Hey, ali ndi chilolezo ndipo wayimitsa pamalo olumala", adayankha Chin. "Ndilibe njira yowonera kuti chilolezocho ndi chandani kapena ngati ndi chilolezo cha agogo ake omwe anamwalira."
“Izi nzosaloledwa. Mukulipidwa kuti muthandize ndi kuteteza zosowa za olumala,” ndinauza Chin, “ndipo palibe chimene mukuchita. Mumulole kuti achoke.”
"Kodi mungandiuzeko zomwe adaphwanya?" Chin adafunsa.
Ndikufuna kuti owerenga mamiliyoni angapo a bukhuli adziwe kuti ngati mungaganize zobweretsa ndalama zomwe mudapeza movutikira kutchuthi ku Hawaii, khalani okonzeka kutchula lamulo lenileni lokhudza zolakwa, ngati mungafune thandizo la apolisi. Officer Chin adati pokhapokha nditamuuza lamulo lenileni, sanganene - ndi mfundo zonyansa bwanji.
Awa ndi malamulo omwe Officer Chin adalumbira kuti atsatira. Awa ndi malamulo omwe Officer Chin amalipidwa kuti azitsatira. Ngati wina sadziwa lamulo, ndimaganiza kuti apolisi amasankha kusankha mtundu womwe amasankha.
Kodi chochitika chochititsa mantha choterocho chingachitike? Malinga ndi bungwe limene limayang’anira magulu odana ndi anthu, yankho n’lakuti inde. M’nkhani ya mutu wakuti “Kuvutika ndi Tsankho la Ufuko ku Hawaii” bungwe la Southern Poverty Law Center linati: “Kwa zaka zambiri, anthu a ku Hawaii akhala akupewa nkhani za upandu waufuko ndi udani . . . Bungwe lolemekezeka kwambiri linafotokoza nkhani ya momwe apolisi sali mbali ya yankho; iwo ali mbali ya vuto:
Dr. Cecilia Pardon anapita kutchuthi ku Hawaii chaka chatha, atakopeka ndi chiyembekezo cha magombe okongola ndi anthu ochezeka. Iye, mwamuna wake ndi ana aakazi aŵiri achichepere ankasangalala ndi magombe amchenga a zisumbu zimenezi. Koma mtsikana wina wa ku Hawaii anakalipira ana ake aakazi aŵiri, akumawauza kuti, “Bwererani kumtunda” ndipo “Chotsani bulu wanu woyera pamagombe athu,” anatero Dr. Padron, dokotala wa matenda a m’mimba mwa ana ku New Jersey. Pamene mwamuna wake, wazaka 68 panthaŵiyo, anadutsa pakati pa atsikanawo, anyamata atatu a ku Hawaii anam’menya ndi galimoto, kumdula khutu, ndi kum’tsamwitsa ndi kum’menya zibakera, Dr. Padron akutero. Apolisi adanyengerera a Padrons kuti asawaimbe mlandu, ponena kuti zingakhale zokwera mtengo kuti abwerere ku khothi ndipo woweruza waku Hawaii angagwirizane ndi achiwembu aku Hawaii, adotolo akutsutsa.
Apolisi ali nawo limodzi polola kusankhana mitundu poyesa mobisa kuti alendo odzaona malo achizungu asamalandire chilungamo pomwe wolakwayo ndi wopanda mzungu. Dipatimenti ya apolisi ya ku Honolulu imatchedwa “manyazi a dziko.” Zitsanzo zobwerezabwereza zamakhalidwe sizigwirizana ndi mfundo za Ulemu ndi Chilungamo zomwe zafotokozedwa mu HPD Mission Statement zadziwika. Komabe, zinthu zatsala pang’ono kusintha kuno ku Honolulu, tikuuzidwa.
Milungu ingapo yapitayo, ku dipatimentiyi kunachitika chivomezi. Iwo adalemba ganyu "haole" (woyera) wamkazi, Susan Ballard monga Chief of Police. Iye sali wosiyana ndi chilichonse chomwe mzindawu udadziwapo. Stephen Watary, amene anapuma pa ntchito ya HPD mu 2007, anauza wailesi yakanema ya KHON kuti, “Pamene ndinkagwira naye ntchito, ankadziwika kuti anali woona mtima, wochita zinthu molunjika, komanso wosadzikonda. Kudzikonda ndi kusaona mtima ndi zonyansa kwa Mfumu Susan Ballard; amanyansidwa ndi chiwerewere choterocho. Ndikukhulupirira kuti akadakhala pamalo pomwe dalaivala wodzikonda wa Lexus adatsekereza kanjira ka olumala, ndikuyika galimoto yake pamalo otseguka oti anthu olumala azitha kuyendetsa zikuku zawo, komanso kumva woyendetsa akuvomereza kuti palibe olumala. pa malo pamene galimoto yake ikugwira malo olemala, akanamukakamiza kuti asamutse bulu wake Grinch. Ndikukhulupiriranso kuti akanatsutsa kugwiritsa ntchito kwake malo omwe amasungidwa anthu olumala.
Ngakhale kuti Officer Chin ankatsutsa kuti analibe njira yotsimikizira ngati Fort Shafter-tagged Lexus ankagwiritsa ntchito mwalamulo chilolezo cha handicap ku Ward Center, ndikukhulupirira kuti Chief Susan Ballard akanatsatira lamulo ndipo anauza Bambo Lexus kuti apereke chiphaso choperekedwa kwa olumala. anthu akalandira ma hang tag, monga momwe zalembedwera mu §11-219-10 ya Hawaii Administrative Rules, Title 11, Chapter 219 [Eff 12/31/84; am ndi comp 4/18/94; rem kuchokera §19-150-10, am ndi comp 12/15/00; am ndi comp 12/24/01; comp 1/23/03; am ndi comp 7/26/04; comp 8/19/06; am ndi comp 7/2/12; comp 9/25/15] (Auth HRS §291-56) (Imp: HRS §291-54; 23 CFR gawo 1235).
A Lexus anati, “Antie” anali atakhala m’galimotomo kale koma anachoka ndi munthu wina, n’chifukwa chake pamalopo panalibe “Antie”. Mfundo yakuti “azakhali” wosaonekayo sanatenge chilolezo cha kulumala kwawo pamene anatsanzikana ndi munthu wina zikanachititsa aliyense wanzeru kukayikira nkhani yake. Chin adadziwa zomwe zikuchitika; iye si wopusa. Ichi ndi chikhalidwe, osati mwachidziwitso.
Pamene Officer Chin ankatsutsa kuti a Lexus ankanena kuti "azakhali" osaonekawo adakhalapo mgalimotoyo koma sanalinso pamalopo ndipo chifukwa chake a Lexus adayimitsidwa mwalamulo, ndikukhulupirira kuti Mfumu Susan Ballard akanatsatira lamulo ndikuwuza Bambo Lexus. “Kulibe azakhali kulikonse kuno; malo oimikapo magalimoto ndi oti apindule nawo, osati kwa INU, choncho chotsani galimotoyo pamalo opunduka pokhapokha mutasonyeza kuti mukunyamula azakhali osaonekawo” monga momwe zalembedwera mu §11-219-11 ya Hawaii Administrative Rules, Mutu 11, Mutu. 219 [Eff 12/31/84; am ndi comp 4/18/94; rem kuchokera §19-150-10, am ndi comp 12/15/00; am ndi comp 12/24/01; comp 1/23/03; am ndi comp 7/26/04; comp 8/19/06; am ndi comp 7/2/12; comp 9/25/15] (Auth HRS §291-56) (Imp: HRS §291-54; 23 CFR gawo 1235).

Ngakhale akanakhala kuti sakudziwa lamulo loletsa munthu wolumala kuyimitsa galimoto pamalo opunduka chifukwa cha kukhalapo kwa “azakhali” osaoneka, Officer Chin akanayenera kuyang’ana mmene Bambo Lexus ankatsekerezera kanjira ka olumala. ndi ramp, kenako adafunsa Grinch wodzikonda kuti achoke panjira yolowera ngati nkhani yachifundo kwa olumala.
