Many are simply lazy lard asses. They tend to leave those Walmart electric carts right in the middle of two handicap parking spaces when they leave, so the spaces can't be easily accessed by other lazy lard asses. I swore to my wife I would never get a handicap sticker, regardless. Handicapped Americans made out just fine for decades, without the stupid ADA law.

No doubt a lot of lard asses who use those things are bogus and simply lazy, but you're painting with a pretty wide (no pun intended) brush there. Lots of legit folks do greatly benefit from the convenience that the ADA provides.
To the OP, I am confident I could qualify for the handicap authorization based on my VA disability, but the last thing I'd want to do is park up close to where everyone else does. No better way to get a door ding than choosing a parking space close to the doors, handicap or not.
