    The pronunciation has nothing to do with laziness or race; it has to do with dialect, which is a subsystem of a main language. It does not reflect on personal characteristics of a person. Would you label a person from the Bronx lazy if he said qwater instead of quarter?

    I am very open-minded, so I wouldn’t be afraid of a man in a wheelchair, but I may worry about my being “overprotective” and “overly nurturing.” That may insult the person. I’ve never met anyone in a wheelchair, but I had a college roomie who was blind from birth. She was a gift to me.
