Edit|Today's Affair
It has been said that the history of a nation can be turned over from the pocket of a veteran. Inside, there is not only a yellowed military merit medal, but also a preferential treatment card that seems ordinary, but contains infinite glory. However, when this document is swept away in real life and told that "that thing is not good", it is not only a denial of a card, but also a neglect of a piece of history. Hear what happened to the 70-year-old veteran on a bus in Shenyang and see what we've forgotten.
On an ordinary weekend, an extraordinary story unfolded inside a bus on the streets of Shenyang. The protagonist is a 70-year-old veteran who holds a government-issued veteran's card and thinks he can ride the bus for free as usual, but the driver refuses.
At first, the veteran thought that the driver didn't see it clearly, so he patiently explained, but the driver sneered: "What's the horn, you are a soldier? I am also a soldier, that thing is not good, what do you keep doing with it, or you will go down." This sentence not only stunned the veteran on the spot, but also made the passengers in the car feel stunned.
This incident quickly sparked heated discussions on the Internet, and many netizens expressed their support for the veteran. Someone said: "Don't be afraid, a 70-year-old veteran, you are in the state car, and the one who gets off should be the driver." Some people also sighed: "The military preferential treatment card is originally an honor, why did it become a trouble when you got here?"
This incident is not only a debate about the validity of preferential treatment cards, but also touches the public's deep thinking about the respect that veterans should be respected. Veterans were the heroes of the country, and it is because they stick to their posts that we can enjoy a peaceful life. Why is there such a gap in the respect and convenience that they should enjoy after retirement?
In fact, similar controversies are not unique. The acceptance and scope of application of the veterans' preferential treatment card varies greatly in different regions, which has led to many misunderstandings and disputes. Even so, the driver's attitude and remarks undoubtedly exacerbated the veteran's embarrassment and helplessness, which is not only disrespectful to the individual, but also reflects the lack of social care for this special group.
As we celebrate heroes and remember history, we should not forget the veterans who still live with us. Their dedication should not be forgotten by society after retirement. Respect and understanding should be the basic qualities of every member of society. For this incident, perhaps what we can do is not only to speak out on the Internet, but also to pay attention to and improve the actual treatment of veterans. Let this preferential treatment card truly become a certificate of dignity that will not be rejected.
