This is horrifying – not only the risk of it happening, the risk of it happening and not being told. I had a similar incident where my back cushion was slashed and was told “it was already like that”.

If that happened to me, the cops would have to be called…on me. Those who’d broken my chair would find out that my muscles aren’t weak. Breaking my chair would be like if my legs were broken by someone else.
