      Many people are commenting on the arrogance of the woman who filmed this. What jumps out to me is her highly dubious claim to have a medical condition that precludes wearing a mask, and trying to claim discrimination.pic.twitter.com/MsX4P0JnzV

      It's a thing. The #COVID19 deniers and #ReOpenAmerica cultists are spreading instructions in their FB groups and other social media to falsely claim disability as an excuse not to be able to wear a mask.

          The thing is, their plea to the Americans with Disabilities Act doesn't mean that they have to be let in. Store owners can offer to gather what they want to buy and do curbside pickup, which is what some of them are doing, enraging these entitled idiots.

          Basically, the ADA says that "reasonable accommodations" must be made. That doesn't mean letting a disease vector into your store. "Reasonable accommodation" can mean curbside pickup.

          Yes the screamers forget that there such a thing as "good faith effort" that I sincerely doubt they have ever made to accommodate someone with a disability considering their mad king mocks disabilities.

          I will never cease to be amazed at people’s insistence on and ingenuity at being thoroughly loathsome.

          Adds a lot of support to projection in right wing concerns about welfare fraud, disability fraud, whatever fraud. They are just announcing what they would do in a given situation. They're just bad people. Grifters, liars and cheats.

          What disability did Karen choose to pick? I mean stupidity is the obvious case but it’s not disability. Completely curable disease. All they need is few quick science classes
