2. Between the stereotyping "a Karen" and the feeling (maybe only imagined by me? I hope so) that someone is a little gleeful over the woman getting death threats, this seems like a really horrible story.
Karen - err, Amber - was claiming she was exempt from the mask requirement thanks to the first amendment, something she clearly did not understand. She then proceeded to try to sue Gutierrez for half of the proceeds for the GoFundMe campaign citing that it’s her involvement that caused his windfall. So... maybe she could benefit from learning that actions have consequences.

She was also quoted as saying she has a medical exemption, but has not offered any proof that is true. Even if true, companies could still refuse her service as being Karen with a doctor's note is not a "protected class".:-)

Man these people are wild. I really thought the legal-woo stuff started and ended with the "sovereign citizen" whackos, but apparently not.
These guys carry cards around citing a law that says , uh, health insurance companies, aren't supposed to breach customers privacy and think it mean
This is one of those things government needs to stamp out in a big, visible way. And yes it's a selfish thing for people to do just to get out of wearing a mask.
Government in this case is Trump who has threatened to sue states on behalf of these wackos' right to unmask.
History is not going to forget this mans actions in 2020. He must surrely realise that 130,000 dead (Sometime today it should hit that) and counting isn't just consequences you simply walk away from?
Why not? George W. Bush is responsible for more deaths than that in Iraq that he started because of "WMDs" that we've never seen the proof of and yet he's never been held responsible for them. If fact, I've noticed that many times in comment sections all that you will hear is the 1,000's of American deaths in that war when an American makes a statement. That may be because that's all the US news reports. Rarely if ever did they talk about the Iraqi deaths and casualties.
