    And if I choose to terminate the sagebrush the moment I'm requested to taxi around live stock? What then?

    The ADA was not meant to apply to situations like this, even if the law can be interpreted that way.

    they aren't entitled to someone else's car.
    If I'm Muslim dogs are Haram why do Muslims have to be discriminated against?

    So you want to force others to do it. Typical of the Left.

    You could at least help why don't you?

    If a person can't control their bladder or sphincter and they **** and piss all over your car **** you live with it because they have disabilities and it should be your problem.

    Did they accept the fair before they knew they needed to drive a dog around?

    The agreement is to drive people not livestock.

    Yes, imagine someone who just got out of the hospital and is connected to a colostomy bag... and it is already filled with brown liquid. Do you want to accept that person into your brand new car?

    Imagine the person looks dazed and half out of it, and you are afraid the sack could rupture, perhaps if there is a bump in the road and the passenger bumps around, their body hitting the bag.

    If I was Muslim I'd be perfectly able to drive people around. Just not dogs.

    The law should be changed.

    Blind people should hire another ride service or taxi that they know will accept dogs. It will probably be more expensive.

    Uber's policy is to accept service dogs, the drivers should follow the rules they agreed too

    if Muslims can not follow the rules, they should not be Uber drivers

    Then how did this lady with the dog get discriminated against? The people that did could are they in jail have their cars been repossessed?

    Just so you know I discriminate against everyone I don't like with regard to my car. I can do it I've done it every day I've driven and the past 25 years.
