Blind woman is awarded 10k after suing Hertz for charging her a $150 cleaning fee. Such an interesting case because the social media response is so disheartening. People are siding with the 20B company instead of the blind lady. www.kildare-nationalist.ie/news/hertz-o...

Wet dog smells nasty and you should clean up after pets. But guide dogs aren't pets, they're extensions of your senses. If you let companies charge they will. Should a blind person be charged $150 every time they ride in a cab? Now you're excluding them from society. Laws exist to prevent that.
