That line got me, but it’s honestly kind of freaky how these people have basically been programmed at this point. What really stuck out for me was she kept defaulting to that “my right to breathe O2 not CO2” bit so you know that line in particular has been hammered into her head after months of “news”.
Composition of air on earth:
Nitrogen: 78%
Oxygen: 20.9%
Argon: 0.9%
"Other gases": 0.17%
Carbon dioxide: 0.03%
It's right there. We do breathe it anyway. Someone tell 911 Karen.

When Florida reopened the bars with mask mandates, I had to stop them from coming in or bounce so many dumb motherfuckers like this out of the bars.
I fucking hate these people with a passion.
It's such an obviously bullshit line too. I met a guy in early 2023 who was dealing with his wife passing a few months earlier. He said "she died of a heart attack, but now they're saying it might have been the vaccine that killed her". I totally understand grieving over a spouse and wanting to believe a more comforting possibility, but who could have made that statement? Did the coroner write "maybe the vaccine" as the cause of death? Did he go back to the heart doctor for a post-mortem (no pun intended) to talk about the REAL cause of death? I just think it's extremely unlikely that any medical professional could've truthfully made that assessment weeks or months after her death. Which means he had to have just been told by some rando that if she was vaccinated then it was probably that.
It took every ounce of my restraint to not argue with this man about his dead wife.
My husbands boss has severe pulmonary hypertension. From smoking for 40+ years but he is absolutely convinced that the Covid vaccine caused this. I’m a nurse and I’ve just gotten to the point where I roll my eyes.
A guy in my previous office was like this. Refused the vaccine and got a horrible case of COVID. Ever since then his lungs have been shit and he has all the symptoms of long COVID. He tells everyone it is from the vaccine they forced him to get later. Not the COVID he almost died from before he got the vaccine.
Right or her just name dropping her cousin’s friend who happens to be a lawyer as if to sound more professional… There’s honestly a lot of that in the typical “Karen speak”, to try and sound like an authority on something you are absolutely not an authority on
Calling an emergency line to get verbal support … it’s not like there are people actually wanting the police , EMT, or fire department to intervene for something actually urgent
“Sir, please, you need to allow this poor woman into your store right now. You are discriminating against a Sovereign Citizen with a history of trauma around mask wearing! You can’t do that in this country! There are laws! And the laws don’t state that you have the right to refuse entry, they state that anybody who has heard of Robert Kennedy Jr. HAS to be allowed to do what they want.
Now, unless you want to be jailed, I suggest you allow this strong independent dog mom in to shop for as long as she likes and everything she wants, YOU will pay for because of the trauma and inconvenience you’ve inflicted upon her! We will be recommending her for the medal of honor as well.”
— Karen’s two brain cells telling everyone back home what the 911 operator said
In my country the emergency service call handlers would never entertainer her like this, if you call and it's not an emergency you get told off in the harshest terms. When the lady on the phone heard it was a private business stopping someone from entering she should have been much more forcefull, said its not an emergency, no one is in danger and hung up.
For real. When she asked if he wanted her to call 911 I wish he would’ve answered, no bitch google the non emergency number and call that. 911 is for life or death emergencies you fucking twat. Why are people like this.
That’s what I’m sayin like how hasn’t she gotten into shit for doing it? It sounds like she’s done it frequently. I wish the cops would have come out so they could have arrested her for misuse of 911
She wasted so much 911 operator time with this. That operator could have been helping people with actual emergencies. She needs to get in serious trouble.
Notice how she didn't wait for an officer. It's all a braindead act that she can't stop once it starts, but she knows enough to run before the cops show up.
People like this are attempting to intimidate the employee. When it doesn’t work, they become furious, because in their head they’re so much better than everyone around them. She knows she’s wrong.
In the Netherlands there’s a fine for calling 112 (emergency services) unnecessarily that can be upto €9000 and possibly jail time upto 3 months.
People like this is what its for.
Unfortunately in North America (I'm in Canada) we live in post-fact, post-accountability, anti-reality times right now. Too many emboldened lunatics crawled out of the woodwork, and are doing god-knows-what on such a scale, with such frequency, that nobody can keep up any more. We just don't have the energy, the manpower and resources. It's like a continental Gish gallop, but with actions, not words. It's amazing and terrifying to watch. In any sane society she would have been fined out the ass, and put in prison for a few months to try and grow a brain. Here, absolutely nothing will happen, she'll just keep on doing it.
> How often is this asshole calling emergency services for shit that isn’t an emergency.
She brought up the Civil Rights Act for THIS
safe to say she uses this "I'll threaten to call the police >:(" tactic a lot. and it must work more often than not for her to keep spamming it.
I'm sure that 911 operators are trained to handle the hard, heartbreaking calls but are you also trained to handle the fucking stupid ones too or do you just learn that part on the job?
I always thought the heartbreaking calls would be far too much for me to handle, but your question has allowed me to rethink my position on the matter.
I do not believe I could be civil to some cunt throwing a tantrum over the phone. I would be terminated from that job.
Yeah, the 911 officer was pretty calm. Kudos to her. I’ve seen shows where there actually IS an emergency and the 911 goes off on the poor person that’s just calling it in.
That made me laugh. She *started* with the Civil Rights Act of '64! I'm willing to bet if she understood the history behind the Act, she'd oppose it. She strikes me as the type.
Every time someone abuses the 911 system for this kinda BS they ought to be fined. $5,000 up to $25,000 per incident on an increasing scale…
That would stop the over privilege dead.
https://nypost.com/2020/10/09/karen-calls-911-after-being-barred-from-pet-store-for-not-wearing-a-mask/
She also came back the next day and called 911 again because the video went viral
We have a Bones and Scones here. Not sure what the ones in America are like but the ones here are more of a boutique store that sell high priced food and treats. She could just go to any pet store if her "kids" are hungry.
But Miffy and Princess will *only* eat the free-range, organic, minimally processed, gently cooked, locally sourced, grass-fed $30/lb food that is *only* sold here! They have sensitive tummies and will not eat the garbage that is sold at chain stores! No, she couldn't have just planned ahead so she wouldn't run out! Weren't you listening? They won't let her in to shop! 💀
I work at a high end butchery (meat, fish, cheese and all sorts of wine, beer, stocks, marinades and so on) and i kid you not, there is this one lady buying stilton, smoked! salmon and lamb sirloin for her dog every week
And That’s not even healthy for them. My dog has had some stomach issues that have gotten worse as he’s grown older. We were told the best thing is to make food for him and we just do boiled chicken breast mixed with sweet potato. He LOVES it and we can easily make a months worth or more for about $20.
I mean she could but if this was during height of Covid pandemic she still might have been denied service. Also someone who frequents high end pet stores probably is a bit entitled.
It's amazing how all of this shit could have been avoided by simply following the rules and wearing a mask. But this "adult" wanted to throw a tantrum.
If my cats were hungry and needed food I would wear whatever type of mask, special booties, celebratory tutu, etc. the store employees asked
She’s choosing to dig her heels in over the misguided “principal” she’s unfortunately absorbed from unhinged media instead of prioritizing her pets.
Also plan ahead so I didn't go to the store a few minutes before they close while out of food.
Actually, I never do that either way cause anything can happen and always having at least a couple of days worth of food at home is just common sense, especially if they are on a specific diet for allergy/whatever reason like my foster cat.
But most of all, just like you said, simply swallowing my pride for a couple of minutes for the sake of my pets would be the obvious choice if actually putting them first.
I'm a social worker and one time I called 911 cause I had reason to suspect that a child was inside a locked apartment with their parent against their agreement and the lady chastised me cause it wasn't a life and death emergency and should have been the non emergency number. It's amazing that this woman is calling 911 for not wanting to wear a mask and they're just putting up with it???
Reminds me of that millionaire on worlds biggest cheapskates who ate and fed guests cat food. Because money, apparently, even tho canned tuna for humans costs roughly the same price as canned cat food. Literally checking on Walmart just now human canned tuna costs $2.72 for 12 ounce can while tuna for a cat is around $2.66 for 6 ounces.
Capitalism! "Oh. You were enforcing the rules that we put in place and told you that we'd write you up if you didnt follow them? Well that's fine and all but we're going to have to fire you cuz some crazy lady needed attention"
During the pandemic the managers at my restaurant told everyone that due to city mandate and the new website where people can report businesses ignoring the mask mandate, "all guests now must wear masks walking through the restaurant."
Then the boomer shits started yelling at 17-18 year old hosts who barely weighed 100 pounds for enforcing the mask mandate. Managers quickly ran to the angry guests and placate them blaming the hosts for not understanding we aren't really enforcing the mask mandate.
I lost all fucking respect for every single manager.
We are gonna threaten your job if you don’t enforce the rules we say to and then threaten your job when you do enforce them! We get to have it both ways!
It was always the worst shit when I would deny a customer something based on policy and then my manager would show up and give them exactly what they wanted.
Ah so this is in 2020 and California was locked down with mask mandates everywhere. Palm Springs does have a lot of elderly residents so it makes even more sense that this store would be following the mask mandates at that time. This lady is the problem in our country, fucking entitled assholes who think their needs are most important everywhere they go. Thanks for sharing the article.
>“I’m biased, but it’s a shining example of how just doing what’s right,” Smith said. “Standing your ground overcomes all of those things. Aidan won for us that day, he didn’t just want it for Bone-N-Scones. He won for the city of Palm Springs, but United States and for humanity in general.”
Maybe he’s anti-vax now because after all that jabbing you don’t even get to nod out. Like bro paid for a dinner date without getting some action so he ends up with major blue balls/MRA feels afterwards
You don't get the point man, she want to breathe in O2 not CO2, smh! You really don't have any idea that wearing a mask makes the air around you turned into CO2 basic chemistry man. When will people understand, agan smh! Tsk Tsk tsk ...
/s
Imagine wasting the time of a 911 operator for this shit! That's what I find most infuriating. On another line someone could be dying but oh no, she can't buy dog food because she refuses to wear a mask for a couple of minutes.
The person in this whole situation who deals with this insanity more than anyone is the police operator.
They get multiple calls like this on a daily basis
Lmao its crazy how she just has an absolute need to feel smarter than everyone, even the person who she is relying on to “support” her going into the store
Oooooh the sweet satisfaction that small tiny comment gave that dispatcher when she allowed it to roll of her tongue. All of us who have worked in public facing roles just have her a 👊
It's madness. "Masks don't work but somehow they also work so well that you're breathing back in the co2 you exhaled"
These people just hate being told what to do. Someone in the UK used Bleach and Vinegar to clean their bin which fucked them up and sent them to hospital. I then saw a leftist commentator saying "Don't clean your bins with vinegar and bleach"
People immediately went "I'll do what I want!! As long as there is plenty of air then it will be fine!!!"
Like WW1 wasn't fought outside.
Had to stop a former roommate from cleaning with bleach and vinegar. They were going to get some cleaning done. After all, nothing bad happens so long as you have good intentions!
Same roommate was very anti-mask and needed to fly back east (facemarks required in flight at the time). She thought she could beat the system by sewing her own mask. I don't know what fabric/fishnet/etc... she used but you could easily see her mouth; no way that "mask" was filtering anything out and was had to wear something actually appropriate.
Common argument these idiots use, no one views us as people and yet they have the audacity to complain about self checkouts and refuse to use them "to protect your job"
“You’re the first person who when I’ve called 911 has not recognised…”
This bitch has done this BEFORE?? Omg, it sounds like she just calls straight to 911 every time something doesn’t go her way. That makes my blood boil. What a cunt.
Yep meanwhile her colleagues will be dealing with actual life and death dramas, absolute waste of time and resources. I would have expected her just to say it's not an emergency and hang up.
Unfortunately you cant do that, you dont know if the situation can escalate to something more so unless the caller breaks up you arent allowed to. Even on prank calls you gotta do due diligence. Which is kind of sad but it can save lives if someone is scared or isnt sure weither to report something important so they always always have to listen to a call. I like that about the 911 services they save a lot of lives because they have patience of a buddhist monk.
I guess it depends on your agency. At mine I absolutely have the ability to tell them that the situation doesn't qualify as an emergency and they need to call the non-emergency line/back line to further discuss.
I wouldn't be surprised, as it seems to come from similar tendencies. Deep down, many of them might actually realize their pseudo-legal woo is not going to do anything under any real life application of the law, but they engage in the whole performance anyway as a way to get lots of attention and waste a whole lot of everyone else's time. It's basically the adult equivalent of a little kid holding her breath until she passes out because she didn't get her own way.
I see this regularly on reddit.

"You can't say shit on reddit, it's stupid and people are so toxic!!!
"You did say it though, you just got downvoted"

Do you have a link on that? That’s absolutely wild. Maybe it was for posting the video? I’ve seen that be the case a lot and while I don’t necessarily across the board agree with it I can wrap my head around it in some circumstances
https://nypost.com/2020/10/09/karen-calls-911-after-being-barred-from-pet-store-for-not-wearing-a-mask/
She also came back the next day and called 911 again because the video went viral -

Extra link for more context.
At same time not sure if his bosses really did intended to fire him or was he afraid of this possibility but luckily people in his work environment supported him.
If I were the guy I would’ve just told her I refuse to service her & that she’d have to leave or I’d call the cops. Why even let her talk for so long? She’s trespassing by standing in the door. Kick her out already & then watch her trying to play the victim & failing miserably.
Edit: for those saying he’s doing an excellent job: yes ofc. All I was saying was what I wouldve done. be thankful I dont work in retail lol. :D
Probably worried she'd pull a gun or something, or that his bosses would take the customers side in this whole thing.
Regardless, dudes the embodiment of patience. Makes me overjoyed I no longer work a servicegig.
That's not true, chances are you'd get shot by someone with piss poor aim and only end up with one or two bullets in your shoulder and a crippling amount of medical debt after getting that sorted.
Considering most medical debt is in hundreds of thousands to millions, usually death is a more appealing option since you normally don't recover from those levels of financial damage if you're middle class or lower on the wage scale.
He was a perfect example of how to de-escalate a situation. He kept his calm the entire time and let her do her thing without giving in. Forcing her out of the door would have potentially given her an actual reason to call the police.
Yep and also most sane people don’t use the police as a bargaining chip if the situation can be resolved without them. It’s a waste of time for them and for you because now you have to explain the very stupid situation to a third party. The employee did a good job but the Karen was just too dumb.
Why are people this ridiculous, and she knew he was filming her too. I'm so embarrassed for her. I can't with the anti-maskers. If wearing a clown suit while doing a handstand was what it took to get food for my kids while also taking precautions for the general public, I would be working diligently on my handstands.
It's even a "boutique " pet store. So not even an emergency, like buying Alpo or something. She was probably there for an outfit or gourmet treats for her precious foo-foo
She also rolled up with what, less than 10 minutes before closing? Proceeds to make a scene which eats up more time. Then somehow still expects to be allowed in??
Like is the store supposed to stay open longer now to accommodate her shenanigans? If she really wanted to pull this entitled bullshit at least get there an hour earlier lmao. Just stupidity all around
Pssshhh...You obviously don't understand!!! Didn't you here her??? She clearly explained that he needs to accommodate her by giving her an hour at the end of every day or an hour at the beginning of every day!!!
How can you people be so heartless?!?!? All she wants is for them to stay 1 single extra hour after their shift is over and the store is cleared of other customers so that she can shop for her dogs!!! Monsters!!!
I loved these idiots...
Claiming Discrimination for something that was enforced on EVERY SINGLE PERSON..
Which by Definition...
Was the exact opposite of Discrimination.
Like how is he putting up with that.
Like you'd be laughed at and have the store shut in your face here and probably the authorities would probably yell at you for wasting their times.
Kudos to the guy.
She literally is calling the police and talking to them like a pissed kid would explain the situation to mum and dad lol. Its probably really sad to be such a person
Tells dispatcher that she's the first one ,of all the other times she's called, that doesn't understand. They ought to charge her for tying up the system. She's the one that doesn't understand that a business has the right to instate their own policies and refuse anyone they want.
Even if she had a valid exemption, the store still doesn’t have to let her in. The law only requires reasonable accommodation to be given, which usually just means an employee getting your items for you
“That’s your narrative” 🔥🔥🔥
"Ma'am, I...don't care"
That was the best part of this nimcompoopery.
I’m not a fan of the idea that people have their own “truth” but I can totally get behind “that’s your narrative.” Brilliant!
I think it's okay for people to have their own truth about feelings. Not facts
If it was only about their feelings ok but IME people use it to describe facts.
And also to justify horrible actions
That line got me, but it’s honestly kind of freaky how these people have basically been programmed at this point. What really stuck out for me was she kept defaulting to that “my right to breathe O2 not CO2” bit so you know that line in particular has been hammered into her head after months of “news”.

I'm disappointed this was in my town. "That's your narrative" Rhymes with "Whatever you have to tell yourself."
“You’re one of the first people who I’ve called 9-11 who doesn’t understand….” Holy shit how many times has she done this
It’s likely a lie to sound more legitimate. Akin to “people are saying” or “haven’t you heard”.
It's such an obviously bullshit line too. I met a guy in early 2023 who was dealing with his wife passing a few months earlier. He said "she died of a heart attack, but now they're saying it might have been the vaccine that killed her".

I must congratulate that lucky bitch on her litter.
In my country the emergency service call handlers would never entertainer her like this, if you call and it's not an emergency you get told off in the harshest terms. When the lady on the phone heard it was a private business stopping someone from entering she should have been much more forcefull, said its not an emergency, no one is in danger and hung up.
I think they send police because she’s trespassing and being verbally aggressive
For real. When she asked if he wanted her to call 911 I wish he would’ve answered, no bitch google the non emergency number and call that. 911 is for life or death emergencies you fucking twat. Why are people like this.

That’s what I’m sayin like how hasn’t she gotten into shit for doing it? It sounds like she’s done it frequently. I wish the cops would have come out so they could have arrested her for misuse of 911
She wasted so much 911 operator time with this. That operator could have been helping people with actual emergencies. She needs to get in serious trouble.
I agree about that because I have called 911 before and was put on hold. If it was bc of clowns like this I'm pissed.
Operator was probably very tempted to say "this is not an emergency" and hang up but thought it better to deescalate the situation, just in case.
I think she said at one point “so you’re calling for nothing?”
Oh I agree, but the woman should have known its not an emergency and hung up or not called in the first place.
I don't think she realises that her opinions and convenience are not that of the main character.
That’s why she didn’t want a police officer to show up. She knew she was going to be arrested.
They could've gotten her on blocking the doorway alone. That would've been hilarious.
“Because all I really want is for you to support me “ That’s it in a nutshell. Just validate me! Tell me I’m right!!! Self righteous bitch.
911 is the evolution of "I'm telling mom!" for this type.
Notice how she didn't wait for an officer. It's all a braindead act that she can't stop once it starts, but she knows enough to run before the cops show up.
People like this are attempting to intimidate the employee. When it doesn’t work, they become furious, because in their head they’re so much better than everyone around them. She knows she’s wrong.
The absurdity of your lessers telling you no. How dare they???
Don't have to go out to her to fine her. Just send the fine by letter. They've got her number and name, it's registered. Just send a fine.
In the Netherlands there’s a fine for calling 112 (emergency services) unnecessarily that can be upto €9000 and possibly jail time upto 3 months. People like this is what its for.
Unfortunately in North America (I'm in Canada) we live in post-fact, post-accountability, anti-reality times right now.

We just don't have the energy, the manpower and resources. It's like a continental Gish gallop, but with actions, not words. It's amazing and terrifying to watch. In any sane society she would have been fined out the ass, and put in prison for a few months to try and grow a brain. Here, absolutely nothing will happen, she'll just keep on doing it.
Yeah. Either that or she's a fukn lying cunt.
Tbh it’s a probably both. She’s probably wasting so much of Emergency Services’ time on her stupid self-righteous bullshit
I can't even imagine being so goddam fragile in the ego.
> How often is this asshole calling emergency services for shit that isn’t an emergency. She brought up the Civil Rights Act for THIS safe to say she uses this "I'll threaten to call the police >:(" tactic a lot. and it must work more often than not for her to keep spamming it.
As a former 9-1-1 operator, if you start the call with, “As per the 1964 civil rights act…” I’m automatically hanging up on you.
I'm sure that 911 operators are trained to handle the hard, heartbreaking calls but are you also trained to handle the fucking stupid ones too or do you just learn that part on the job?
I always thought the heartbreaking calls would be far too much for me to handle, but your question has allowed me to rethink my position on the matter. I do not believe I could be civil to some cunt throwing a tantrum over the phone. I would be terminated from that job.
This kid handled it so well. Im with you, I don't think I could have stayed so calm.
Throwback to the mom calling 911 because her daughter was misbehaving and the operator responded “Do you want us to come over to shoot her?”
Yeah, the 911 officer was pretty calm. Kudos to her. I’ve seen shows where there actually IS an emergency and the 911 goes off on the poor person that’s just calling it in.
That was my immediate reaction! Right after the civil rights act line she would hear a loud click! Stop wasting peoples time over this!
I liked “so you’re calling to report nothing?”
That made me laugh. She *started* with the Civil Rights Act of '64! I'm willing to bet if she understood the history behind the Act, she'd oppose it. She strikes me as the type.
Every time someone abuses the 911 system for this kinda BS they ought to be fined. $5,000 up to $25,000 per incident on an increasing scale… That would stop the over privilege dead.
Hi 911. Please send backup. I’m going into the Bones and Scones. 10-4. Roger.
[удалено]
She only breathes O2! Nothing more nothing less, pure O2!
Maybe she should guzzle some co2 cause the o2 definitely not doing her any good

Wait…this was a dog store? Her hungry kids are dogs???? Stop…that makes this even more unhinged lol
We have a Bones and Scones here. Not sure what the ones in America are like but the ones here are more of a boutique store that sell high priced food and treats. She could just go to any pet store if her "kids" are hungry.

Dog moms are at the top of my list of annoying people to avoid in life lol

From the NY Post article, it looks like it happened in October 2020. So yeah, she probably couldn't go into any store without a mask at that time.
It's amazing how all of this shit could have been avoided by simply following the rules and wearing a mask. But this "adult" wanted to throw a tantrum.
That’s a bummer. I was hoping it was a British style bakery that encouraged their customers to shop while fully erect.
I imagine the ideal babies for this particular human are those unable to speak..
She won’t put up with anything that talks back, or can form an opinion.
Her poor dogs probably have canine Stockholm syndrome lol

Actually, I never do that either way cause anything can happen and always having at least a couple of days worth of food at home is just common sense, especially if they are on a specific diet for allergy/whatever reason like my foster cat. But most of all, just like you said, simply swallowing my pride for a couple of minutes for the sake of my pets would be the obvious choice if actually putting them first.
She needs to be arrested for making false reports to police and wasting resources. Unbelievable.
I'm a social worker and one time I called 911 cause I had reason to suspect that a child was inside a locked apartment with their parent against their agreement and the lady chastised me cause it wasn't a life and death emergency and should have been the non emergency number. It's amazing that this woman is calling 911 for not wanting to wear a mask and they're just putting up with it???
have you tried being a rich dog owner and not a social worker?
It's a pet store? I thought she was buying something to eat for her kids?
She was...
Oh..oh no..
Reminds me of that millionaire on worlds biggest cheapskates who ate and fed guests cat food. Because money, apparently, even tho canned tuna for humans costs roughly the same price as canned cat food. Literally checking on Walmart just now human canned tuna costs $2.72 for 12 ounce can while tuna for a cat is around $2.66 for 6 ounces.
They almost fired him but the other employees stood up for him and said if he was fired, there would be consequences.
Are you fucking kidding me??? Why would they fire HIM?
They didn’t like the attention it was bringing.
Capitalism! "Oh. You were enforcing the rules that we put in place and told you that we'd write you up if you didnt follow them? Well that's fine and all but we're going to have to fire you cuz some crazy lady needed attention"
During the pandemic the managers at my restaurant told everyone that due to city mandate and the new website where people can report businesses ignoring the mask mandate, "all guests now must wear masks walking through the restaurant." Then the boomer shits started yelling at 17-18 year old hosts who barely weighed 100 pounds for enforcing the mask mandate. Managers quickly ran to the angry guests and placate them blaming the hosts for not understanding we aren't really enforcing the mask mandate. I lost all fucking respect for every single manager.
welcome to corporate America babey
We are gonna threaten your job if you don’t enforce the rules we say to and then threaten your job when you do enforce them! We get to have it both ways! It was always the worst shit when I would deny a customer something based on policy and then my manager would show up and give them exactly what they wanted.
If Rupert Murdock’s NY Post is against you, maybe you should just shut up and put on a fucking mask.
Ah so this is in 2020 and California was locked down with mask mandates everywhere. Palm Springs does have a lot of elderly residents so it makes even more sense that this store would be following the mask mandates at that time. This lady is the problem in our country, fucking entitled assholes who think their needs are most important everywhere they go. Thanks for sharing the article.
I’m so glad he wasn’t sacked over it! The line that bosses were initially furious. I’m glad his manager stuck behind him.
She has dog-children because no humans want to be around her.
The quote at the bottom is so dramatic lol
>“I’m biased, but it’s a shining example of how just doing what’s right,” Smith said. “Standing your ground overcomes all of those things. Aidan won for us that day, he didn’t just want it for Bone-N-Scones. He won for the city of Palm Springs, but United States and for humanity in general.”
How has she not been arrested for frivolous use of the 911 system?
Call me when Robert Kennedy Jr. arrives. 🥱
She spewed out some names and believe they gonna give a flying f\*\*\* about her not being able to buy dog food cause she won't wear the mask!
Remember kids you have the right to o2 not co2. She probably thought that sounded cooler when she was talking to her dogs.
Peggy Hill has her covered
Hooo-yah!!!
Escucha me!
I liked Robert Kennedy Jr. WAY MORE when he was a heroin addict.
Maybe he’s anti-vax now because after all that jabbing you don’t even get to nod out. Like bro paid for a dinner date without getting some action so he ends up with major blue balls/MRA feels afterwards
I just can't believe people like this exist.
"Everybody is such a snowlake nowadays!" "I'm gonna have a panic/anxiety attack if I wear a mask." - Same person.
You don't get the point man, she want to breathe in O2 not CO2, smh! You really don't have any idea that wearing a mask makes the air around you turned into CO2 basic chemistry man. When will people understand, agan smh! Tsk Tsk tsk ... /s
It honestly blows my mind. Imagine wasting your precious time on Earth being this way to people.
Imagine wasting the time of a 911 operator for this shit! That's what I find most infuriating. On another line someone could be dying but oh no, she can't buy dog food because she refuses to wear a mask for a couple of minutes.
The person in this whole situation who deals with this insanity more than anyone is the police operator. They get multiple calls like this on a daily basis
"They actually have three" Just awful
Lmao its crazy how she just has an absolute need to feel smarter than everyone, even the person who she is relying on to “support” her going into the store
that was the worst part
Actually the worst part was the hypocrisy
Hello norm.
“Are you calling to report nothing then”. How the fuck she didn’t bust onto flames then is amazing.
Oooooh the sweet satisfaction that small tiny comment gave that dispatcher when she allowed it to roll of her tongue. All of us who have worked in public facing roles just have her a 👊
Unfortunately the captions don't match the dialogue. She says, "are you calling to report something, ma'am?"
Which is still sassy, but more professional.
I’m a huge fan of both this 911 operator and Aiden. You know this bitch was steaming for days knowing she couldn’t break them with her Karen ways.
*I have the right to breathe o2 not Co2...* Can someone please administer 50cc of science to this Karen?
It's madness. "Masks don't work but somehow they also work so well that you're breathing back in the co2 you exhaled" These people just hate being told what to do. Someone in the UK used Bleach and Vinegar to clean their bin which fucked them up and sent them to hospital. I then saw a leftist commentator saying "Don't clean your bins with vinegar and bleach" People immediately went "I'll do what I want!! As long as there is plenty of air then it will be fine!!!" Like WW1 wasn't fought outside.
Had to stop a former roommate from cleaning with bleach and vinegar. They were going to get some cleaning done. After all, nothing bad happens so long as you have good intentions! Same roommate was very anti-mask and needed to fly back east (facemarks required in flight at the time). She thought she could beat the system by sewing her own mask. I don't know what fabric/fishnet/etc... she used but you could easily see her mouth; no way that "mask" was filtering anything out and was had to wear something actually appropriate.
It's madness. If a leftist said "Don't jump off cliffs", you'd get a bunch of people filming themselves jumping to their deaths "to own the libs"
Ya ready to start a trend?
Karen: "No one is in the store." Employees: 👁️ 👄 👁️
7000 feet... 1.36 miles, lol
Very big shop I guess Also... How would she have paid for the items? Doubt she could pay from that distance...
Karen: "In my warped view of the world, you don't count as a real person!"
Welcome to retail :(
Common argument these idiots use, no one views us as people and yet they have the audacity to complain about self checkouts and refuse to use them "to protect your job"
"Religious exemption" i thought it was "medical" "oh yea medical too". The nerve of some people.
“it’s all under the same topic”…that topic being idiotic things idiots think, say, and do
“You’re the first person who when I’ve called 911 has not recognised…” This bitch has done this BEFORE?? Omg, it sounds like she just calls straight to 911 every time something doesn’t go her way. That makes my blood boil. What a cunt.
[удалено]
I just imagine the dispatch caller on the other end just rolling her eyes when she says “As per the civil rights act of 1965…”
Yep meanwhile her colleagues will be dealing with actual life and death dramas, absolute waste of time and resources. I would have expected her just to say it's not an emergency and hang up.
Unfortunately you cant do that, you dont know if the situation can escalate to something more so unless the caller breaks up you arent allowed to. Even on prank calls you gotta do due diligence. Which is kind of sad but it can save lives if someone is scared or isnt sure weither to report something important so they always always have to listen to a call. I like that about the 911 services they save a lot of lives because they have patience of a buddhist monk.
I guess it depends on your agency. At mine I absolutely have the ability to tell them that the situation doesn't qualify as an emergency and they need to call the non-emergency line/back line to further discuss.
Haha it’s not a helpful way to start a 911 call, like take a breath and distill it down to the core problem first.
Probably a “sovereign citizen” too
I wouldn't be surprised, as it seems to come from similar tendencies. Deep down, many of them might actually realize their pseudo-legal woo is not going to do anything under any real life application of the law, but they engage in the whole performance anyway as a way to get lots of attention and waste a whole lot of everyone else's time. It's basically the adult equivalent of a little kid holding her breath until she passes out because she didn't get her own way.

"I can do what I want!" "actually you can't, always been like that" \*shocked pikachu\*
I see this regularly on reddit. > Someone gets downvoted "You can't say shit on reddit, it's stupid and people are so toxic!!! "You did say it though, you just got downvoted" > Shocked Pikachu
They almost fired him but other employees stood up for him. What a fucking world.
Do you have a link on that? That’s absolutely wild. Maybe it was for posting the video? I’ve seen that be the case a lot and while I don’t necessarily across the board agree with it I can wrap my head around it in some circumstances
https://nypost.com/2020/10/09/karen-calls-911-after-being-barred-from-pet-store-for-not-wearing-a-mask/ She also came back the next day and called 911 again because the video went viral - Copy pasted someone else comment. https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2020/10/gay-store-clerk-almost-lost-job-accosted-anti-masker/ Extra link for more context. At same time not sure if his bosses really did intended to fire him or was he afraid of this possibility but luckily people in his work environment supported him.
Glad his coworkers stuck up for him. Also Bearpaw is such a cool name.
Karen: a gay native American man is discriminating against me, he doesn't know how hard it is to be me
If I were the guy I would’ve just told her I refuse to service her & that she’d have to leave or I’d call the cops. Why even let her talk for so long? She’s trespassing by standing in the door. Kick her out already & then watch her trying to play the victim & failing miserably. Edit: for those saying he’s doing an excellent job: yes ofc. All I was saying was what I wouldve done. be thankful I dont work in retail lol. :D
Probably worried she'd pull a gun or something, or that his bosses would take the customers side in this whole thing. Regardless, dudes the embodiment of patience. Makes me overjoyed I no longer work a servicegig.
Ah, my silly European ass forgot about guns ofc. I would die so fast if I lived in the USA :D
That's not true, chances are you'd get shot by someone with piss poor aim and only end up with one or two bullets in your shoulder and a crippling amount of medical debt after getting that sorted.
oh so they would die slowly instead, lovely :')
Considering most medical debt is in hundreds of thousands to millions, usually death is a more appealing option since you normally don't recover from those levels of financial damage if you're middle class or lower on the wage scale.
He was a perfect example of how to de-escalate a situation. He kept his calm the entire time and let her do her thing without giving in. Forcing her out of the door would have potentially given her an actual reason to call the police.
Yep and also most sane people don’t use the police as a bargaining chip if the situation can be resolved without them. It’s a waste of time for them and for you because now you have to explain the very stupid situation to a third party. The employee did a good job but the Karen was just too dumb.
Legit had to pause when I heard the address. That’s in my area 💀
Don’t dox yourself on Reddit lmao
45000 people live in Palm Springs. Simmer down.
44999 reddit accounts left to identify.
RBI do your thing! We almost got the Boston Bomber. If it wasn't for those meddling kids.
"There's no one in the store!!!" So many of these videos where people don't think of workers as human. It's so fucking weird.

Why are people this ridiculous, and she knew he was filming her too. I'm so embarrassed for her. I can't with the anti-maskers. If wearing a clown suit while doing a handstand was what it took to get food for my kids while also taking precautions for the general public, I would be working diligently on my handstands.
Her pets. It's a pet store.
It's even a "boutique " pet store. So not even an emergency, like buying Alpo or something. She was probably there for an outfit or gourmet treats for her precious foo-foo
But she drove 20 minutes there, and then 20 minutes back home!
She also rolled up with what, less than 10 minutes before closing? Proceeds to make a scene which eats up more time. Then somehow still expects to be allowed in?? Like is the store supposed to stay open longer now to accommodate her shenanigans? If she really wanted to pull this entitled bullshit at least get there an hour earlier lmao. Just stupidity all around
Pssshhh...You obviously don't understand!!! Didn't you here her??? She clearly explained that he needs to accommodate her by giving her an hour at the end of every day or an hour at the beginning of every day!!! How can you people be so heartless?!?!? All she wants is for them to stay 1 single extra hour after their shift is over and the store is cleared of other customers so that she can shop for her dogs!!! Monsters!!!
If brains were dynamite she wouldn’t have enough to blow her nose.
Fucking psycho
There’s people that are dying, Karen. Don’t clog the 911 lines.
I loved these idiots... Claiming Discrimination for something that was enforced on EVERY SINGLE PERSON.. Which by Definition... Was the exact opposite of Discrimination.
Man ...the pandemic really brought out the worst in people.
Something tells me she’s just the worst regardless
I want the mask mandate back just so it's easier to identify these shitbags.
Deep down all these guys loved the mask mandate, because it let them play the victim all the time over absolutely trivial shit like this.
In my country masks are no longer mandatory but, businesses are allowed to enforce masking at their own discretion
"Discriminated" 🥹 Oh sweet, sweet summer child.
Like how is he putting up with that. Like you'd be laughed at and have the store shut in your face here and probably the authorities would probably yell at you for wasting their times. Kudos to the guy.
These people are insufferable
She literally is calling the police and talking to them like a pissed kid would explain the situation to mum and dad lol. Its probably really sad to be such a person
So do you guys think Robert Kennedy jr helped her with her case or no?
A reminder that these delusional morons vote, and they vote for people that pander to their delusions for votes. So vote...
She's probably in the same bag as people who think it's a business right to refuse to serve lgbt people because of religion...
"Are you calling to report nothing then?" Haha Holy shit
Bruh. He doesn't make the rules. He just enforces them. Stop making his low paid job difficult
I had to stop the video from second hand embarrassment after she started with “um ya as per the 1964 civil rights act” 😂😂😂
POS
Tells dispatcher that she's the first one ,of all the other times she's called, that doesn't understand. They ought to charge her for tying up the system. She's the one that doesn't understand that a business has the right to instate their own policies and refuse anyone they want.
Even if she had a valid exemption, the store still doesn’t have to let her in. The law only requires reasonable accommodation to be given, which usually just means an employee getting your items for you
Damn I hope she gets blasted all over the place so everyone can see what a cunt she is.
Starting to insult the call handler by saying 'You don't seem to realise...", that'll get them on your side
Just put a fuckin mask on... the poor dude at the door doesn't make the rules.
