Recently I tried to tell you that we had an encounter at Quick Check where an unknown individual made a comment perceived as discriminatory towards me and my brother, Dale. The individual allegedly stated, "Stranger danger especially with people like this," implying a threat based on me and Dale's appearance but we are just disabled people with speech impediments. The person who said that stuff was an average customer.
I'm sorry to hear about this experience. In New York, discriminatory comments can sometimes fall under harassment or discrimination laws, especially if directed at individuals based on disabilities.
