[nagdu] Lyft/Uber and Service Animal Access

[Star Gazer via nagdu]

I wonder what other laws they're breaking, like labor laws, tax laws, safety
laws, that sort of thing. If they'll break one law, guaranteed they will
break others.

When I hear about these private contractors refusing to take one of us
because of a guide dog, I always wonder if they feel they could also refuse
to take, say, an African-American person, or a woman.  Either way, it's a
matter of a person's civil rights.
