How do you think this should go? Air B & B guests suing host because her disability triggered them

[ronandannette]

So where you are from it's OK to force a person out of their home due to bigoted discomfort of their guests?

Yours is a curious position, but this ain't my first rodeo so with complete acceptance and no desire to rebut or change your mind on my part, your sentiment is considered a 'for' on the side of the renters.

Well, that wasn’t the premise of the suit, which has now been revealed as a hoax perpetrated by a mentally unstable person, it was the (imaginary) guest suing the (imaginary) resident of the home for not having disclosed the fact that she was (imaginarily) disabled, which (imaginarily) triggered anxiety. And yes, I stand by the idea that if it had been real, the lawsuit was absolutely ridiculous.

Maybe you thought it was something else - the articles that were viewable were mostly garbled nonsense.

Not about the lawsuit, the idea is equally useful as a jumping off point.

I'm more interested in what people would think about such a thing that the actual thing

Nice try.

Not always. I’ve done AirBnb a couple of times (for extend month or longer stays - twice when I moved to a new country and wanted to be able to take some time to find somewhere to rent longer term) and always had the entire apartment I was renting (both in the US and in Europe).

I agree - I've used both Air Bnb as well as VRBO and we've never stayed somewhere where the owners were present. It's always noted in the description of the rental units and I would personally never choose to share a space, especially if we're on vacation.

So, you used her post and pretended it said the opposite of what she actually said, as a "jumping off point"? In order to attack the other poster. Got it. Seems like an odd choice, but got it.

No, I didn't create the story. I read it and accepted it as interesting. I labeled it where do you think this should land, and that question is as valid if it is real as if it is not.

I'm actually now far more curious about your venom than the question at this point. Like, just, why? I'm fairly indifferent but you, well, are not.

I have a disability and get dirty looks all the time so where people land is of interest

You literally quoted someone and (after turning what she said into the opposite of what she said) accused her of being bigoted and against those that are disabled. And you don't get why people may take this badly?

It has nothing to do with whether the case was real or not but your attack on another poster.
