[citation][nom]evilsizer[/nom]When I get these, I'm going to have them with a prescription.Try and stop me Albertsons, Winn-Dixie, or 5 Point Cafe'. You cannot require someone to have a spare pair of glasses. You also cannot require someone to remove their glasses to enter your establishment when they are required to see. It would be like not allowing someone with a service dog into your establishment. It will be interesting to watch companies try to prevent us from wearing these.[/citation]
You're wrong. Private businesses can refuse service whether you have prescription lenses in them or not. Private businesses can also refuse service to those with "seeing eye dogs" if they believe the dog poses a credible threat to the safety of customers or staff, or if they believe there is a credible threat to the dog (in which case they're required by law to refuse service for the safety of the dog).
[citation][nom]Camikazi[/nom]In the US you can't deny service to someone with a disability unless they are causing a problem, so no you can't refuse to serve someone with a seeing eye dog. It is against the law to deny service based on protected classes such as “race, color, religion, national origin, disability or sexual orientation.”[/citation]
You're a bit off there. Private businesses have the right to refuse service to anyone. Private businesses can even refuse service for religion, national origin or sexual orientation if they believe such may hinder safety of said person(s) or others. In the case of "seeing eye dogs", businesses can be required to refuse service to someone who's disabled if they believe there's a credible threat to the safety of the dog or if they believe the dog poses a credible safety hazard.
[citation][nom]spectrewind[/nom]So... If Google can somehow get their glasses product covered by the ADA, then no U.S. business could refuse service...?[/citation]
ADA will never cover Google Glass as they would have to be approved for medical use and there is no known medical condition that such device can be used to treat. Google Glass would have to be approved by the FDA before it could be used as a medical treatment, which means proving that a condition exists in which Google Glass is an effective treatment.
[citation][nom]killerclick[/nom]So you could weld an assault rifle to a wheelchair and go inside a bank or an airport? Yeah, that would be an extreme case, but I don't think you can go around reasonable restrictions as easy as that. This will probably be settled in court, but I think we should just accept that we can be recorded in public by anyone for any reason.[/citation]
No, welding an assault rifle to a wheel chair and entering an airport would get you arrested.... Second Amendment doesn't apply to private settings/businesses, airports or movie theatres... First Amendment doesn't apply to private settings/businesses, airports or movie theatres either...
In public, you can be recorded by anyone at any time....but even that can be settled in court so long as you can prove yourself the subject of the recording and that they didn't have your consent to post the video on youtube...
