    A Black Conservattive Woman 
    Conservative author and commentator Candace Owens was denied medical care in the form of a coronavirus test by a Colorado laboratory because of her political beliefs, Fox News anchor Tucker Carlson reported Thursday.

    Owens was sent a letter by Aspen Laboratories co-founder Suzanna Lee informing her that her "booking" was being canceled and that she would be "denied service" because of both her aversion to governmental facemask mandates and her analysis of the effectiveness of vaccination shots.

    "We cannot support anyone who has pro-actively worked to make this pandemic worse by spreading misinformation, politicizing, and discouraging the wearing of masks and actively dissuading people from receiving life-saving vaccinations," Lee wrote in the letter obtained by "Tucker Carlson Tonight."

    So, do we need people like "Suzanna Lee " dictating who can get a COVID test?

    if I get this right it would appear Suzanna believes she has the right to pick and choose who can be tested at the place she is a paid employee --Aspen Laboratories.

    And the facts show she canceled Ms. Owens COVID test, due to her own political beliefs.  Again to quote Suzanna ---  "We cannot support anyone who has pro-actively worked to make this pandemic worse by spreading misinformation, politicizing, and discouraging the wearing of masks and actively dissuading people from receiving life-saving vaccinations," Lee wrote in the letter obtained by "Tucker Carlson Tonight."

    So, have I pointed out a very destructive new way of Discrimination In America?  I hope you will share your thought's in regard to how you feel about this problem, which is clear and clearly growing.

      For the first, I'm a waking serial killer. Not harmed anyone physically in my life.
      Don't know how many, I may have screwed up for being honest.

      If this is to be believed, and not just some publicity stunt, then I'd say it is dangerously close to vigilante enforcement of unspoken thought crime laws. After seeing people celebrate the deaths of vaxxers and non-vaxxers alike, I'm not sure I want these psychopaths having any level of power and privilege over others. Even in the case of a private business, expressing your reasons for disbarring someone publicly should be limited to common courtesy laws that don't exist.

      It's a conversation that could go on for ages, and the solution would most likely be unfavorable for everyone involved.

        Some people give me a sad odd covid story. Which mean very little to me when there are 99%plus other illnesses or ways to die that are a far greater concern.

        All the constitution and human rights laws have been broken greater than other time in history. My art and entertainment professional world is totally been destroyed. You can't master life unless you love what you do.
        Love my work for most waking hours of my life, About 80% don't like their work probably the saddest story of all time , of wasting one's life away.

        How can I feel so sorry for covid victims when all combined deaths are 78%obese or 75% over age 80+. About 0.005 combined covid death in the world. Add it all to the scape pile of covid world order that has cause additional hundreds of other kinds of causes of death in 10s of millions. If the weak and old cause by gain covid 19 pounds with free money and time. Can't feel sorry for that kind of stupidity, as it is not worth far less than 1% apathy
        given it to covid death. Or I would be crying forever for in my lifetime of more flu deaths than covid relationship in Canada . Don't personally know any covid I hear 100 covid deaths compared to 10,000 heart disease death in my maritime area. Rather have compassion for the 99% of other health condition of mind and body.


        This is a third world war by the snythic wealthy world vs the rest of the people who don't belong to their exclusive club. Everything coded for the snythic anything natural can empower the people. That is why one third of small business have been destroyed and my arts and entertainment business has been wiped out. Three largest scammers in order banks, Government and pharmaceutical they are playing for complete dictatorship and ownership, yet like always will fail in the long run as empires and kings do.
        The true distiny of the Beautiful living is the kingdom within ourselves.
        Only in America is someone who gets seriously ill and needs lots of expensive care and hospital stays forced to pawn their dignity and rely on fundraising efforts from friends and neighbors to pay their bills, often even in cases where the patient had good health insurance. They have to beg from their neighbors when it should be covered by the government, but the private drug companies and the private healthcare system are solely about sucking every dollar they can out of people before they die, rather than about making them well or serving the public. The only country in the developed world where medical bankruptcies are common.
        Hey, next the covaids are coming for your social security Since 95% covid deaths are age 50 and over. Pension cost them more than the national debt. Covid it's a gold mine for billionaire even more than vaccines which is part of the deal anyway, good health is not practice.

        Politician are so extremely two faced, broken promises and false statements. Now Trump took the vaccines even after he caught covid. Now he encouraged others to take the vaccines.
        Why many people waste their time over politicians is beyond me.

      This is abhorrent.   Suzanne Lee should be fired.  There is a double standard here.  If a conservative practices what is believed to be discrimination by the left,  h/she is immediately outed, resulting in the latter losing his/her job or worse.  But when a leftist does the same,exact thing, nothing is done.  There is a DOUBLE STANDARD here.   Fair should be fair.

      While I don't care for the puerile, little know it all, the Aspen lab was out of line. Ms. Owens' viewpoints should not have any bearing on her receiving medical treatments available to anyone else.

      Based on the article, I have a once in a blue moon moment where I can agree with Candice's complaint.

        I have always appreciated Candice's unique personality and her unafraid attitude when it comes to expressing her views. She stands out from the crowd. I guess I have always been drawn to those that are not afraid to step away from the crowd.  And Candice certainly is unafraid of speaking her truth.

    You can’t reason with a religious fanatic and the left has become little different from a religious cult. More and more are walking up to this reality.

      I  see more and more of this kind of discrimination every day. A politically driven type of banning. It is clearly a totalitarian practice. This kind of discrimination seeks to make the perpetrator think they have the right to be dictatorial and feel they have the right to require anyone that does not share their ideologies to be completely subservient to their views.

      And yes, I think finally many are waking up to this reality, and are about done with it.

        +1000000000000, this action borders not only on totalitarianism, but on pure immaturity.   Each person has a right to his/her sociopolitical beliefs.   Live & let live as long it doesn't harm others or no children are involved.

      Nationalism is even worst. The religious can just annoy me. The nationalism gets daily interference in our lives and dangerous.

      The left is beyond a religious cult.  The left are the SS.  The left want to enforce their premise onto society.  The left believe that they are right & that everyone who disagrees w/them are not only wrong but misinformed, uneducated, etc.

        Yes the left dose have an extremely popular naritive and steamrolled their agenda over everything and one.

        Free speech and open debates have been very selected or banned often.

    Agree, There seems to be enough posted documentation on the matter, and thus far no reputable from the lab.  I am also in agreement I don't want other citizens in their given job making political statements on any services rendered. 
    Next, we could have the cashier at the grocery store refusing to ring up one's order.

      CDC study finds over 80% of US adults have some immunity to COVID, notes prior infection offers similar protection as vaccine "A recent survey of blood donations has found that more than 80% of Americans over the age of 16 have some level of immunity to COVID-19 — a figure that could have massive implications on the country's public health policy moving forward." [theblaze.com] The pharmaceutical are banking on dependents on it for life. Like common colds and flu..
      Not only pushing a third jab, and then another and another every six to eight months, they are trying to bring out a medication to help with the side effects and then if that is not working for you they are working on an oral anti-viral treatment. They are milking the cash cow on every teat.

      By pass numbers alone, by corrupted official anyways.Vaccines can only increase covid cases and deaths in the future.

      A majority of the people already have innate immunity, which is why less than 1% of the population had any severe reaction to the virus. There is no way to know what the long term effects of the 'vaccines' will be. People may suffer from Antibody Dependent Enhancement and auto-immune diseases for years to come

    Just think about it.  If Candace Owens had been a criminal the left may have burned down a few cities in her name.  Since she a conservative black woman, she is hated by the left. She once spoke at a college campus, and you should hear the names she was called by people of all races, because she's conservative. 

    As a black conservative once told me, being black and thinking for yourself makes all races on the left hate you.  The love given to black people by the left doesn't apply to black conservatives.  The hate from the left towards black conservatives is real.
