Disabled veteran confronts Zoom access violation in heated meeting
In a recent government Zoom meeting, a heated exchange unfolded regarding access for disabled veterans. A participant, visibly frustrated, accused Kennedy O'Brien of revoking Zoom access for disabled veterans, asserting that such actions infringe upon their First Amendment rights. The individual recounted an incident during the meeting where they attempted to raise their hand to speak, only to have their hand lowered repeatedly by another participant, which they described as a deliberate obstruction.

The speaker emphasized the importance of ensuring that disabled veterans have equal access to participate in discussions that affect their rights and well-being. They criticized the apparent hypocrisy of using disabled veterans for political purposes while simultaneously limiting their access to platforms like Zoom. The participant also pointed out that O'Brien has a disabled son, questioning the disconnect between advocating for disability rights and restricting access for others.

The passionate remarks underscored a broader conversation about the rights of disabled individuals, framing them as fundamental human rights. The speaker concluded with a call to recognize and uphold these rights, urging those in power to reflect on their responsibilities towards disabled communities.
