Have you ever had a nasty note left on your windshield, or have you ever been discriminated against because of a disability?

One B.C. woman felt both of those unenviable feelings earlier this week.

In a story out of the Vernon Morning Star, a woman found a note on her windshield that was filled with insults and prejudices regarding her medical condition.

The person who wrote the note called her ‘fat’ and ‘lazy,’ failing to have sympathy for her fibromyalgia. It’s a syndrome that often causes muscle and joint pain.

There was outrage online regarding the letter. Our readers had a few opinions on the matter as well.
