I'm glad people in recovery are posting their videos. Maybe Karen will see herself in one of them.

That's a slow-motion drunk slur if I've ever hear one.

I would love to see her court appearance where the judge explains what the law is. If she still goes to hire an attorney to sue the cops for this that would be entertaining as well.

"cellphone? cellphone!" like she's calling her dog or something.

woman needs help. it is so fitting that her name is actually Karen because we'd all be calling her that anyway.

Any woman of color that kicked a policeman like she did would have been tased and/or shot while handcuffed.

Did anyone see the candy commercial during the Super Bowl:

Friend (presumably not named Karen), handing her friend Karen, a bag of M&M's:
"Sorry I called you a Karen"

Karen: "But my name IS Karen"

Friend, handing over another bag of M&M's:
"Sorry your name is Karen"

I thought it might be the same person, but its a different name. Anna Peric.

She also made videos at other venues as well.

I'm so tired of these people, "What is the law?"

I don't care if there is or isn't a law requiring a mask. That store is private property. If they ask her to leave and she doesn't it is trespassing.

It's generally some clown who would just as soon spit on someone with a disability as talk to them, suddenly ranting about their rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Gives the act, and all of us who rely on it, a bad name.
