“Don’t Do Something That Makes You Miserable”

What exactly are those ableist arguments?

Possessing an insurance card doesn’t mean that a person has insurance. Assuming that she did currently have insurance, that doesn’t mean that she didn’t have a lapse in insurance the month before like the cop said.
