None of us has a problem with the hearing impaired. One of my best friends is hearing impaired. Because of how loudly she was screaming the words PIT BULL whether it was her intention or not, she was unfortunately causing a scene and security eventually came over to investigate. I was annoyed because she was rude and wanted to yell at us.

One of my best friends is almost deaf without her hearing aids. When she was little if her mom was yelling at her about something she used to look her mom right in the eyes, reach up and turn off her hearing aids.
In circumstances where a deaf person wants to use their hearing impaired-ness as an advantage, it is an advantage. If they refuse to read your lips then they can just keep on with their tyrade and expect it to be "excused" because they "can't" understand you.
I'm not saying that people who can hear don't do similarly manipulative things, but in this case, it seems that this woman was using it to her advantage.
