Lawless world of "Service Dogs"

One of the most destructive forces in a complicated society is the existence of people who wrongfully impose on others simply to make their lives easier or to gain some sort of unearned advantage.

Again it shouldn’t be any of our business why they have a handicap decal or service animal. Planes already made it harder for service animals to ride with the passenger. Personally I’d rather a dog be next to me in a restaurant or plane than some crying infant. Never understood why parents can’t drive instead of fly with babies.

It is our business because of the imposition that it imposes on others. Again, when that imposition is fueled by actual need our society has been especially accommodating. And, again, wrongfully imposing is an antisocial and ultimately destructive act.

No, its none of your business. If your grandpa needed to fly with a dog to keep him calm would you object to Donger asking him why he needs to fly with a dog?

Personally I believe when someone is breaking a law, especially one created to help the disadvantaged in our society, it's everyone's business.
