While I appreciate your support of transgendered people, I call double bullshit on your description of a service animal as a "fucking dog."
In the literal sense, service dogs have almost all gone through surgical procedures that render "fucking" quite impractical.
In the metaphorical sense, service dogs — like almost every decently treated dogs, reward their people with love and affection as well as vision, protection, and a thousand other services that make this crappy world we live in a lot more loving and bearable. The fact that the concept of a phony service dog even exists simply shows how much we depend on our furry friends.
So the next time you want to express contempt for a low-life creature, forget about calling it a "fucking dog," Now, a "fucking Neville" might do nicely.
the editing function finally appeared. Maribu dictu!
I feel sorry for my fellow JeffCo residents who have Senator Neville, the newest nattering nabob of negativity, as their state senator. But then, maybe they're getting what they voted for.
Neville's comment is unnecessary and insulting – and so is the premise of this entire bill. The bill implies that people are masquerading dogs as being certified service dogs – I doubt there are many cases. The broader implication and misunderstanding of this bill will affect owners of companion dogs – primarily senior citizens and vets – who may denied rental housing or charged exorbitant fees which are not affordable. What happened to the Republican Party that demands LESS government intrusion and claims to care about vets and seniors?
This bill passed only because legislators did not fully read and understand the consequences – and TO GAIN CAMPAIGN FUNDING FROM THE LOBBYIST WHO PUSHED IT. Legislators compromised their integrity, intelligence and constituents all for lobbyist Axiom Strategies to fuel their re-election campaigns. The legislators didn't give a damn about vets, seniors, impaired children and adults, and others who are now forced to go through an expensive process – validating a medical or psychological need, a vetenarian exam plus dog training certification. All of these expensive demands to appease the whims of short sighted, greedy legislators.
