By being totally dependent on a dog, the person is in fact rendered unfit to get around in Public.
The fact he is unfit does not trump the rights of others
I could not be in more disagreement with you, bert.
Allowing real service dogs is an accommodation made by a civil society, which we used to be.
That we do it for people who have lost their sight by some method other than warfare shows a side of us that I like and appreciate.
To make that accommodation for those who have lost their sight fighting in war in defense of this nation is an accommodation I feel we are obliged to do (and should be grateful to do) in order to avoid being rightfully damned.
