Scary Manifesto that keeps getting pushed down on the sidebar by filthy capitalism!
They say that Louis XIV had the inscription Ultima Ratio Regum cast into all the cannon of the French Army. It means “The Ultimate Argument of Kings,” and that always struck me as one of the most honest and up-front things any ruler or would-be ruler ever said. “We can dress it up prettier than this, but when it comes down to the unvarnished truth this is what it’s about: You’ll do as I say or I’ll send my goons to kill you.”
I thought about that for a long time. If there’s an ultimate argument, it seems only logical that there must be an ultimate answer. For years I thought the ultimate answer must be the bullets in my rifle, but it never seemed quite right. I’ve got bullets – he’s got frigging Cannon Balls. I mean, if there were three hundred million rifles throwing bullets at him, then maybe. But we all know that’s not going to happen. So if there’s an ultimate answer to his ultimate argument, it sure as hell ain’t bullets.
It finally came to me – and that’s when I abandoned the city and most of my stuff, and gave all that was behind me a good stiff Randian Shrug.
The ultimate answer to kings is not a bullet, but a belly laugh.

Bravo! The disabled folks I’ve worked and lived with are not amused by the pretenders.
Hereabouts, city bus drivers were not allowed to even ask if your (fill in animal du jour) is a service animal. AND, no ID, registration, etc. exists for said creatures.
A local guy was notorious for repeatedly bringing his “service dog” into places where the mutt’s behavior would get him banned. He would then sue for discrimination. He was eventually arrested after a big noisy fight with management and the cops at a McD’s. Dog slept through the whole thing.
This is a clear case of discrimination on the basis of species. That’s gotta be somehow illegal! 😺
The morons who think they need support animals are generally too stupid to grasp that this announcement is targeting them specifically.
I’ve always felt that the whole “emotional support animal” thing is pure, grade A bull sh*t. I wish the best of luck to whoever the owners of this place are because they’re going to need it. In this litigious society that we live in, you have to know that they are going to get sued.
….not if the esa’s are required to stay in the same enclosure as the owner’s emotional support alligator…
Besides, wouldn’t one of those “management reserves the right to refuse entry and service …..” signs work, or are those verboten?
My state is about to pass a law cracking down on ‘service’ and ‘support’ animals. I’m rarely in favor of new/more laws, but that shit is out of control.
After I wrote my previous comment, I got curious, so I took a look at what the laws in Arizona say. I’m very happy to say that the owners of this store have every right to do this. Arizona does not recognize emotional support animals for public access rights, as it does service animals. This means emotional support animals can be denied access to public places.

I am my dogs emotional support human.
I’m OK with some emotional support critters.
I do not need an “emotional support animal” because my Emotional Support .45 serves all my needs on that score.
