The arc of history bends toward emotional support peacocks
1. My sister has a registered emotional support animal. She did this purely because she could as a convenience thing. IE instead of shipping her pet in a crate she wanted to hold it in the cabin so she could avoid the hassle of checking it in. During the process of getting it registered her psychiatrist was 100% aware she did not need an emotional support animal and said that other patients did the same thing. Based on this I&#x27;m assuming emotional support animals are essentially a myth, true needs are extremely rare, and most are in similar situations to my sister.<p>2. I have horrendous allergies to animal dander, and just don&#x27;t like animals in general. Not life threatening but if I ever encountered an animal on a plane it would probably be one of the worst experiences of my life. I 100% sympathize with this guy. I&#x27;ve met way too many people who treat their &quot;fur babies&quot; better than the actual human beings around them.<p>Based on this I would support banning animals on airlines.
