[nagdu] Victim or Advocate?

[Doug Parisian]

Shannon, you scored, a double touchdown in fact with two two point converts; 
you got my point.  Thank dog for someone not prone to flag-waving hysteria.

Gentle readers, I played a major part in specific legislation which holds 
accountable and severely punishes transgressors.  A transgression is 
considered to be any unsolicited interference with a service animal, without 
the permission of the owner.  I did in fact forward the complete copy to the 
list some months ago before unsubscribing and there was little to know 
interest.

Doug: my dog can lick your dog--and you too!
