Horses, Pigs, and Turkeys on Planes Thanks to Eric Holder
PJ Media ^ | Feburary 9,2018 | J. Christian Adams

In the past, when we studied the collapse of civilizations, we learned about Barbarian invasions and slave revolts. When our history is written, I suspect it will include peacocks on airplanes and emotional support hamsters.

So how did we get here?

How are farm animals such as pigs getting into first class to keep their owners soothed and sedate? That's what the Jack Daniels was supposed to do.

As we’ll see in a moment, we can blame the unhinged era of Eric Holder at the Justice Department.

In case you missed it, Spirit Airlines is getting grief for advising college student Belen Aldecosea to flush her emotional support hamster Pebbles down a toilet in Miami International Airport because it couldn’t go on the flight. PETA is demanding jail time for everyone involved.

But there have been turkeys clucking on planes and dogs relieving themselves in the aisles and barking the entire flight – which a real support dog would never do.

Let’s say out loud what everyone is already thinking – most of these support animals are completely fake. It’s a racket. A scam. A way to avoid paying the hefty pet fee.

American charges $125 for a pet, but not if it’s a support pig.

United also charges $125, but not if it is a “trained service animal.”

And so we find not only dogs and pigs on flights, but sheep, horses, peacocks, sheep and giant tortoises.

Some consider this madness enlightened evolution. That should put you on the scent of who is responsible.

Holder and Perez did what the bureaucrats at DOJ wanted to do for years in the Bush administration and expanded the reach of federal oversight – even without an act of Congress – to emotional support animals, including ferrets, horses, pigs, turkeys, anything.

Eric Holder would never have been appointed AG by a natural born citizen.

The founders were right to exclude the children of foreign nationals with the natural born citizen requirement.

The Kenyanesian Usurpation should be proof enough to anyone.

I have an emotional support hippopotamus. I got her for Christmas, and she's a certified support animal. I made a patch that says it.

Out of respect for my fellow passengers, before we fly together,

I am always careful to bathe and lightly perfume Louie,

my emotional-support Komodo dragon.

I know a couple who is moving to Europe. They just got their large dog certified as a support animal - I suppose they have a doctor friend or something. This is not a support animal. The couple travels about two weeks each month and boards the dog while they’re traveling.They did buy the dog a first-class ticket. The dog is a sweetie, but still I wouldn’t like to be in the first-class cabin with the dog for 10 hours.

While I think this whole “support animal” business is a hoax.

Some dogs are cleaner, safer and better behaved than some people.
