LOL...yes, I certainly DO think that people who are sick enough to throw up all over public places should stay at home!

In other words, why it wouldn't be an easy thing to regulate.

And I don't know why the rest of society should have to be around someone else's pet...lol. Service animals, on the other hand, are a completely different category--they serve a function other than just for the enjoyment of their owners.
