Well on that part you really can't prove it, because you check out, and they
go in there and say this or that.  What are you going to do at that point?
They are just going to charge you the money.  It's easyer for them to just
do that.    


I'm glad to be your humble and obedient servant,

Choose ye this day whom you will serve.  If Yahweh be Elohim, then serve
him, with all of your hart.  However, if bail be your master.  Then serve
him.  As for me, and my house.  We choose, to serve Yahweh! 
 
The late Bishop Joe Patterson told a story long ago, when i was a small
child.  About Elijah, and the 450 false prophets of bail.  He said that
Elijah, stood, and told the false prophets to go on ahead, because they had
a much larger program.  He said that they had 450 participants, and he only
had one.  Elijah, also reminded them, that they had to drag their god up the
mountain side on an ox cart.  the man of yahweh, also said, that his Elohim
would be there when he arrived.  He said mockingly,you go on ahead.  Heck, I
will even let you call your god first.  I'M going to take a nap, and when
you guys finish your foolishness, wake me up. Go ahead now, take your best
shot.

Dear Joe,

Actually, damage has to be proven first before any extra charges can be
incurred.

To locate all the state laws regarding service animals go to:
