Reply to comment by cat_bunny in "Even a $7,000 Rent Doesn’t Guarantee Dogs Get to Walk Through the Lobby" In some New York City buildings, the four-legged pets are not welcome everywhere. Their owners must carry them or use a service elevator. by CactusBoyScout

We’re literally talking about having animals in public spaces in a building though. To some, indoor pets are disgusting and they purposely may seek out a building with strict animal policies regarding to public spaces. How is it fair to them if these policies are suddenly changed to suit a very vocal, very entitled animal owner?

>Children are JUST as disgusting and I could argue that they should be banned from certain buildings too

That's a strawman if I've ever seen one. I'm no fan of kids myself, but society has considered them a special case for just about every rules since times immemorial, in virtually every country. I'd love to have more childfree spaces, but comparing kids to pets is just silly.
