People on the Right are always crying that everything is a false flag, that anyone doing anything bad while dressed as a Trump supporter is actually Antifa, that everyone who disagrees with them is a crisis actor, that politicians are sending secret messages to each other through pictures of their dogs on Twitter (I wish that was a joke, it's not a joke) — and really, it is hard not to wonder who on earth would have the time or energy to bother with that nonsense.

Well, apparently someone would, and did, and that person is Ivan Harrison Hunter of Boerne, Texas, pictured above. Except rather than being a nefarious, Soros-check-collecting, anti-fascist, Harrison is a Boogaloo Boi plead guilty this week to shooting up a Minneapolis police station while trying to pass himself off as a BLM protester angry about George Floyd's death.

Hunter has been charged with one count of rioting, the sentencing guidelines for which suggest he will serve between 37 and 46 months in federal prison.

Via Minneapolis Public Radio:

Hunter admitted that he fired 13 rounds from an AK-47-style rifle into the 3rd precinct police station on May 28, 2020, as other rioters looted and set fire to the building after police evacuated. No one was struck by the gunfire.

After shooting at the building, Hunter was recorded on video high-fiving another person and yelling "Justice for Floyd!" Investigators matched the skull mask Hunter was wearing in the video to a photo on his Facebook page.

Prosecutors say Hunter came to Minneapolis in the days following Floyd's murder after corresponding on Facebook with Michael Solomon of New Brighton, Minn., and Benjamin Teeter of Hampstead, N.C. The men had been part of the "Boogaloo Bois," a group that exploits tensions to further violence.

You may recall Solomon and Teeter from the time they tried to join forces with and sell weapons to an FBI agent posing as a member of Hamas. He was also reportedly in touch with Air Force Staff Sgt./Boogaloo Boi/Murderer Steven Carrillo, as we noted when he was first arrested in October of last year.

Then, just a few hours after the precinct was set on fire, Hunter started texting with California Boogaloo Boi Steven Carrillo, who had just killed a Federal Protective Services Officer in Oakland, and who would shoot and kill a sheriff's deputy in Santa Cruz only five days later. He asked Carrillo for money and recommended he consider going after police buildings.

"I did better," Carrillo replied.

Another Boogaloo Boi, Aaron Caleb Swenson, was recently sentenced to 50 years in prison for the attempted murder of a police officer — so Hunter got off pretty light, considering.

The Boogaloo Bois/Boys are an extremist group known for their fondness for Hawaiian print (because "Big Luau" is one of their special secred code words) and their desire to push society towards a second Civil War. Some of them want a full on race war, others just want to overthrow the government because they think it is doing tyranny to them. They have been kicked off of most parts of the internet and, thankfully, have not been heard from much since the January 6 insurrection.

The Booglaoo Bois are not the only far-right group in the news right now. The El Mirage Police Department announced this week that Thomas Christopher Retzlaff, was murdered earlier this month. Retzlaff had allegedly been targeted for "a surveillance and assassination plot" by Jason Van Dyke. a former Proud Boy who previously represented the group as an attorney.

Via Phoenix New Times:

On September 1, 2021, El Mirage Police Department officers discovered 55-year-old Thomas Christopher Retzlaff dead at his home with unspecified "fatal injuries" after responding to a welfare check requested by his wife, according to agency spokesperson Timothy Mason. The Maricopa County Office of the Medical Examiner later ruled the death a homicide.

In recent years, Retzlaff had been entangled in a vicious and convoluted legal battle with Jason Van Dyke, a Texas-based attorney who is a former Proud Boys member and once served as the group's lawyer.

Van Dyke filed a $100 million libel lawsuit in federal court in 2018 accusing Retzlaff of falsely calling him a Nazi and a pedophile in blog posts. Retzlaff had also filed bar complaints against Van Dyke in an attempt to derail his potential job as a prosecutor in the Victoria County District Attorney's Office, according to a report by The Daily Beast.

After leaving the Proud Boys, Van Dyke allegedly tried and failed to join the Neo-Nazi extremist group The Base last year, although he denies he is the person who sounds just like him and shares many of his personal details in a recording obtained by VICE.

Van Dyke says he has not been associated with the group for more than two years and had nothing to do with Retzlaff's death, although he did celebrate his death with whiskey and steak, according to The Daily Beast.

How Do I Make My Dog a Service Dog

“ The only creatures that are evolved enough to convey pure love are dogs and infants. Johnny Depp

These are some of the most frequently asked questions that I want to answer today, in as straight forward and factual way, as I can. There is so much misinformation on the internet, that people may be missing out on an opportunity to have an animal in their life to help them in so many ways, physically, emotionally or psychologically. As a licensed therapist for 30 years, that does Psychological evaluations with clients through Next Generation Psychology at www.esapros.com we certify people to have an Emotional Support Animal (ESA) or a Psychiatric Service Dog (PSD). The most frequent thing I hear from clients after getting an ESA or a PSD is that having my animal with them is a “life changer”. So, don’t let misinformation scare you off from seeing if you could qualify for a type of Service dog.

How do you get a service dog?

1. Service dogs come in many types for different disabilities and they have different laws that govern them. If you have a medical condition, like seizures, diabetes, wheelchair bound or what we are most used to understanding as a traditional, service dog is for blindness. But there could be many types of medical conditions, if the dog, or a miniature horse, qualifies according to the Americans with Disability act (ADA). What the ADA states as qualifying for a Service dog is: The ADA defines a service animal as a dog that is "individually trained" to "perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability.” The tasks a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person’s disability. Service dogs have extensive training to behave calmly in public and perform specific tasks related to their owners’ physical or psychiatric disabilities. Some states have laws that provide broader protection than the ADA. For example, while the ADA only applies to qualified individuals with a disability, Rhode Island’s law extends those protections to cover trainers of personal assistance animals as well. States specifically excluding PSDs from state definition of service dog This does not mean that the ADA does not apply in those states. It means that psychiatric service dog owners simply do not have additional rights under state laws in these locales. As long as federal law applies, the ADA trumps or “preempts” the more restrictive state law. Here are some resources to find a places to assist you on how make my dog a service dog for your specific disability; These have not been vetted. Please do your own research to find the place right for you. www.ecad1.org/‎ 860-489-6550 www.sdwr.org/‎ 540-543-2307www.medicalservicedogs.org/‎ www.littleangelsservicedogs.org

How to make my dog an emotional support dog

To qualify for an Emotional Support Dog the dog, needs to help the person with a daily functioning, like sleep, socializing or to concentrate better at home or work, etc. And they must have a corresponding psychological diagnosis that is affecting that daily functioning. A Psychological doctor or a licensed mental health profession must evaluate you to determine the diagnosis according the DSM-5 and that the animal helps you with a daily functioning. Once the person is qualified, they will receive documentation from the Mental health professional on letter head stating in the exact language required by the 2 federal laws governing ESAs. The 2 federal laws are: The Fair Housing Act. (FHA) and the Air Carriers Access Act. (ACAA). The Federal Housing law was instituted in 1973- It states an assistance animal is not a pet. It is an animal that works, provides assistance, or performs tasks for the benefit of a person with a disability, or provides emotional support that alleviates one or more identified symptoms or effects of a person's disability. Assistance animals perform many disability-related functions, including but not limited to, pulling a wheelchair, fetching items, alerting persons to impending seizures, or providing emotional support to persons with disabilities who have a disability-related need for such support. For purposes of reasonable accommodation requests, neither the FHAct nor Section 504 requires an assistance animal to be individually trained or certified. While dogs are the most common type of assistance animal, other animals can also be assistance animals. Housing providers may ask- (I) Does the person seeking to use and live with the animal have a disability — i.e., a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities? (2) Does the person making the request have a disability-related need for an assistance animal? In other words, does the animal provide assistance for the benefit of a person with a disability, or provide emotional support that alleviates one or more of the identified symptoms or effects of a person's existing disability? Where the answers to questions (1) and (2) are "yes," the FHAct and Section 504 require the housing provider to modify or provide an exception to a "no pets" rule or policy to permit a person with a disability to live with and use an assistance animal(s) in all areas of the premises where persons are normally allowed to go, unless doing so would impose an undue financial and administrative burden or would fundamentally alter the nature of the housing provider's services. Breed, size, and weight limitations may not be applied to an assistance animal_ A determination that an assistance animal poses a direct threat of harm must be based on an individualized assessment that relies on objective evidence about the specific animal's actual conduct — not on mere speculation or fear about the types of harm or damage an animal may cause and not on evidence about harm or damage that other animals have caused. Conditions and restrictions that housing providers apply to pets may not be applied to assistance animals. A housing provider may not deny a reasonable accommodation request because he or she is uncertain whether or not the person seeking the accommodation has a disability or a disability-related need for an assistance animal. Housing providers may ask individuals who have disabilities that are not readily apparent or known to the provider to submit reliable documentation of a disability and their disability-related need for an assistance animal. However, a housing provider may not ask a tenant or applicant to provide documentation showing the disability or disability-related need for an assistance animal if the disability or disability-related need is readily apparent or already known to the provider. A housing provider also may not ask an applicant or tenant to provide access to medical records or medical providers or provide detailed or extensive information or documentation of a person's physical or mental impairments. A request for a reasonable accommodation may not be unreasonably denied or conditioned on payment of a fee or deposit or other terms and conditions applied to applicants or residents with pets, and a response may not be unreasonably delayed. Persons with disabilities who believe a request for a reasonable accommodation has been improperly denied may file a complaint. The Air Carrier Act is the other law governing ESAs and was instituted in 1986- it is governed by the Department of Transportation (DOT). The Air Carriers Access Act: “In the Federal Register Rules and Regulations and Guidance Concerning Service Animals in Air Transportation. In 1990, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) promulgated the official regulations implementing the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA). Those rules are entitled Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Air Travel (14 CFR part 382). Require documentation for emotional support animals: With respect to an animal used for emotional support (which need not have specific training for that function), airline personnel may ��require current documentation (i.e., not more than one year old) on letterhead from a mental health professional stating (1) that the passenger has a mental health-related disability; (2) that having the animal accompany the passenger is necessary to the passenger’s mental health or treatment or to assist the passenger (with his or her disability); and (3) that the individual providing the assessment of the passenger is a licensed mental health professional and the passenger is under his or her professional care. Airline personnel may require this documentation as a condition of permitting the animal to accompany the passenger in the cabin. The airlines can refuse an assistance or ESA animal if it is engaged in disruptive behavior; shows that it has not been successfully trained to function as a service animal in public settings. And they can refuse any exotic animals, like pigs, turkeys, snakes or pocket animals.

Flying with Assistance Animals Outside the Continental U.S.

Although foreign airlines must meet the ACAA requirements, many other countries have health requirements for bringing in animals. Except for trained service dogs, Hawaii has a quarantine for animals. However, even service dogs need a health certificates and can only fly into Honolulu. To find the health requirements for your destination, use this pet-travel search tool from the U.S. Department of Agriculture. When you’re traveling internationally with a pet, it’s also a good idea to check with the consulate or embassy of the country where you’re headed. 3.

How to make your dog a service dog for anxiety

Since we have more and more Veterans returning from war, the incidence of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) that’s main symptoms are anxiety and depression, more Veteran are needing a service dog for anxiety or PTSD symptoms. This would be considered a Psychiatric Service Dog (PSD). The ADA covers services dogs that can go wherever the veteran goes or anyone with anxiety that qualifies. The Americans with Disability act (ADA) states. What the ADA states as qualifying for a Service dog is: The ADA defines a service animal as a dog that is "individually trained" to "perform tasks for the benefit of an individual with a disability.” The tasks a dog has been trained to provide must be directly related to the person’s disability. A PSD can be trained by a professional, or by you or the animal could intuitively have trained themselves to recognize anxiety in a panic attack or a PTSD trigger and then responds to you by going over to you, lick you, paw at you, or in some way help to calm you, to lessen the anxiety symptoms or help to come back to reality, etc. it will perform that specific task related to their owners’ psychiatric disabilities consistently.

How to make your dog an emotional support animal

Any animal, dog cat, rabbit, or bird, etc. could be an emotional support animal as long as it helps the person with a daily functioning, like to sleep better, concentrate better, or socialize easier and you have been given a psychological diagnosed by a licensed mental health professional and that this animal will helps with that daily functioning and the Therapist recommends you to have an ESA in a letter to use from airlines and housing. However, airlines are not required to allow any exotic animal on the plane. 5.

How can I make my dog a Service dog

Depending on the person specific needs, you can train a dog to fetch, pull a wheel chair or notice when your blood sugar is low, or notice that you are going to have a seizure. Or you can have them professional trained. Many of the places that train a service dog to assist a blind person, must have specialty training to make sure that the dog can keep the person safe in public or crossing streets. Hence, the cost of thousands of dollars to find and train a specialty animal. Many prisons have programs to find the type of animal that has the right temperament, and behaviors to assist a person with a physical disability. Here are some unvetted resources to start your search. www.ecad1.org/‎ 860-489-6550 www.sdwr.org/‎ 540-543-2307 www.medicalservicedogs.org/‎ www.littleangelsservicedogs.org

McCalla, Christine Ann’s Attempt At Leveraging Equities In The Doctoral College’s Environment Columbia Southern University: Thwarting Murder, by McCalla, Christine Ann

To: Interpol and variations thereof

From: McCalla, Christine Ann and all variations thereof

Re: Brandmeir’s inability to understand and appreciate how crimes of an unnecessary are committed

Date: February 19, 2018

In regards to my report filed earlier this morning, it appears to Brandmeir that his encouragement and facilitation of criminal activities does not go unnoticed or unperceived by the matured student and one at the doctoral level.

It appears Brandmeir’s email has been duplicated in which duplicate copies are being forwarded to numerous persons. He refers to a DL-Blackholes and I am unware of that person being that I merely responded all to his email. I do not know this person but it is an indication that unauthorized persons have access to student’s correspondence and files violating privacy regulation, antitrust and monopolization statutes, and the oath of the government official. Since Brandmeir is unaware of the calibre of his conduct, I believe it is best that he sees my way of thinking via statutes and those violated.

Also attached is his response including that of BL-Blackholes.

My comments from my earlier correspondence are as follows with the relevant statute violations as I have now officially submitted notice to CSU’s registrar regarding withdrawal.

Correct me if I am wrong as I seem unable to identify the deficiencies I have in Doctoral Orientation. My discussion presented an in-depth discussion on the dissertation process in my post to the professor's posting/discussion including the, (1) analysis of ProQuest’s Database in which a doctoral dissertation written by Nowlin’s (2018) Incorporating stakeholder input into financial decision making in california school districts was presented; (2) given with the provision of Nowlin reference, the doctoral dissertation requested was provided. My representation was present and was not validated means I am free to initiate plagiarism and infringements as I see fit. This is a failure of Department of Education to provide me with the quality of education required at the Doctoral level - an infringement;

STATUTE VIOLATED -

(3) Nowlin's dissertation was retrieved from ProQuest's dissertation database and not the traditional database. In that my obligation and burden towards Columbia Southern University have been met as required and instructed; (4) It is inappropriate for my doctoral professor at my university to direct me to infringe upon other elements as vital Department of Education's resources and suggest identity theft as it is the only way to access additional dissertation databases not provided my university library. I am a legitimate student at Columbia Southern. I expect to be provided with any and all resources necessary from them and not some other illegitimate resources resulting in civil and criminal penalties. In other words, Columbia Southern University does not tell me to seek references from universities other than its own; (5) Your reference of deterrence in participation in a cooperative learning activity is quite discouraging. The act of conference participation is a peer learning activity. To this you specified, "No need to analyze or comment on others or event the dissertation, just yes or no but could be useful." Again, another Department of Education failure/deficiency. (6) Your feedback of, "Accusations are not appropriate in discussion boards." It is clear to see how this comment came in with. (a) my Al Khatib to Khatib fraudulent infringement resulting in academic violation; grader's response . Grader response Delete: “Al Khatib, A. S. (2014). Time management and its relation to students' stress, gender and academic a…” Grader response Add: “Khatib, A. S. (2014). Time management and its relation to students' stress, gender and academic achi…” (2) the comments regarding my grammar, citation formatting, and presentation of personality including those of a nonsensical manner, the lack of representation and presentation of faculty at a doctoral level including, lack of introduction being it is way too long and needs to be concise; Which means what? Look up sesquipedalian. It is alleged sesuipedalian, applied to the phrase in my paper discernment of the DBA program, is a term reserved for Department of Education and not for students which you fail to appreciate. Furthermore, according to dictionary.com, the definition of sesuipedalian is, (1) given to using long words, 2. (of a word) containing many syllables. noun 3. a sesquipedalian word. How discernment becomes using long words and containing many syllables as defined by dictionary.com is a reflection of Department of Education. Hopefully with time, they will see the err. The representation in my paper, "This reflection paper demands discernment of the DBA program including the objectives of the program, the expectation by the school and society, characteristics / attributes of success in the program, areas of development and growth, and the consequences of time management application within the DBA students personal life. The desire to be conferred upon as a DBA must reflect the diligence, commitment, and discipline required to achieve said accolade." is met with the comment This sentence is useless, the paper does not demand (anthropomorphism perhaps). Not sure where you found this list but just make no sense. Dictionary.com defines anthromorphism as an anthropomorphic conception or representation, as of a deity. Anthropomorphic, dictionary.com, means ascribing human form or attributes to a being or thing not human, especially to a deity. 2. resembling or made to resemble a human form... As for my week 1 rewrite, I was met with the comment of This paper is supposed to be a personal reflection and it is not – not sure why you insist on all the extra materials instead of your own thinking. If you spent the time writing the paper correctly, and a little less on compiling references that are not needed, you could resolve some of the writing issues. The references are nice for a doctoral level effort, but in this case, overdone. Overdone and yet my grade for week 1 was 70.5%. American Psychological Association (2010) appreciates the benefits on reliances on prior studies to advance theories. American Psychological Association (2010) argues successfully, 1.03 Theoretical Articles In theoretical articles, authors draw on existing research literature to advance theory. Literature reviews and theoretical articles are often similar in structure, but theoretical articles present empirical information only when it advances a theoretical issue. Authors of theoretical articles trace the development of theory to expand and refine theoretical constructs or present a new theory or analyze existing theory, pointing out flaws or demonstrating the advantage of one theory over another. For a doctoral feedback to be contesting the focus on the reliance on prior studies including appropriate citation management in favor of unsupported originality creates a substantial problem for me. There were also comments such as Transfer or incorporate – pedagogical concepts on prior learning do not seem to apply here, Do you mean the ability to strategize, You don’t understand copyrighting so not sure why you are putting this in here, Requires mentoring?, The department of education has nothing to do with this – what are you writing about here., Students don’t exerts so what are you saying?, Do not have consequences to attributes – so what are you saying... A DBA degree is considered a practitioner's degree with encouragements to reliance on prior knowledge and skills, but since this doctoral orientation and I overdo with references none will be provided here.

Firm behind anti-Trump dossier labeled..

Fox News Firm behind anti-Trump dossier labeled critic a 'pedophile,' 'extortionist' and 'drug trafficker' Trump dossier firm's 'smear' tactics unveiled: Fusion GPS labeled critic a 'pedophile,' 'extortionist' and 'drug trafficker' The self-described “strategic intelligence” firm Fusion GPS that was behind the controversial anti-Trump dossier has a track record of intimidation and smear tactics, according to congressional testimony and the firsthand account of a London-based Venezuelan journalist who said he was labeled a “pedophile,” “extortionist” and “drug trafficker” after criticizing one of Fusion’s clients. “I believe that Fusion GPS’s business is to do basically whatever the paymasters tell them to do,” Alek Boyd, the Venezuelan journalist, told Fox News in his first American TV interview. “They are particularly good at spreading misinformation, disinformation and smears.” Boyd says he was targeted after his 2012 reporting on Derwick Associates, a power company with close ties to the Venezuelan government. The company allegedly skimmed nearly a billion dollars from rigged contracts with the late Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez. “It is my understanding that were hired basically to smear Derwick opponents and to dispel any possible doubts that regular media may have had at the time,” he said. British police records show Boyd reported a break-in, with two laptops stolen from his London apartment in November 2014. Asked by Fox News what was on the computers, Boyd said, “A lot of information and a lot of evidence about corruption and scandals in Venezuela that I’ve been compiling throughout the years.” After the break-in, Boyd said his sources were attacked. “People that were believed to be collaborating and sending me information from Venezuela were assaulted in Venezuela by the intelligence police of Mr. Chavez,” he said. Asked if Fusion GPS was tasked with coming after him, Boyd said, “I believe that they were involved in the defamation campaign — smearing campaign — shortly after my apartment was broken into.” Boyd says he was labeled a pedophile, drug addict and thief on the web. “They published this information through a number of social media and websites anonymously. They created fake Twitter accounts with my name, impersonating myself. ... They started publishing photos of me walking around London with my daughters. They produced a huge amount of information — fake information — about me, accusing me from being a pedophile to being an extortionist to a drug trafficker to a car thief.” Boyd says he believes three suspects, seen in security camera video released by British police, left pictures of his children inside his coat pocket as a warning. “The message, I believe at the time — we know where you are and we know where your children are, so take that as a threatening message.” And there was more. “After about a week,” Boyd explained, “two sets of envelopes were sent to me from Tbilisi, Georgia, containing the same exact same pictures — printout of pictures — that were left in my jacket, but this time the printouts had handwritten messages saying, ‘You touch the wrong girl you pedophile, you think we can’t touch yours?’” Fusion GPS is led by Glenn Simpson and Peter Fritsch, who left the Wall Street Journal about a decade ago. Boyd provided Fox News with a travel document that Boyd said indicates Fritsch traveled to Venezuela, as part of what he described as an effort to shut down any investigative reporting into Derwick's actions. Asked if Fusion GPS plays on its credentials as former journalists, Boyd said yes. FUSION BOSS REFUSED TO ANSWER BASIC QUESTIONS ON ANTI-TRUMP DOSSIER, SOURCE SAYS “I believe that they are basically cashing in on the years of experience they have accumulated collectively in different newspapers, in different media around the world,” he said. Boyd’s allegations mirror sworn congressional testimony from Bill Browder, an American businessman who told senators this summer that Fusion GPS used smear tactics to discredit him and his late attorney Sergei Magnitsky who, he says, was tortured and murdered eight years ago in a Russian jail. The so-called Magnitsky Act issued tough economic sanctions against Russia which are still in place today. In the Magnitsky case, Browder filed a complaint with the Justice Department in July 2016 because he says Fusion worked on behalf of a foreign government and its interests. The Justice Department would not comment on the complaint status. In a congressional declaration, human rights activist Thor Halvorssen also said Fusion GPS had “smear experts” and used “scorched earth methods.” To date, Simpson has refused to reveal his sources and who paid for the Trump dossier, with Fusion attorney Joshua Levy threatening in an Oct. 16 letter that Simpson and others will take the Fifth if they are required to appear before the House Intelligence Committee. Defending the company’s work on the Trump dossier, Levy wrote: “Of acute importance, these subpoenas, if indeed directed to our clients, violate the First Amendment rights of our clients and their clients, and would chill any American running for office — regardless of party affiliation, political viewpoint or candidate preference — from conducting confidential opposition research in an election. No individual should be expected to respond to such an abuse of power.” Boyd was dismissive of Fusion’s First Amendment arguments. “I do not believe that certain privileges that apply to journalists and lawyers should apply to Mr. Simpson because he is neither — he’s a spin doctor.” Simpson once railed against the kinds of aggressive opposition research tactics that are allegedly the lifeblood of his current company. Ironically, in a 1996 book that Simpson co-authored with Larry Sabato entitled, “Dirty Little Secrets: The Persistence of Corruption in American Politics,” the authors wrote, “At its worst, opposition research can be a gateway to acts that are not just offensive but duplicitous and sometimes illegal.” Levy did not respond to multiple requests for comment from Fox News over a two-day period about its work in Venezuela and Boyd’s allegations. The Metropolitan Police in London confirmed an investigation into Boyd’s apartment break-in, but the case was closed when the leads went cold. After Fox News emailed Alejandro Betancourt, CEO at Derwick Associates of Venezuela, Florida-based attorney Joseph DeMaria responded but did not address Fox News’ questions about the company’s relationship with Fusion GPS and the Boyd allegations: “I have represented Derwick and Messrs. Betancourt and Trebbau for the past five years in Florida litigation. Mr. Halvorssen filed a defamation and tortious interference lawsuit against Derwick and Messrs. Trebbau and Betancourt, which I defended successfully. The case was dismissed by the trial court and just last week, the Florida Court of Appeal affirmed the dismissal. Thus, after defeating Mr. Halvorssen’s claims, you can understand why Derwick and its principals have no desire to have any further involvement with Mr. Halvorssen. They did their speaking against Mr. Halvorssen in Court and have no further comment to make regarding Mr. Halvorssen or his allegations.” Catherine Herridge is an award-winning Chief Intelligence correspondent for FOX News Channel (FNC) based in Washington, D.C. She covers intelligence, the Justice Department and the Department of Homeland Security. Herridge joined FNC in 1996 as a London-based correspondent. Pamela K.

How Do I Make My Dog a Service Dog

How do you get a service dog?

How to make my dog an emotional support dog

To qualify for an Emotional Support Dog the dog, needs to help the person with a daily functioning, like sleep, socializing or to concentrate better at home or work, etc. And they must have a corresponding psychological diagnosis that is affecting that daily functioning. A Psychological doctor or a licensed mental health profession must evaluate you to determine the diagnosis according the DSM-5 and that the animal helps you with a daily functioning. Once the person is qualified, they will receive documentation from the Mental health professional on letter head stating in the exact language required by the 2 federal laws governing ESAs. The 2 federal laws are: The Fair Housing Act. (FHA) and the Air Carriers Access Act. (ACAA). The Federal Housing law was instituted in 1973- It states an assistance animal is not a pet. It is an animal that works, provides assistance, or performs tasks for the benefit of a person with a disability, or provides emotional support that alleviates one or more identified symptoms or effects of a person's disability. Assistance animals perform many disability-related functions, including but not limited to, pulling a wheelchair, fetching items, alerting persons to impending seizures, or providing emotional support to persons with disabilities who have a disability-related need for such support. For purposes of reasonable accommodation requests, neither the FHAct nor Section 504 requires an assistance animal to be individually trained or certified. While dogs are the most common type of assistance animal, other animals can also be assistance animals. Housing providers may ask- (I) Does the person seeking to use and live with the animal have a disability — i.e., a physical or mental impairment that substantially limits one or more major life activities? (2) Does the person making the request have a disability-related need for an assistance animal? In other words, does the animal provide assistance for the benefit of a person with a disability, or provide emotional support that alleviates one or more of the identified symptoms or effects of a person's existing disability? Where the answers to questions (1) and (2) are "yes," the FHAct and Section 504 require the housing provider to modify or provide an exception to a "no pets" rule or policy to permit a person with a disability to live with and use an assistance animal(s) in all areas of the premises where persons are normally allowed to go, unless doing so would impose an undue financial and administrative burden or would fundamentally alter the nature of the housing provider's services. Breed, size, and weight limitations may not be applied to an assistance animal_ A determination that an assistance animal poses a direct threat of harm must be based on an individualized assessment that relies on objective evidence about the specific animal's actual conduct — not on mere speculation or fear about the types of harm or damage an animal may cause and not on evidence about harm or damage that other animals have caused. Conditions and restrictions that housing providers apply to pets may not be applied to assistance animals. A housing provider may not deny a reasonable accommodation request because he or she is uncertain whether or not the person seeking the accommodation has a disability or a disability-related need for an assistance animal. Housing providers may ask individuals who have disabilities that are not readily apparent or known to the provider to submit reliable documentation of a disability and their disability-related need for an assistance animal. However, a housing provider may not ask a tenant or applicant to provide documentation showing the disability or disability-related need for an assistance animal if the disability or disability-related need is readily apparent or already known to the provider. A housing provider also may not ask an applicant or tenant to provide access to medical records or medical providers or provide detailed or extensive information or documentation of a person's physical or mental impairments. A request for a reasonable accommodation may not be unreasonably denied or conditioned on payment of a fee or deposit or other terms and conditions applied to applicants or residents with pets, and a response may not be unreasonably delayed. Persons with disabilities who believe a request for a reasonable accommodation has been improperly denied may file a complaint. The Air Carrier Act is the other law governing ESAs and was instituted in 1986- it is governed by the Department of Transportation (DOT). The Air Carriers Access Act: “In the Federal Register Rules and Regulations and Guidance Concerning Service Animals in Air Transportation. In 1990, the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) promulgated the official regulations implementing the Air Carrier Access Act (ACAA). Those rules are entitled Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Disability in Air Travel (14 CFR part 382). Require documentation for emotional support animals: With respect to an animal used for emotional support (which need not have specific training for that function), airline personnel may require current documentation (i.e., not more than one year old) on letterhead from a mental health professional stating (1) that the passenger has a mental health-related disability; (2) that having the animal accompany the passenger is necessary to the passenger’s mental health or treatment or to assist the passenger (with his or her disability); and (3) that the individual providing the assessment of the passenger is a licensed mental health professional and the passenger is under his or her professional care. Airline personnel may require this documentation as a condition of permitting the animal to accompany the passenger in the cabin. The airlines can refuse an assistance or ESA animal if it is engaged in disruptive behavior; shows that it has not been successfully trained to function as a service animal in public settings. And they can refuse any exotic animals, like pigs, turkeys, snakes or pocket animals.
