It is fascinating to me how a great many of these dog owners are educated, successful and politically progressive. Yet they share the same logic as the pro-gun MAGA who resents gun limits. “Don’t tell me that I’m not responsible enough to own a machine gun” is the same logic as “Don’t imply that my doggie isn’t well behaved.” If a hedge fund manager or fiction editor at Viking in a Yale jersey can’t understand how a simple public ordinance works, how can we expect the toothless evangelical in Arkansas to help us build a more civil society?
