Dogs Should Be Allowed Everywhere Babies Are Allowed
Summary
A straphanger with a small dog makes the case that "dogs should be allowed everywhere that babies are allowed," arguing that canines can clean up the messes screaming infants leave at restaurants. Kareem pushes back hard. Should dogs really go to movie theaters? Grocery stores? The dentist? The rider has actually brought their dog to the doctor's office, placing it in shopping carts with a coat underneath. They propose a size-based system when they become mayor. Kareem isn't buying it. He's "more radicalized" against the idea than when they started, though he admits this particular dog, described as "an exceptionally beautiful creature," can go wherever it wants.

So what's your take? Dogs should be allowed everywhere that babies are allowed? 100% disagree. Dogs belong outside.
No, no. Dogs should be allowed inside everywhere that a baby goes. A dog should be allowed to go. That sounds dangerous. Restaurants, movie theaters, airplanes, hotels, all the things.
Movie theaters? You want to bring your pit bull to a film? Pigeon stall knives out in theater with me? Well, this is an exception. This is an exceptionally beautiful creature. Wow. I wouldn't even classify this as a dog. I would by this as a creature.
When you go out to dinner and you hear babies screaming and crying and throwing things on the ground, you should consider if a dog should be allowed there too because also the dogs can clean up the mess that a baby leaves. But save—I mean, should we put human lives ahead of dog lives?
You want to bring your dog to the grocery store? Oh, I do. I actually do.
And is it walking on the ground like a dog, or is it sitting in the US? I put him in the cart with like a coat underneath. Put in the—yeah, you bring a bed, a coat or a scarf or something.
What about the doctor's office? Have brought him to the doctor's office, and you know what? The doctor was pleasantly surprised.
What about—well, this is an exception. What if you had a golden retriever in the dentist office? Yeah, that sounds to me like an occupational hazard because those things are dumb and big.
Yeah. Well, the log with dogs coming places—when I—when I'm mayor, it will have nuance to it. So like, dogs under a certain size can go to certain places. We'll workshop it. I mean, I think that this is awful. I'm winning you over.
No, no, no, no. No. Let me tell you, I am more radicalized in the direction that I originally came in. Okay, with the exception of this—this can stay. This can go wherever it wants. Yeah, this thing is okay.
Okay, all right. I'll take it.
