KENNEWICK, WA (KEPR/CNN) - The parrot, named Kai, is not just a pet. She’s Mitchell Slaugh’s emotional service animal. “She’s my baby. She’s my companion,” Slaugh said. “I need her and she needs me.” Slaugh is registered to have Kai o his shoulder as his support system. As Slaugh said, “We’re tied together.” So it was like any other day for the Slaugh family when they walked into a Winco store to get groceries on Saturday. That was until the store told him his parrot had to go. “I just went in there to grab a couple items for dinner, and I had grabbed three of the five items I needed, and one of the store clerks said I couldn’t have a pet in the store,” he said. When he explained to store management that Kai was a registered service animal, he realized there is a loophole in the law. Service animals in Washington state are only described as dogs or small horses, making it legal for the store to kick Slaugh and his parrot out. “I have owned parrots for about seven years now and I have never been kicked out of anywhere for having a parrot with me,” he said. Mitchell Slaugh has owned Kai for a year now, and his wife, Mary, already can see a change. “Having abnormal thing on his shoulder makes him a normal person,” she said. KEPR spoke to the store's manager, who acknowledged that the incident happened and referred the station to the store’s corporate office. The station reached out to the corporate office but has not heard back. Mitchell Slaugh said he probably won’t be going back into Winco, and he hope more people understand the feathers on his shoulder. “The bond i have with her is very similar to that of a toddler,” he said.

He should absolutely return to this store with several small horses.
My guess is this mentally weak dirtbag looking libtard is probably a Ron Paul cult member. If he needs a bird on his shoulder to get through life's drama... then suck on the business end of a .45 acp... Help Mother Nature with natural selection
Your propensity to associate any and all distasteful things to Ron Paul shows you have a bit of a psychosis.
Did he just classify you as having a psychosis? I am pretty sure that he did. Is he practicing clinical psychology … classifying someone else for a behavioral disorder or condition? I am pretty sure he is. Doesn’t someone who engages in such activity and who does not have a license to practice as a clinical psychologist commit a crime? I am pretty sure they do. But I guess that is okay with Paultards, since when have they ever cared for laws or rules. Speaking about rules, it was just the other day, in fact it was on April 14th, that Ron Paul told fox news “rules are made to be broken.” Yep, that’s what he said … it is a direct quote. So, it appears that old Ron is still giving his Paultards free license to do anything they desire. Back to the classifying point: I hereby classify all Paultards as assholes, and I know that I do not need a license to do that. Do you think I have “one of them” psychosis too? Paultards would say yes. But then who ever listens to the Paultards. It is strongly evidenced that no one does. They just keep yapping, yapping and yapping … while others ridicule and make fun of them.
Pinguinite is a Trump supporter. Just like you. You will both be known as Trumptards eventually. Me too.

He'll be our next president, and if he screws it up, - I, and millions of other nontards, -- will get rid of him in 2020. Bet on it..
