Hey Curtis,

The thing is, it's really all about responsible parenting and cleanliness. Unfortunately turtles have taken a bad rap, and as a result, captive breeding was discouraged and wild populations were raped. At this point the antiquated law is pretty much ignorned for the most part by all sides, but it would be nice to see it dissolved, so it doesn't have to feel like a drug deal, but I don't work in congress, nor is it probably a high priority right now, considering the other issues at hand, like our economy. I'm not stating anything that probably most people here don't already know, but sometimes it feels good to "get it off your chest"
