Come on, he does have a point. I feel that responsible and properly educated keepers of large constrictors are not the problem, but irresponsible breeders and sales practices are.

Large constrictors like retics, burms and even red tails have no business being sold to the general public. No matter what you say, these are dangerous animals that require very specialized experience and lots of resources to keep. I have seen albino burms and common red tails for sale in Petco. That is downright ridiculous.
