I went to my local WalMart Sporting Goods Counter, here in Georgetown. I told the man behind the counter that I wanted to buy a Commercial Exotic Snake permit. He surprised me by saying, "yea I know about it". As he was processing the paperwork he asked me if I knew why the permit came about? I said, "I sure do!" He responded by saying, "It's all because of the problem in South Florida and that's not going to happen here!" And this guy wasn't even a herper! Made me feel good that a non-herper can even see the BS in all of this. He said the same thing that I have been saying all along, that this is just a fund raiser for TP&W and has nothing to due with safety concerns.
