Do we agree that large constrictors are "essentially dangerous"? Do we agree that they should be "declared a public nuisance" and that exposing people to them should be a crime? Should "suggesting, enticing, inviting or inducing" someone to handle a snake be a crime? Do you want the government to tell you how your animals should be kept? Do you think we need additional rules governing transport of snakes? Do you this its necessary that we be licensed and registered to keep large snakes? Have we lost our collective minds??

Please don't come back with "if we don't regulate ourselves they'll do it for us". What has happened to us? Why do we submit to this kind of interference in our daily lives. Its almost like we expect and want someone else to tell us what to do. Maybe we will eventually have to submit to some restrictions on our personal freedoms but I will not submit voluntarily and start negotiations by giving away the store.
