Aaron,

Points taken but I disgaree. I have explained why I disgaree and you have explained why you support. Barry's plan is not horrible but like I said it is arbitrary. I don't support arbitrary. I support transparent, unbiased data backed reasoning to impose regulations. That is my position. Arbitrary regulations continue to advance the slippery slope and I am against the slippery slope. To me people that support the slippery slope and arbitrary regs are bad for the industry. Which is why I don't agree with your and Barry's position. I agree that it is easier to enforce but I don't want easier to enforce, I want fair. Arbitrary regs without supporting data are not fair. Arbitrary regs take away people's rights. And my position will also create jobs here in the US. It will put much more focus on herp populations which is good for the herp populations. I don't think you can really argue with that. My plan is better by far for herp populations in the long run. Instead of saying "we don't know" we can say "we know" when it comes to the health of herp populations. Do you understand what I mean? I think we have said our peace on this.
