Which is precisely why I believe the ONLY way there is even a snowball's chance in you know where to save our hobby is to go after the corrupt government employees (ie, our employees) who generate the propaganda. I have no idea how to do that, but if they are not exposed and the public continues to be lied to, we might as well fold 'em up and go home.

Anyway, thanks for taking action. I followed another poster's lead and just contacted one of my local news stations here in Raleigh, NC.

Thanks,
Ed

>>I understand and agree with your point of view. My approach is not save my snakes, but save your rights! My friends who do sign are the same ones that vent with me about our political complaints (a whole different thread!). In fact, that's why they oppose HR669. Most of them only have cats and dogs, but oppose the government interference and wasteful spending.

>>But without even mentioning it, they bring up the python ban. In FL, the general public is well aware of the "escaped and menacing" Burmese python threat. Trying to explain to them the economic impact of banning all pythons, etc is like talking to a wall. They already have a presupposition before I bring it up.
