You are all a bunch of spineless sheep being led to your own slaughter. There is not a single reptile dealer in this world that these anti-pet people would not accuse of exactly these same things regardless of how clean and proper everything would be. You would find the conditions of any animal food processing plant, whether cattle or chickens to be horrific horror scenes. And they would be perfectly run above board operations. That’s the way it is. I still eat meat. And I still buy reptiles from dealers. Grow a pair and save your hobby. These people are conducting raids and manufacturing the story to suit their agenda. Get back on your soap box, but let’s present a united front that supports our side. If things were truly that bad at the dealer, we would know, stop buying from them, and they would be put out of business by us. If there were legitimate violations, and charges are filed (so far no...) I agree there should be zero tolerance. Just based on what was in this story, there was almost nothing to make me think the dealer has done anything wrong and several hints that they were wording certain things for negative effect.
