HA whats to think about?!?!?

the whole proposition is based on bad science ie the rodda paper and hysteria.

the facts are...

(1)these animals CANNOT establish feral populations outside of the everglades or at least they HAVNT in the 50plus years theyve been imported and distributed all over this country.

(2)if passed it will be ILLEGAL to ship/transport/sell ALL boids out of the state you live in.



the media has ran with it, yes there have been deaths and if it bleeds it leads, but may one be reminded of the deaths from other animals like dogs, horses, cattle YEARLY as oppssed to ANY snake related death yearly hot or not.

to classify all the boids as injurous animals is absurd, sorry i just dont see much to think about there.

venomous are absolutely injurous animals, but to lump boids into that catagory, and justify it all because of the animals in the everglades?!?! NO I DONT THINK SO...

by all means give it some thought, but realize you are on a forum of snake enthusiast that STRONGLY OPPOSE THIS BILL.

i see you have a rainbow they will be lumped into boa constrictor to, everything with boa or python in the name that means everything from sand boas to brb, and ball pythons will be lumped into the 9, its the first dominoe.

heres a concept for you... REGULATION, most states have regs in place for instance here in tx. its the big 5 NOT 9 burm,retic,rock,green&yellow anaconda, permits are needed to own and breed, import, export, sell/transport these sp. the point is its NOT a national concern the individual states can deal with what they feel is needed or not in regards to snakes.

the almighty HSUS basically wrote this bill and is having it presented by their PAID representatives.

WAKE UP!
