What you have to keep in mind is this. This has never been about science or facts for the people pushing this agenda. That goes for the HSUS and the scientists who wrote tailored "reports" to bring about the ideological goals of those individuals. Even if all the Burms died, reasonable people would rejoice knowing that the Burm problem, which has only been in the Everglades, has been at least tremendously set back. The masses who have been whipped into a frenzy of fear can breathe a sigh of relief. All those pushing Federal legislation will be revealed for their real motivation when they do not alter their own path at all. The "Scientists" that said Burms would go all the way to the Ohio Valley were not “wrong”. They knew what they wrote was a fabrication. They didn’t believe it. The people who signed off on those reports didn’t believe it. They wrote exactly what the people who commissioned them to write wanted them to write. The next statements coming from the “PHDs”, whose custom written science has been turned upside down, will prove that beyond any doubt.



This is not over for them. This is a war of tactics to deceive and get their animal rights agenda passed. It has nothing at all to do with legitimate science or real fear. This will only be a major monkey wrench for them. That's all. This is not the end for them, and anyone who thinks that these people have the character to admit that they are wrong, does not understand what this is all about for those who mean to bring about this new legislation.



They saw the gold ring and were just reaching for it when everything they have said about the danger of invasiveness has turned to crap. This has not changed the fact that they think they almost had that ring on their finger. They still can’t stand the idea of one species, humans, owning another species, reptiles. That is what this is all about.



The cold weather hurt them and hurt them bad. They will however remain undeterred.
