I respect a good calling-out.

I don't remember attacking you? Again, my question was, WHY (regardless of current events or really anything) is it your RIGHT to own an animal like this? (especially a venomous or crocodilian, not just the pythons and boids in question)

Obviously the large mammal people got what was coming to them, I am very glad that it's punishable by law to own one a giant cat or a pachyderm! Duh! Try to own a bear in my neighborhood, I'll b shooting a bear! What if it gets my dog? my daughter (who is very small). do i give a damn whether it's realistic or not? NO!

Those are not pets, and I don't believe in "inmates" like some of you snake folk, not even for fish. they live in large habitats designed by moi, hardly captive at all considering they don't actually leave the reef in the wild. my lizards likewise are with me right now watching me type, eating their greens on the coffee table. hardly an inmate in a drawer. My dog is sitting in an arm chair. These are pets.

dropping a mouse/rat/rabbit in occasionally so that you can watch it get eaten....? well... that i wouldn't want to bring home to my mother.

What is my point? I want you guys to understand that nobody is going to give a damn about you until your snakes seem more like PETS. At least the crazy big cat people pretend like their animals are pets... yikes!

Nobody and I repeat nobody (including me) wants you to say "my snake captives". srsly what are you guys trying to kill your own hobby?!?!? Also nobody cares if you feel it's your right, bc nowhere in the constitution does it say "everyone gets at least one ridiculous carnivorous animal to keep in their home".
