Im guessing that you refer to Tom Crutchfield, he's always been a hero of mine due to movies, but I wasn't aware of where he resided. Yes my cyclura are his line (i was told) and yes I'm thankful to him for my pets. But do I think that they are for everyone? no. Should I need a permit? I have one anyway. I would go get another if my state said I needed to. Not bc it protects people, it protects reptiles from ignorance (which I am of course guilty of with my roommates retic/burm project)
I had wanted to breed burms and my friend brought a retic from the yearly OKC (bob clark) tradeshow. He was told that "it happens and it works", from L-rd knows who. I suspect you haven't made any bad decisions or investments in this hobby? Ya right. One act of ignorance does not make me completely ignoramus, but judge/label me as you will.

I believe that all they are after is money, permits generate money. Propose something anyway! It's a solution, maybe not a good one. But my inteligence doesn't need to be brought into this just because I don't believe the way that you do.
