From the Kinsgsnake Herp Law Center & Forum



1. No discussion on the REMOVAL of any species from the trade will ever be allowed. Sky is the limit on what is included.

2. If you are not an old "herper" your opinion on "herp laws" is not welcome. Apparently you have to keep the animal to understand whether it belongs in the wild, even if you believe that most animals do. - this is perceived as arrogance here.

3. If you have a bad experience with a snake, don't share it here unless you like making new nicknames for yourself. You will be called a sissy, a fool, and even insane.

4. Nobody has anything to lobby with, there is no "counter" for the Pet's Rights people in regards to the legislation that supposed "AR" groups are proposing.

5. If an animal can be "captive bred" then it should be.

6. Nobody here seems to hold the reptile community at fault for the feral reptile populations of the world, however, we should thank breeders for supplying ample amounts to the pet trade (which of course ended up in the nations wilderness when people did not want them anymore, not seen as a current practice).

7. If you are pro-legislation for pets, you are definitely anti-pet.

8. Venomous animals are completely reasonable to own. If you can "care" for it.

9. This community would do well, (bc of so many like-minded people) but is still trying to do it's thing "the old fashioned way" with democratic process and ideals of justice. Unfortunately enough, some time in some of these peoples lives we went from that good stuff^ to capitalism (tyvm baby boomers). In capitalism corporations rule, not associations and unions. With the hundreds of capitalist AR acronym-bearing groups flying at them... all they have are a few "old fashioned affiliations".

10. This community is an extremist pet organization. I used to be a member of USARK but i'm retracting myself due to my own beliefs on animals, animal welfare, and animal rights.
