Wow, are you ever judgemental!

Saying "He'd better never get, oh, I don't know, a dog? a cat? Good lord, I could lend him a parrot or a horse...then he'd think himself a punished slave is snakes are high-maintenance!"



I'd like to see you do half his tour schedule and tell me taking care of yourself isn't high maintenance afterwards. He's on the road more than you or I are at home, so taking care of anything, would be difficult and high maintenance. And I for one think he's right, reptiles are high maintenance, you essentially have to create a small ecosystem for each species you have. All herps have specific requirements. For someone who's not home frequently, this poses a problem.



And then YOU continue by saying "Wow, along with some of the other stuff he is saying, I have now lost all my respect for him. I know what he says about feeling OK with snake keeping, but hes sure going to help nail us to the wall in the eyes of the "average Joe"."



Have you even read what you just wrote? You judged an entire human being on 3 seconds of a TV interview that YOU very obviously misunderstood the point. Saying you've lost all respect for him, pffft, you're likely jealous. Jealous he's had the opportunity to Carpe Diem, and see parts of the world you'll never see. That man has drinken cow urine in India! Eaten rat roasted over an open fire. Don't even pretend to come in here talking like you know a damn thing about Henry Rollins. I've got more respect for him than 1000 of you. He's done lots for the herp community, what have you done? He's done tonnes for the music community, what have you done? Hell, he's contributed to the world as a whole simply by photographing it in his book Occupants, what have you done? Lost all respect for him? Pffft, you don't know a damn thing about respect.
