I think it has more to do with the anti-pet groups being more vocal than the pro-pet guys. Generally, we don't make a stink until the anti groups start something and try to push it through. By then its almost to late and you see all of the forums light up, and people start signing petitions. If we are more vocal than these groups before they try something then we wouldn't have to sweat it so much.
I was listening to the radio, and there was a pole about inappropriate things seen on TV. Only 4% of people had ever called to report that they were offended by something on TV. 95% never called, so we can assume they were not offended, but guess which group is heard louder? The ones that call are the reason I will never see another tata exposed during the superbowl. If the other 95% would call and say they liked what they were seeing, and are fine with the programming, then then the FCC would HAVE to listen.
Same thing with herps.
If we let them know they can't take our herps BEFORE they try, we don't have to try to nip bills that are about to pass.
