Hey Gray,

I think your letter covers the subject pretty well. There are many things in our daily lives that are far more dangerous than the keeping of reptiles. I am sure it is a sensitive topic, especially in North Carolina, but you might bring up the issue of tobacco. How many lives does tobacco use affect annually? My guess is more people die or suffer health problems in North Carolina alone every year from tobacco use that reptiles injure or kill worldwide!



Anyhow Gray, I am a registered and active voter residing in Florida so if I may be of any assistance to you at all please let me know. I'll even travel to Raleigh to help with your presentation to the legislature, if it comes to pass.

Oh, and if you couldn't tell by the post I am definitely NOT a tobacco user!
