Our wacked out government is trying to take away our boas now and no one seems to care. Im getting the vibe that we already lost this fight. Bye bye boas(as well as burms, retics, anacondas, rocks, and soon to be balls)

It not that no one seems to care, it's that the numbers of us that truly do are so small. I am afraid your "vibe" has merit.
You're not gonna find all the answers or the "hope" youre searching for here or on any forum. If youre looking for a war map on "blast" here so EVERYONE can see it, friendlies and hostiles it's not gonna happen. This problem for many reasons too long to list will be battled on "stealth mode" going forward with certain exceptions, also you're assumption we've given up is very inaccurate. Keep it positive or keep it to yourself...
I am shocked this Forum didnt have 50 new messages since yesterday... I have a gravid boa and bred boas for years. It effects me too. I also have burmese. But it seems like the community as a whole already accepted this. Shame shame
Thousands of calls were made yesterday, instead of complaining on this forum. We need to stay dilligent and focused. Your personal anxiety and doubt does ZERO good for the group. We are all frustrated and want this to go away, but we will be fighting for years to come. USARK has been a God send for all of us and the best thing you can do is donate whatever you can to help USARK . They are not quiet, but are taking the necessary steps to win this war. They cant update us at every turn. I hope you called yesterday.

Not all are sheeple,many understand the force
behind this ban.
To little,to late
Sad as it is,This is the new america united.
BIG WINNER!!!! youre the kind of guy that makes others work harder to prove you wrong. Thank you! know that all you're doing here is rattling cages and getting people excited about wiping the floor with you...
I vowed not to reply to reptile dung ever again, but I can reply to you.
No, I think he is just trying to scare people into selling their animals on the cheap... That way he can pick up top notch boa's for pennies on the dollar to improve his collection. Boa's will never be added to the Lacey Act!!! It has been scientifically proven they can't survive here. There are boa's 150 miles from the US boarder in Mexico and if the could survive in Texas they would already be there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Simple science, already been proven to be a fact. He wants to add better boa's to his collection and not pay what they are truely worth. Hate people like this. It hurts those of us who have put lots of time and money into this hobby. Look at the classifieds, people like him have achieved their goal, people are selling boa's for far less than they are worth!!!

that sounds like a far fetched conspiracy, too elaborate for that guy. my gut he's tied into an animal rights group and he's here disrupting things. he's not to bright to figure it out on his own so i figured i tell him his plan hasnt and wont work.
that this will not be won by a scientific data proving what we know about boas but in a "battle of the bulge" type deal where we show we have the wherewithal to protect our rights by using the system for us the way it is being attempted to use agains us...but your point doesnt hurt about boas being safe to the northern territories, but its not going to win it for us its all about muscle. (no pun intended)
last thing to further prove you right on your point, after millions of years of evolution there is a reason boas stop in central/northern mexico and dont enter into the US. if they could survive here, we'd have the california locale boa, new mexico locale boa, texas locale boa, etc....
I will have to respectfully disagree on both points!!! I think that there is such a thing as an idiot savant and Reptilefelon may be one... As far as the boa's not being listed, the next step for HR511 is now an expert review and question and answer before the US Natural Resources Committee on the facts involved here. The herp nation will tear this bill up then. We have science on our side plus a few key people who know how to kill a bill!!!
Joe
Agree and My comments with the proper muscle it could get killed before the NR process...
ReptileFelon Let me Guess . . You didn't make any phone calls yesterday or today did you ? ? ?
You haven't contributed to U.S.A.R.K. ever have you ?
All you're contributing to the Reptile Nation is Negativity . . . . . .
I don't want your Negativity . . . none of us want your Negativity and Pessimism . . . . . take it some where else !
ReptileFelon . . . . . Turn your attitude around contribute like the rest of us are contributing to the Reptile Nation Movement.
Make the Phone Calls, send the Letters and Join U.S.A.R.K. and Make donations of time and money to U.S.A.R.K.

Someone doesn't agree here on KS
and the clown car rolls up to unload.
Buying cheap? LOL! There's no desire
here to own anything that isn't already here.
After reviewing the TOS I find nothing that
requires anyone to tolerate imposed demands
of social compliance.
I refuse to bow a knee to your usark jesus
or the KS hierarchy that "suggest ".
I retain my diluted US rights to believe as I
see fit.
FWIW, I also oppose the legalization of Marijuana
sounds like you need to play in traffic......

What part of "You Can't Beat The Government"
don't the sheeple understand?
They will soon tire of USARK's menial
and "told you so" will then be "FACT"
You can beat the government, you can influence the government, and you can change the government...it's the ones who don't try, and the ones who purport that it's a losing proposition to try that are truly the "sheeple" among us.

Covering the facts with denial gravy is like picking up
a turd from the clean end.
I think it's quite obvious that you and turds have a very close relationship.

The Govt is defeated all of the time, and this will be defeated as well. We will kill this threat, and wait for the next threat.
Baah,Baah.........BAAH
Name calling and enuido referencing clearly
secures your position(s) as prey items.
I ask all real lovers of boas to stop responding to this very ignorant human. If you are religious , then pray that he gets a brain and wakes up. To all my agnostic friends and for those who have decided not to pray , just tell him to f@#k off.
Tuff guy aint yah?
Pot -Kettle .....?
Reptile Felon, Steph F, Hugh_Jass...different username, same tired rhetoric...how simple and shallow, in so many ways... yeah...we'll gladly add this persona to the ignore list along with the rest of them...
