Even venomous in a locked cage cannot be used in an educational show at a public school. Nor would the kids be allowed to touch a venomoid. All protocols stay in effect. They can possibly touch or handle a kingsnake or comp perhaps. Depends on the kid, the person conducting the educational show (in this case, me) and a lot of other factors.

Personally, I wish I owned a venomoid (properly done, of course) for the educational show at the local public school. It would be good for the kids in kindergarten class to learn about them, and to learn to avoid them if they are to encounter one. But all of my hots are fully loaded so it's not going to happen.

As far as abortion goes, I can see where there would be instances in which it is needed. Then again, I am not a narrow-minded individual that just follows the herd. I believe in allowing people to have choices and rights in this world. Nuff said...
