The one and ONLY python BAN thread (HR511)

[Aaron_S]

Red Ink I like your question. To follow in your wake, people need to realize island locales generally are small IN THE WILD because they are on an island with very limited food sources. When Jampea retics came in people claimed they were 12 foot max. Tell that to the people who had 16 foot females. Also, I would like to point out that snakes grow forever. They don't "max" out. They get to a size and slow down a considerable rate of growth.

Millertime, you ask that I don't voice my opinion so YOU can voice YOURS to win your argument? Talk about hypocrite. You're allowed to do something but I am not. You're forcing your opinions on us. It is my opinion that this needs to go through and I have NO problem fighting for that. I take great offense to you thinking I DON'T know why you don't want this ban.

I'd also like quotes in regards to shutting down ball pythons too.

Ok before I say anything, you are entiltled to your opinion just like everyone else. That having been said, its easy to say youre for this ban when it doesnt affect you since you live in Canada. With this ban, I cant buy snakes in St Louis, Kansas City or even Omaha, a city only 2 hours from here. This I dont understand. Ill either have to go underground to get my snakes or be limited to what Des Moines has to offer since there are no other reptile shows in Iowa. Can you explain to me why this ban should go forward from a point of logic?
