A member is on TV! (Intervention)

Well, it's happened all over again folks! I just watched the end of a show on everyone's
favorite animal channel, Animal Planet. They were talking about the risk the father,
(Patrick) was taking with his 2 reticulated pythons (13 '), and 1 burmese python (12'),
and his son who is 8 years old. I forget which state but I think maybe Texas or New
Mexico? What the local authorities were saying, was that Patricks' cages were not safe
enough to keep the snakes controlled enough to keep them from getting out. Similar to
a case that this thread was first created for! Well, bottom line is that Patrick told the
Humane Society and authorities that he was keeping the retic's and burmese. The
authorities convinced him to give all of his snakes up to prevent a possible charge
brought on from DA's office where a Judge would make the decision in his behalf.
Probably would have confiscated his snakes.
Anyhow, I only brought this to everyones attention since it was very similar to Danny's
situation. I hope everyone get's a chance to see it! Now, don't beat me up for bringing
this information to you. Skiploader has my back, so be a little more understanding and
don't shoot the messenger! Thanks!

You're a real peach, aren't you?

What do YOU like to enjoy in life? Do you keep dogs? I can point out people who keep dangerous dogs chained up on flimsy chains, or behind fences that are easily jumped or dug under. In fact, as a child, I was attacked by two big dogs who escaped their back yard. Do you like cars? Restoring old cars, maybe, or admiring cool sports cars? I can point out people who race illegally on the streets all the time and put innocent children in danger on a regular basis.

What's my point? There is no point. There's no point in your post either. MAYBE some guy doesn't have adequate caging for his big snakes. MAYBE some idiotic television producer gets his jollies by making it LOOK like the guy is evil. Your post makes no point whatsoever...proves nothing...says nothing....teaches nothing. All it does is demonstrate the truth we all know that there are people in the world who are dead-set on stirring up trouble in whatever small way they can, just to watch the fire burn.

It's like...internet arson...or something....let's pour on some gas and light a spark and see if we get a big boom!

I feel sorry for you...that you seem to have nothing better or more productive to do than this. What a sad, little life.

JLC, you are right on...... I do have a sad little life. I have been going through tough
times retrospecting things I coulda, woulda, and shoulda done. All I was trying to do
here, was not to pass judgement on anyone else, but to bring these kind of situations to
lite. If most of you truly feel that I bring absolutely nothing to this thread, then I will be
happy to oblige you and get out. Instead of beating me up, your anger should be
directed more to the networks (Animal Planet) Judicial system, and various state laws
that are not consistent with each other across the board! Give me a yes or no and I will
be obliged to honor majority rule. Skiploder, where you be when I need you? This Troll
is going...going..going.

Why would our protests against your trolling indicate that we don't direct our anger at networks like Animal Planet and ridiculous lawmakers?

If you're actually interested in reptiles...the keeping of them, the admiring of them, the natural conservation of them...there's no reason why you can't or shouldn't participate at this site. If your only purpose here is to stir the pot and point fingers at people you know nothing about...then please go.

I've always loved that album cover, but I think this is a better song for this situation.

Yeah, but the boys are 19 and 21 now, they stopped listening to those types of songs quite a while ago (though I can still remember of lot of them even now. Repetition is a great teaching tool.)

It was really more of a comment on my estimation of 'Mr Stars' age.
