The discussion about this bill has been going on for a really long time now actually.

It doesn't mention anything about Boids.

Just get a permit,and your good to go.I dont think they are that expensive, and even if it is, i think its worth it.

Getting a permit's easy unless you plan to breed. I had to have one to keep my snakes in Delaware County, and it was as simple as going to the department in charge of it:
Tracie: "Hi, I'd like a permit to own snakes."
ClerK: "Kay. How many?"
Tracie: "3 at most."
Clerk: "Anything over 6 feet?"
Tracie: "Most likely not."
Clerk: "Gonna breed them?"
Tracie: "Nope."
Clerk: "Sign this."
I doubt it'll pass, but if it does, you'd do well to be prepared. And thank the boxheads that keep Burms in their NYC efficiency and let them get out for pushing this bill closer and closer to signing.

Brian would need his parents to get the permit.
I highly doubt they give permits out to minors.
-
Oh, derp. I completely forgot about that.
Yeah, get your mom to do it.

Where is this? I odn't want to move to an area that has these laws and not know about it before hand

Welcome to New York, everyone, the "I can't stand to see anyone have any kind of fun whatsoever, so let's make a bunch of stupid laws banning anyhting that could possibly lead to injury, except sports and racecar driving" state.
If this keeps up, I am moving to Maine or something, lol.

Well, thats just stupid, I can think of lots of pets that hurt people every day, be it intentional or other wise.
