I Approve of Most of H.R. 669

I hear a lot about "coming to take our animals away" whenever this bill (or anything related to reptiles and lawmaking) comes up.... just to clarify for you guys:

"(f) Animals Owned Lawfully Prior to Prohibition of Importation- This Act and regulations issued under this Act shall not interfere with the ability of any person to possess an individual animal of any species if such individual animal was legally owned by the person before the risk assessment is begun pursuant to subsection (e)(3), even if such species is later prohibited from being imported under the regulations issued under this Act."

Just felt like randomly popping in to make sure you guys see that section.... however with that being said, also know I don't support this bill at all and will be speaking out against it... as others have put it, the idea is noble, but the execution is all wrong.
