All these species that have been lost or are currently losing, you all approve of this?
I'm confused, what nonnative species was released into the wild that caused an extinction in our native animals? :confused:

No offense man, but that's seriously the dumbest thing i've heard.
PIJAC POSITION -- PIJAC supports the underlying intent of HR 669 to establish a risk-based process in order
to prevent the introduction of potentially invasive species. It has been clear for quite some time that steps are
needed to enhance and improve the current listing process for species shown to be injurious under the Lacey Act.
In addition to much needed appropriations to fund staff and other ancillary support aids, the Lacey Act needs to
be modernized to make the process more timely, efficient and transparent. However, HR 669 falls far short of
accomplishing this objective.
Not my words Neal. Not the OP's either.
I know some clown is going to jump on this and claim I support the Bill. Let me make it clear - I do not.
I do however, agree with PIJAC's position regarding additional steps being needed to improve the current listing process for potentially injurious species.
Re: I Approve of Most of H.R. 669
I see you're point, but I just don't believe somebody can half support the bill, thats all.

I DO NOT SUPPORT THIS BILL or any part of it as it stands
And I also think you need to re-read that bill and understand it fully because you do not get the BIG PICTURE all you see for now is YOU and your ability to keep your 1 or 2 pet snakes.
This is the first thought I had! What makes any one think that they will allow you to keep your pets once they are banned? They will force you to put your animals down! And the same people that are supporting this bill (the people pushing for it, not the gov officials) are supposed to be the same ones protecting our animals! People look and see who is pushing for this and think 'oh it is such and such group' they must be right they are always pushing to help the animals!
The problem with closed minded thinking is the people do not look at the big picture! They just see the little bit they want to and close out the rest!

O yea and this lol
This bill is in the first step in the legislative process. Introduced bills and resolutions first go to committees that deliberate, investigate, and revise them before they go to general debate. The majority of bills and resolutions never make it out of committee. [Last Updated: Mar 7, 2009 11:06AM]
no need to worry
You need to do some more research on what is going on my friend!
If you wait to fight for your rights (or the rights of any one else) they will be removing your rights before you get up and fight!

Re: I Approve of Most of H.R. 669
It doesn't really matter if the government will NEVER take the animals you have grandfathered in!
You will not be able to trade, breed, sell, or buy EVER AGAIN. That means that within a short period of time(a generation at most) all reptile pets will be gone FOREVER in the US.
No breeding, no importing, no transporting across state lines... if you want a gecko? Too bad.
Your neice wants to have a tortoise? Nope. Defeating the bill NOW is the answer.
