    Re: Pets in Peril!!!!!!!!!!!!! - Say no to HR 669
    Can someone tell me who proposed hr 669 in the first place. I think I read somewhere that it was an activist group but I can't for the life of me remember the name or where I saw it.

    Also I'm looking for websites that support hr 669.... :O I know.... could they exist? I'm having a very hard time finding any credible sources for the other team. But, as a great teacher once taught me, every good argument sites both sides.... so I need a positive opinion of hr669 to make my negative opinion more valid. (I am in fact explaining to my ex-teacher why I'm opposing this thing, he's very political and we've kept in touch cause he's just that great)

    Thanks.

    Also has anyone seen this?

    http://www.house.gov/baca/hotissues/video_factsheet.htm

    It lists HR 669 as Protect Children From Video Game Sex & Violence Act of 2003

    I know 2003!! but still people are often quick to judge and don't read. I hope no one sees this and thinks: Yes!!! I'd vote to that. And it's one of the first things that pops up on google when you type in hr 669

    :rolleyes:

    Thanks Brian, Adam and all of you working so hard to see our rights as pet owners protected. We've just entered spring break here and I'm going to use some of that family time to encourage my own kids to step up and help protect the snakes and the family hobby we love so much.

    Didn't read all the responses. I sent an E-mail to Parker Griffin and got an automatic email back. Happen with everyone else? It states that he will hand write me a letter back.

    AWESOME Robin!!!! I posted a flier and handed out several copies out at our local Mom & Pop yesterday... The best thing that happened was some of my bird buddies said, "Yea! We've already received info on this"... but now they are also going to be using the sight after I explained how EZ it was to use. (Props again Brian, Adam, and awesome camera guy)! We had dinner at a friends that I had sent the link to, and he's sending it to all his pals. Hopefully all these little waves will keep adding up!

    An even better way to get attention it to send letters. LOTS AND LOTS OF LETTERS!

    I've made an "8 Simple Steps to Stopping HR669" kind of thing.

    Follow this link or go to my website:

    We need to send letters, lots and lots of letters. That's what will matter. Emails can be deleted and ignored, thousands of letters are much harder to ignore.

    Please send letters.
