Even if you don't like snakes please read!!! Links at bottom!!!
As a lot of you may know there is a ban that just got signed for large boa constructors such as the Burmese python. It is now illegal to sell them across state lines etc. It is a ban that is very unnecessary.
politicians are needlessly worried about large boa constructors invading frozen states, obviously can't happen. this is a Florida and other southern state specific problem and should be up to those states to regulate them, not a federal problem by banning them for all of us.
Even if you do not care about snakes, this is a dam that just allowed organizations like peta (who are trying to get rid of pets in general, not trying to save them) to push issues on other large animals including monitor lizards, tarantulas, more snakes (ball pythons), large turtles and tortoises, large amphibians, and even dart frogs. Obviously all of these things are safe, but politicians don't know that or care.
Please sign and spread these, they are very important.
