Very good video. I too wish I had a teacher like him in highschool. Could someone explain to me what he was talking about with the whole BHB alligator incident? I watched the part twice but Im having trouble getting his point or what the story was..?

BHB put out how he was a fan of one of the guys on Shipping Wars who is in to reptiles. BHB thought it was good publicity. Then, the internet armchair quarterbacks did nothing but slam the guy's husbandry, and as often happens, completely missed the point. I am astounded by the folks who cannot see the forest for the trees.

I hear what he's saying, but I think we need to be very cautious of our image right now, and I'm not sure he said it all as clearly as he might have.
Some people may take away from this that he's saying we should ignore real husbandry problems when we spot them. Obviously we cannot ignore animal abuse or neglect--doing so is the opposite of what we want to accomplish in the hobby. I'm pretty sure that he means we need to stop nitpicking over minor differences in husbandry, and such.
I'm a little concerned about the video proliferating it in its current form, as a result of that ambiguity.
As for his intent and meaning, I agree with it 100%.
