These people are not ignorant they are just uninformed, misinformed or being intentionally fed disinformation by people who have an agenda and enough clout to get heard. We need to make it our job to provide them with the means to expand their knowledge on the subject. Provide them with the valid information they need to rethink the situation. Refer them to the Barker's articles that detail the flaws in the USGS report. Show them that we are responsible keepers who want what is best for everyone and all side by suggesting alternatives (i.e. permits for large constrictors, cage standards, etc...)
