Okay you guys. Florida has already implemented a permit requirement for any snake that can potentially go over 8 feet long. To get the permit, you will need to take some training classes and some government guy will inspect your enclosure. So, it is the best solution in my opinion. Nothing super drastic like banning, but it makes certain that people getting giants know what they're getting into. I don't know how they monitor inter-state sales. All I know is that if you go to the reptile store close to my house, the guys will ask for your permit before you can purchase the big crawlies.
