    Rats are 100% not native to the United States. Some species of mice are, but not all.

    That's 100% not true. There is very strong support for getting HR 669 passed in Congress. The quote from many left wingers when confronted with the damage that will be done to the pet industry is "The pet industry is collateral damage that we're willing to accept".

    Not true at all ... as of last year, there were about 2.2 million US households with either a lizard, turtle, or snake ... while about 80.4 million US households owned at least one dog or cat. Dog and Cat expos are HUGE and happen every weekend all over the United States. Some of the biggest Dog/Cat expos make Daytona and Chicago Reptile Expos look like garage sales.

    Just trying to make sure that people understand the facts and how dangerous HR 669 really is.
