The permit/license will hopefully PREVENT IT before it happens.

A license wouldnt stop a gun going off, im just saying crap happens. just becuase it did happen doesnt make it your fault. You are saying to just wait for an accident to happen then move into action instead of preventing these accidents first. With a gun license the owner actually LEARNS some stuff about how to deal with guns and how to hold them and how to make sure they are un loaded and always on saftey. Making them, a person with a license, a safer owner/ user of a gun.

With a large snake being a possible danger, you stop accidents before they happen. Prevent irresponsible people from being able to own them instead of WAITING for them to do something idiotic and give the media something else to talk about hurting reptile owners reputations, and feeding people some bull hockey that theyre going to believe becuase they heard it on the news, so of course its a fact.

I dont think I can explain it much more.
Worry not, I've understood your position from the beginning. It's the position of many people. I just happen to have a different view on things. I tend to be pretty anti-government. Before this gets heated though, I'm going to bed lol. Thanks for the discussion!
