That is exactly what they are attempting to do! It has already been said here, how the HSUS is just going to wait until they see we have all calmed down and dropped our defences.
Last year they tried to ban almost ALL pets. Small pets, birds, fish etc..
Have you even seen the original list compiled of supposed "aggressive" dogs??
Which were going to considered for ban? That list included everything from poodles to pit bulls and terriers to cattle dogs! Rediculas!
Those of you saying its not about interstate transport and trade need to go back and read the original bill. You also need to look up all the crazy things these people have tried to pass in just last 2 years. They will never stop trying. Therfore you can never stop believing it WILL happen if you do not fight it. It doesnt matter what its about, dont give them that inch.
Bills get proposed and amended...Right? If the bills that are being listed right now don't include interstate, is it a possibility that they were amended? For the record, I don't feel that any of these bills need to be taken lightly. If others are taking it lightly that is thier opinion, but, not mine. What I get personally from the "update" section of USARK on this matter is that there is nothing in the bill that says what happens to animals that are already in captivity. Therefor, before passing legislation on the IMPORT of animals, there needs to be a plan on what happens to animals that are already here. I think what he is pushing for is some kind of amendment that clearly states this bill will not affect the captive breeding programs and companies in business right now.
