Wow is all I have to say

isnt the second amendment the right to bear arms?

Yes, that's what I was saying, we have an amendment that covers the right of the people to own firearms and for years we've lost a little more of our rights every year. So, my point was, if the 2nd can be ignored, how can we expect our representatives to listen to a few thousand hobbyist talking about don't ban my snake, but the other snakes are okay to ban.

We need to speak their language, we have to tell them in no uncertain terms, if you vote for this bill, you will lose my vote.

We need to tell them that this is not the responsibilty of the Federal government. This is a state issue and does not need to be addressed by them.
