YEA A LOCAL LAW.....FOR FLORIDA...NOT A NATIONAL ONE! THE POINT OF THIS THREAD IS THAT THE NATIONAL GOVERNMENT HAS NO RIGHT TO MAKE THESE KIND OF LAWS. It is absolutely asinine to think that the national government should ever consider a national ban like this...or a national ANYTHING regarding our rights to own/transport these animals! This is an issue that is affecting ONE of our fifty states and even the thought of the national government getting involved is so convoluted it baffles me!
