New to this, burms in the everglades?

[33rpm]

Yup it's so pointless to have the burm on the Lacey act. The whole pitch the politicians had was that if they cross state lines they will escape and take over land all over the county. When the truth is they would all die over the winter anyway, even Florida gets too cold for them. All it is was a chance for a politician to get his name on a bill. They could care less what the bill does.

I'm not "up" on herp laws, per-say...as I only own 1 measly BP. My question is, are the politicians who sign/create these bills usually dems, reps, other? Or is it a combination of all the above? Not that it really matters in the end, I guess...

Please correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the Dem's started the issue, and a few rep's have hopped on the bandwagon. I think the dem's are the driving force, but I'm not entirely sure. I believe east coast reptile breeder (colin weaver) has a great blog post on it. found here : http://ballpythonbreeder.com/2012/07...erpetoculture/
