I'm not really sure how much to freak out about this.
Part of me has always felt that bull like this is inevitable, at least in the U.S.; someone will always make a fuss about nothing of consequence and in general the public cannot do much to stop them, especially a relatively small group of enthusiasts like us.
This thread only has two replies, yet it seems like this report's implications, should it go legislative, could destroy so much that this site helps to promote. Being a neophyte in the herp world, I'm not really sure how much weight something like this carries; historically, should we all be writing letters to our senators, booking plane tickets to D.C. and buying signmaking supplies? Or is this a pretty common occurrence that we just need to wait out until it blows over?
I have so little to lose if this goes through compared to most of the people on this site... I guess I'm just amazed at how little our community here seems phased.
