Re: Chill out!!!!!! Python ban threads
Ladybug I didn't wanna point it out.
Can i say as an outsider to this (I'm in the UK) this is the first time Iv'e logged on to this forum and read so many heated posts, its usually so happy and helpful a place. Some of the stuff Iv'e read today imo has been over the top. I don't see the point in arguing among ourselves. I kinda think its the people who are trying to pass this legislation that should be getting an earful.
Sorry if I'm sticking my nose in, but that's my thoughts.

You are not an outsider, you joined the family, the family accepted you, you are family..
Your thoughts matter as much as anyone's.

Re: Chill out!!!!!! Python ban threads
I avoided them purposely today. I "did my part" but the ranting and raving does nothing for me. It's why places like this are best without politics. Of course I recognize this s a unique situation for the hobby.

Re: Chill out!!!!!! Python ban threads
I made the spelling correction in an ill attempt to lighten the mood... guess it failed.
I agree the threads are nasty, I for one have an opinion but have decided to keep it to myself since really since I can not do anything to help or hinder the ban process. I hope people do speak up for what they believe in I just wish it didn't result in finger pointing and insults.
We all have our opinions and when things get personal it does not help the process. What if outsiders are looking in on all the arguments? On our members attacking each other instead of proactively working together? It makes the hobby look even more in a shambles when people start mud slinging and name calling and I really don't want anything to do with it. I read almost everything that gets posted these threads included but I really don't see the need to pick sides and argue something I cannot help.

I agree with this but since Im in the U.S., I can do my part and I did. I signed the petition and emailed letters to President Obama, Conressman Boswell and Senators Harkin and Grassley. Thats all I can do. I just have to leave the rest in God's hands. Good news is a lot of people have signed this petition.

Re: Chill out!!!!!! Python ban threads
I have stayed out of it, because my opinion is not the "popular" one.
The reality is, we need to find a way of banning people who pee in the human gene pool.

Coming from a country that has a total ban on exotics... I feel we may have the same view on the matter.
