I will move away first Kat.

They are my everything (just below my family)

You can appreciate this....

We have a new law that requires a full background check just to purchase a box of shotgun shells

They also impose a 3 box limit per purchase (at least the local wal marts do)

People are buying up reloading equipment like crazy here.

We laso have a 7 round clip limit, get caught with a gun that holds more than 7 rounds of ammo at once and you are a crimminal.

So I guess those $100 marlin .22 semi autos are considered illegal to own now.

such crap.

Wait...we shouldn't have to fight to keep our animals? The world should just allows us whatever we want? Dangerous or not?

I stand by what I said. If this comes up anywhere else then show up in person if this really bothers you and that you enjoy where you live. Make a stand. It's not difficult to do. I'd do it for you but the problem is they don't care about me since I live in Canada.

Oddly enough I find myself in agreement with Aaron. At least I can say I fought the Dangerous Animal Act in Ohio.

Good for you. I hope some good came from it.

Yes, in contrast to other animals, reptiles got the far better deal after quite a bit of a lobbying push. Licensing requirements for snakes over 12ft and venemous snakes are still rather restrictive. (Crocodilians got the bad end of the deal.) There is still a lawsuit pending, and while I'm not getting my hopes up, I am supporting the organization who brought forward the lawsuit.
