The one and ONLY python BAN thread (HR511)

The NYC laws were put into effect back in 2000 actually. They brought it in under the Health Dept, rather than any dept that might have some reasonable jurisdiction. Luckily, no one pays any attention to it. Again, one of those laws that seems to be there for when problems arise. I have a couple friends who are cops and they didnt know anything about it. Of course they also wouldnt know the difference between a corn snake and a python either so...

Well there ya go...my main point was that they were established before USARK even existed.

Which in some cases, can be a good thing or a bad thing!
