Need help from everyone
Mods please forgive this multi posting, given the circumstances.
As some of you are aware the government is trying to add retics, and the other 3 species of anaconda to the Lacey act. There is a petition to stop this(I will add the link to at the bottom). We've got less than a month to get another 99,000 signatures. So we need everyone and their entire families to sign(hopefully multiple times). We need to stop this NOW, they arnt stopping here, the boa constrictor complex is next; and who knows where this will end. Those of you without any giants, please don't feel indifferent about this. You are going to need the same support when your animals end up on the chopping block. The reptile community hasn't had the best history of coming togather, and we need to change this before the only reptile industry is an underground one. Thanks for your time, and please help your fellow herpers.

Re: Need help from everyone
Spreading awareness of the situation is very commendable! I totally agree. However, suggesting in a public forum that everyone should run out and commit a form of voting fraud seems a bit counter productive. How would you feel if the bad guys attempting to legislate these laws found this post and used it as leverage against your cause? I signed it!...once.. My worthless 2 cents..

Re: Need help from everyone
I don't a have a dog in "this" fight but I can see the writings on the wall. Having your rights taken away because of the sensationalist media, misinformed congressmen, and flat out fear mongering is disgusting and scary to say the least. Ask California 2nd amendment supporters what happens when you sit back and do nothing when your rights are being threatened. Hopefully the herp community can ban together and support our python and boid brothers and sisters!

Re: Need help from everyone
I hate to poop in the middle of the parade but I really don't think retics should be in the pet trade.
