Screw the arguments, read this month's issue of Outdoor Life, page 8. Article: Pythons in Paradise.

When it get's cool most of them take shelter in the hammocks. I'm using machete & crossbow w/ manchineel sap-covered bolt tips. 30days, app. 100 a day. break for a 2-wk. resupply. Repeat same 1 month later. You do the math. If the state offers a bounty I don't want it. Irradicating this aggressively-breeding invader of my fine state will be my pleasure!

You have less than 3 months.

Thank you for your time, and I think you can see I have been nothing but respectful to you, and have provided a valid, and constructive arguement which totally debunks the vast majority of your opinion in a logical manner.

There is no need to threaten people with court orders.

Exotics keepers are, generally, nice people. Like me. : )

[tw1stedgrudge]

Anyway, last of all, I feel I have given a solid argument against every case you have made here, and have refuted most, if not all of your allegations. I have basically thrown out almost all of your entire argument and rendered it invalid. If you have any further questions, please direct a pm to me and we can discuss our views further. I feel arguing on someones video to be a bit distasteful and difficult, given size constraints.

[tw1stedgrudge]

You can just as easily bunch all of these animals together, and with the invocation of PROPER homes with tax dollars I have already proposed, these animals can be adopted out for free. Many people will take them. There should be no profit made on them, because they were taken from the wild and free to begin with.

[tw1stedgrudge]

I disrespect your opinion of killing animals with machetes. Its an interesting way to get yourself involved with the law yourself, especially if you publically admit it. Im not entirely sure of that areas laws  but if said animal is NOT classed as vermin or has not been put under an act to cull; then you yourself can be in possibility of landing in court on animal rights charges.

[tw1stedgrudge]

Its kindof like saying just because one person is fat because they eat lots of burgers, means EVERYONE is fat because they eat burgers. Thus, if we ban burgers, there wont be any fat people anymore.

Its a stupid point of view.

[tw1stedgrudge]

Just by looking at official numbers, and not relying on bias views, we can see reptiles are by FAR the best pets to keep, besides fish, which have almost no accidents at all. I, personally, am not in any way involved with a bad keeper. Simply because Im a good keeper and a bad keeper throws his turtles into the local pond does not make me legally, morally, or psychologically entitled to do something about it nor can I. I would be endangering my life to dive into a pond after some turtles.
