If we would have let them put regulations on snakeheads maybe instead of being 100% banned you could still get them. As long as you got a permit. Eventually Pacu and RTC will probably be 100% banned if people keep releasing them so lets save them while we can!
No, it was just funny and a general view of reflection towards you saying no permits to fish keeping and your name. E-coli is a general bacteria that hurts people across the board. Unless I'm misunderstanding and reading too far to your response, your views on any permits of any kind on fish keeping is no across the board. Think of it in terms of people too, while we know people can live in a 10x10 cell in jail, it stunts their growth, they are unhappy. But unlike fish they can just leave for "outside play time." And IIRC prison cells used to be smaller than that to begin with and most of solitary still is.

It will have problems and consequences if people keep doing what they are doing. But seeing a takeover like snakeheads have in comparison to pacu and RTC's and other large fish like oscars for example. Hard to see entirely. Simply for climate. Ocars I don't think will ever get to a point where they can thrive in waters that are below 50 degrees. Not 100% off the top of my head if RTC's and pacu fall into that as well.
Sure there ought to have a law for this and that. A few things: who is going to pay for enforcement? Why grow the government any bigger? Why would you want to give any more power to authorities? Pretty soon, something as reasonable as feeding a live fish to another fish, a perfectly natural thing to do may even be banned
