As am I. But it doesn't bother me that much. I guess you can view the restriction on 'machine guns' the same way you'd view restrictions on owning tigers and bears

I dislike resriction on machine guns. Hell the machine gun ban is illegal. But I view still breaking the law being an idiot
While I see no practical use to owning machine guns. Sighting that restrictions on firearms as illegal/unconstitutional I would also point out that when the constitution was written the founding framers envisioned no standing military but rather a militia/conscript based army so the right to bear arms fed into that notion. Soon as we created the military industrial complex that we have come to know today its apparent that the Constitutional relevance of that right is kinda out the window, like how the constitution also allows slavery but we don't do that any more. Not saying owning guns make you a nut or that I'm personally ardently against guns or anything just pointing out that there is much more to the this than the NRA or Democrats would have you believe. When you look at the history of it all both camps kinda make totally irrelevant or inaccurate arguments.

can we breed guns and protect them from extinction??? lol
protect them from extinction??? lol
If the liberals go extinct, then yes, we can protect guns

Good luck. We are tougher than cockroaches.

Let's make that "anti-gun activists" rather than "liberals." I know plenty of liberal gun owners, and a few conservative people who are against guns. This is another example of the fact that the laws do not matter to some and those few will still get what they want even if it's illegal, so banning guns would only just disarm the people who play it legal and would leave them at risk.
But this thread is about the exotic animal situation, so back to that now...
Sucks that this situation happened but with the history of neglect and the authorities really doing nothing about it, I think the blame lies everywhere from where the dude got his animals from to the town that knew about the situation and did not enforce or remove the animals before this happened to the sick individual and the mental health field that is failing a lot of mental ill people everywhere.
I would personally would re-examine the industry and go through it throughly where the problem areas are at and address them instead of banning it outright. To keep peoples jobs to start with.
I personally don't think its appropriate for anybody to be keeping venomous snakes as they have no business risking the public due to the act of god such as hurricanes/tornados they cannot guarantee the animal will be still kept in the cages etc. The only appropriate places are at the zoos for public or for collecting venom to save lives otherwise to keep them as pets is really dumb thing to do when there are so many snakes out there thats not going to harm the public with their venom or large snakes
Look at what happening to florida right now with exotics threatening the public, no thanks to idiots who bred them and sold them to the wrong persons. The breeder is equally as responsible as the stupid owner. Same goes for huge felines such as tigers. Who bred them should have been held accountable.
