You can call me every name in the book to try to offend me, but here is the bottom line. I as an American have the freedom to catch, breed, sell, trade, import, and export reptiles freely. You as Australians don’t. You are jealous and resent the freedoms that Americans have. We have access to almost any reptile we want and you resent that. That is why you make derogatory comments about Americans. I can get all those elapids, it just takes money. The only argument you have is based on conservation which is because you have no other arguments to choose from. Your government makes your decision for you and that’s the control they want over you. They don’t want you to rebel against them and I can see they’ve done a very good job of controlling you. This website is based on captive reptiles rather than a holier than thou conservation mission. If you keep a reptile in a cage for a pet or as a collection and then come on here and bash me for doing the very same thing, than that makes you a hypocrite. If you are so against it, then why are you on here in the first place? If you have ever bought, sold, or traded a reptile than you have no leg to stand on based on what you have all been saying on this thread. So after reading this, go ahead and stray off to another topic because you have nothing better to say. I still love you Australia!
