Even if you are not into Snakes,Even if you fear Snakes.If you live in the United States..You should watch this video,and pay attention whats going on..In the time of our shit economy the government passes laws that will cause people to lose their jobs,lose millions of dollars,if not their homes..Don't think for a second that they are not gonna go after other animals,HSUS wants YOU to have NO animals of any kind EVER,and they are supported by the government..But we need animals in captivity,due to humans need to populate everything.Wasn't for animals in captivity they would eventually be extinct, some already are,and some only exist in captivity..

If you wanna protect your rights,your personal liberty then please sign this petition.

And don't say snakes are dangerous they are only dangerous to stupid people..And horses kill more and injure more people than any other animal..But sooner or later horses will be banned too.

you hear about more pugs eating faces and german shepards killing people than snakes. except for the dumb ass that wants to go and tickle a cobra

thats another thing Cobras in captivity supply venom among many other snakes.that help fight cancer,diabetes, arthritis,pain killers and a lot of other things..Snakes help humans more than any other animal (health wise)..This is just the beginning..Don't think your cute cuddly animals are safe,because they are not.

I agree that some animals need to have a captive population to keep the species alive and also learn more about them to aid the quest for their survival but pet ownership does need to be more regulated... too many idiots who mistreat animals. Lets hope those of us who look after them well are not penalised though.

i signed the petition and sent letters to the president and congress from the link. my personal comment was:

snakes are gross, but infringement on liberty is an affront to every American. Please Mr. Obama, stop protecting us by taking away our freedom.

Yes americans should be able to own face ripping chimps and keep lions in small apartments just because!

Animals are only dangerous to stupid people.or ignorant people..But with the media hype,I can understand why you feel this way.

there are laws and things people have to follow in order to have certain exotic animals...the people you just explained are stupid if they are just keeping them in small apartments and not the correct tanks, cages, etc...if people take the proper steps and have the proper training to handle the animals they should be allowed to have them
