[QUOTE="Oursapoil, post: 209426, member: 33266"] Good morning gents, I believe there are valid points on both side that would deserve further discussions. It doesn’t feel like a yes or no questions as it would definitely affect some states more than others regardless of which direction the law ends up going. Example in point I am living close to two Petco, separated by just a couple of miles. One can sell Ts, the other can’t. In addition to regulations at a federal and states level, there are also regulations at The city level (NYC in this case). Seeing valid points on both sides, it is fair to say that people will side with what affects them the most. Unfortunately these types of laws are often created without sufficient inputs from the people they directly affect. I encourage everyone to reach out and have an open conversation on how the law could be adjusted or changed to maximize its benefits to both sides. Hoping the direct impact on the hobby would be limited while protecting the wildlife, ecosystems and hobby in the longer run. Nothing is stopping anyone from reaching out to our representative and voicing concerns, at the worst it’ll show them that people are paying attention and you might as well also be the first person they’ll hear from that is passionate about the hobby. Time to make a good impression either way ;) Cheers. [/QUOTE]
