Be sure to mention that the reptile and exotic animal business is fast becoming a billion dollar a year business. Setting such regulations would only exclude their state from part of this possible income and taxes Anyways, a retile store without your old favorites would be like going to a fireworks stand that only sells sparklers.


:This is a copy of an email I sent to each and every one of the representatives
:It is definately worth your time and effort to do this if they do not follow through
:with the ban..

:Here is the email.

:Hello

: I am not a Washington citizen but I happen to be an individual who travels around the United States. I am writing this in support of free ownership rights of the Washington people. It is my and many educated individuals opinions that as an American we should have the rights to ownership of what ever pets we see fit. Is it not the wonderful freedoms that set this great Nation apart from those around the world?
: I am personally willing to stand up and say please do not ban the freedoms of these people who believe enough in you and the system to elect you to your current postion, if this ban is passed I will personally end all tourism to your beautiful state and will inform others who share my thoughts on reptile ownership about the ban and they should follow suit and not give your state our hard earned American money.

:Thank you for your valueable time Sincerely Randall L Turner Jr.
