maybe I should get rid of my dogs and cats because they sure can carry the rabies virus? How about a cat bite or scratch? They can turn ugly! ANd when dogs bark, it hurts my ears and "maybe" I'm experiencing some hearing loss? I wonder if the Henrico County Human Society will take back our old dog I got from them. He's becoming more of a health risk to us as I sit and wonder at all of the possibilities that "could" occur! LOL Please! Talk about hysteria.

I do agree with the CDC when it comes to small children and reptiles, but gee let's go to the other exetreme and ban all reptiles.

I'd like to propose we ban cars and trucks because I "might" get hit by one as I'm crossing the street some day. How about banning fast food? It might cause my arteries to clog. And the list can go on and on.

No one forces anyone to have a reptile for a pet or hobby. Its all a matter of choice. Period.

Personally, and it pains me to say this, but The Humane Society will never see another dime from me, nor will I attend any of their sponsored events. What can I say? Its my choice.
