Opencongress.org ( Python ban link )

Opencongress.org ( Python ban link )

Here is link to vote against the Python bill S.373: A bill to amend title 18, United States Code, to include constrictor snakes of the species Python genera... OpenCongress
Just register and place your vote opposing this bill. Make sure you are logged in on the page before you vote. You username should be in the upper right hand corner when you vote. We should be able to get this opposed count in the thousands if not more. When I placed my vote it was only 22 opposed it then.

Take care
Tom

America does not go abroad in search of monsters to destroy. She is the well-wisher to the freedom and independence of all. She well knows that by enlisting under other banners than her own, were they even the banners of foreign independence, she would involve herself beyond the power of extrication in all the wars of interest and intrigue, of individual avarice, envy and ambition, which assume the colors and usurp the standards of freedom. – John Quincy Adams (1821)

Re: Opencongress.org ( Python ban link )

Come on people, this is disappointing!! There are only 90 opposed to this as of Saturday 12/05/09 at 12:08 pm. CST??? There are thousands of us, and it only takes a few minutes to do this.

This link is posted on several forums and it's pathetic that only 90 votes oppose it as of now. Everyone has posted how they don't want to lose there boas and pythons. This is your chance to stand up and really do something, and not just take a backseat. This can't be any easier, please just take the time to click a few clicks and do it.

Take care
Tom
