Pet Trade Industry/Oppose HR669

Oh poor pitiful me, I will loose my business and my Job if HR669 is passed...oh booohooooo.
As I am reading all the reasons Americans hide behind concerning HR669, I become ill.
Careless statements such as "we have been keeping many non native animals as pets here in America that have had no impact".
How about the millions of Cats and Dogs slaughtered each year?
How about the thousands and thousands of Parrots that now thrive in the wild?
How about all the power outages from nests being built on power poles?
How about all the exploitations being done on the Exotic animals at the hands of Americans?

Its all about money...hey...I hear MacDonalds is hiring a french fry guy/gal!
The very same factory that makes bird seed can convert to making canned dog food and keep everyone working...hey...all the companion animals that are slaughter simply because they are no longer wanted can be used to grind up and make dog and cat food.

How about all the boas and other non native animals that are found in the wild in Florida, whats it going to take a baby being ate whole before thy eye's are opened?

But...But...that would be sad if it did happen...but as long as it wasn't your child...RIGHT?

Oh, but if HR669 was passed many people would loose there jobs...one day the oil will run out, what will happen to the truck driver that used to haul Gas to the pumps, do ya think he will say "Oh poor pitiful me and roll over and die?", or do ya think he will find something else to pull behind his rig?....maybe all the dead (no longer wanted Dogs and Cats)....hauled off to the rendering plant?

Why do people keep exotic Geckos?....ya surely can't teach them to roll over and sit up and beg?
How about Exotic Snakes?....hmmm wonder what tricks they can do...oh I forgot...its off to the pet shop to buy a cheap Parakeet or maybe a rat to feed my snake....I get all excited when watching them kill there pray....

Americans thrived on the killings of Dogs and Cats way before exotics were added to the pet list.

What about the millions of NATIVE song birds that are killed each year to support the stray and wild cats here in America....the NON NATIVE FELINE....

Why are our NATIVE PREDATORS such as Hawks, Eagles, Owls, Falcons now starving due to the lack of PREY...?????

Our Nations symbol starving in his/her own homeland....

And you Americans fighting HR669....come up with just about every false reason to cloud the issue.....

What planet do you folks live on anyways?
