HR669 Please Read Animal Lovers! + VIDEO

Hi everyone. I wish I had something better to talk about, however, I don't.

Some of you may have heard, but I am sure most of you haven't, about the new bill that may be passed "HR669".
If this bill gets passed, you can kiss your exotic animals goodbye, you'll probably only have cats and dogs left.
This is incredibly displeasing news to me. As 5 out of 6 of my pets are exotics. I would really like them to stay, as opposed to them being taken away, obviously.
It's a bill that is trying to ban all exotic and non-native animals as pets.
Examples include but are not limited to: Ferrets, Hamsters, Rats, Beta Fish, Geckos, Snakes, Frogs, Chinchillas, Sugar Gliders, Birds and so on and so forth.
Now, I understand why they are doing this, but I think they're not thinking this through fully.
I am in full support of bans on keeping wild animals as pets.
Examples include, but are not limited to: Wolves, Tigers, Alligators, Chimps and other Primates, Venomous or XL Snakes.
These are wild animals and SHOULD NOT BE PETS.
Trust me, I know it sucks. You won't meet another person who would love to have a wolf as much as me, but it's not right or safe. It's common sense.
How can you help?
Spread the word around!
Call your congress peeps. [But for the love of God, do it in a CIVIL MANNER. Hell, I wouldn't want to be called and yelled at either, so if you call them, talk to them civilly.]
Sorry this journal was rushed, but I really just want to spread the word across. If you care about these animals, I suggest you do the same.
We must protect our exotics.
