Should we ban large snakes?

Hey guys!

Some of you may have already heard that there has been a proposal to ban large, constrictor snakes in Forsyth County. Here is a link to the most recent article in the Winston-Salem Journal:

Chad Griffin, head of the reptile rescue that I consulted before releasing our turtles (see the blog post on that here Turtle Post), is quoted in the article giving his point of view.

There has been discussion of a Federal ban on taking snakes across state borders (federal ban) after the problems in the Everglades we've discussed in class. 

What do you think?

Should Forsyth County ban specific types of snakes? Why or why not? Back up your answer with text from one or more of the linked articles. Write your answer in a complete, detailed paragraph to turn in, in class.
