We hear about how these animals come into America. I've got another second. I wanted a Kangol dog. They're from Turkey, and they're not allowed to be in America. But I found a place in Texas that sold them. How'd you get them? Well, we dyed them black, and we got them through customs. They turned out to be as bad as they were supposed to

Well, it's like I have the right to swing my fist, But when it gets to your nose, my right stops and your rights take over. All these folks that have testified, you're seeing the gold standard of these people, the ones I've met. This is about public safety, public health, and not everyone is going to operate the same as some of these. And the other thing I want us to be reminded, we didn't deal with terrorist activities and have screenings and do all the things we've done until after 9-11.

hope so. And we had it at $250 per animal when we started, and they came in and successfully lobbied me that that was a little bit out of bounds. And so we rolled it to $200 for the first animal, and I think $20, $25 for this? Oh, just $10? $10. $10 for the second, you know, the second, third, fourth, fifth. And they agreed that that would be reasonable. And that will be just, hopefully, enough money to provide for the registration and the authority

Yes, sir. I mean, if we know that, as I said about raccoons, I mean, that could be a subject you guys discussed in the coming years. If anybody live in the country... We've got a lot of them out of where I live. One last question. I don't think I've
