Well I said more then my two cents so ill leave it at that. Glad he got caught, convicted, and he should pay the price so our hobby can continue. Hopefully we can continue to learn, keep, culture, trade, and love our endangered species and who knows one day we could be repenishing the ocean if continuing global warming and greenhouse gasses make some of these species extinct in the wild.

Thank you both for clarifying. It is admitted that we were incorrect about the circumstances of the convictions. Regardless my concern was with his involvement in the hobby and him breaking the law, not what his specific charge was.

I wanted to bring attention to something that should concern us all. My intent was to help inform and support the hobby.

Another point about which I won't speculate too much....What we have heard about here was one set of circumstances where he was investigated and caught and prosecuted. When most criminals are caught,...it is not their first time at bat. I would not be shocked to find out he has committed other acts that he was not caught at.

Actually this was only intended to be a small post to bring attention to the issue.
It was all of the small people with nothing better to do than flap their lips who turned it into a big deal.

By all means please continue.

'(some peggers) are spending lots of bandwidth telling us what an evil doer he is.'???

Who the heck would you expect to speak out against this, people from Norway? It happened in our city, our community. Stands to reason we would have a voice about it. Any responsible fish-keeper should.

If you guys think it's not a big deal,...then shut your pie holes and the thread will go away. It's only still active because of all the jerks condoning his actions.

Those last comments are really nice.

If one of the other staff members wish this thread open, they can reopen it.
