If its illegal already, why are they banning it? Is this just some "feel good, look at me, I'm doing something" bill, or am I missing something here?
They will make it double illegal!
It’s a junk bill, they are saying that the old pianos with ivory keys can’t be bought or sold anymore (or at least not without special permission from the state, which means inspections, documentation, permits, etc). They need to let us dispose of our lawfully obtained property as we wish, and leave us the heck alone.
Putting Botswana out of business. They actually harvest ivory from living elephants to prevent poaching. (not to mention some limited culling of elephants)
