    Yeah, I know. They are a pain in the butt. But they pay the bills to keep my server running. Just a fact of life, I am afraid.

    Want to get rid of them? Simple. Just become a Contributor level member or above and they will be gone. -> Please click HERE."

    Is that too much for me to ask of you to keep this site running? Well, sorry about that. I too wish I could get everything for free. But alas.....

    Addendum: 01/10/2026
    =====================


    Google Adsense ad revenue for December, 2025 was just $30 over the cost of the lease for the server running this site. So, in effect, the money providing the incentive for me to continue running this site is coming SOLELY from the paid memberships and sponsorships here. Which honestly ain't much....

Chad Lendon - INFO

Chad's not stupid and, when it comes to things that aren't subjective, he's usually not wrong. Add an element of opinion to an issue though and all bets are off, anything he says has to be filtered through his personality to find anything useful at the bottom of it.

That being said... it's usually worth the shoveljob to find out what he was trying to say, even if it ends up being disagreeable when the real meat is reached. Another in a long, long line of "Sure, he's an ass but if you can ignore that he's usually worth the effort." kind of guys... not unlike how Wes has been categorized in the past (Hell, me too).

The only question I have here is about the motivation for his posts. If it's just Chad not liking someone, then it's a monumental waste of time. If he's got some kind of hard information that he just wants everyone to jump through hoops for and shower him with praise for uncovering, then it *might* be worth the patience needed in dealing with him. Don't look at me for it though, when he gets this wound up over a subject and has an audience it takes hours of attention and effort.
 
Richie...You are correct when you state "You saying you FEEL does not make it FACT." This is why I am always sure to include the part about me "feeling it", because I don't want anyone mistaking my personal opinion with fact...However I do believe that I have the resources to scrounge up some population density studies that may be applicable in this instance. If it's really worth it to anyone, I'll spend some time looking. You are also correct when you state that I am mad because they are closing the road. I'm glad that someone finally acknowledged this instead of just shrugging it off as being mad for someone else...

Richie I have literally spent the past four days writing ALL 31 legislaters by email and I've even written three typed snail-mailed letters to various senators including my own. I have taken a very active stance in stopping this law. It is worded at this point to include all wildlife regardless of whether or not a gun is used...I am truly hopeful that enough herpers will organize (we've done a pretty good job of it so far) to change the general nature of the wording in the act. Addionally Richie, I came here to chastise Justin because of his unethical activity and because it has finally effected me.

I believe that we have reached a point where greed will not be accepted when it's at the expense of the wildlife we love. This is why I've launched this small campaign. It's about more than Justin...I feel that even though a vocal minority has risen against me in this thread, anyone who is actually objective and nuetral will see my points and hopefully that will inspire them to cease any business relationships with folks who commercially collect.

Seamus...I think that your description of me was fair. Unfortunately I act on emotion at times and this is not the way an intelligent person should act...But oh well. We all have our vices...

I am not good at politics and I don't work well with euphamisms, but I truly care about the herps that I love...Not to sound too idealistic, but I'd like it if we'd stop thinking about ourselves and think about future generations. Herps are a renewable resource so we can collect them in moderation, but if people are unfairly and greedily exploiting them...We may not be able to enjoy them in the same sense we do now. :)
 
Just got an email back from a friend..Chad did you know what you doing could be considered criminal harrassement in fact it could be a felony. Contacting law enforcement to purpousfully lie and harm a person and/or buisness by giving false or inaccurate information is a felony in this state and yours too. Repeativly using this forum , and the nature of these post the fact you proven you have motive is a continuation of that harrassment and may not be protected by free speech. I am no lawyer but guess what you wanted to start some shit , you got it..Someone get me this guys address..Monday I am going to pay 100 to a cheap attorney and have him give a call to our District Attorney and to contact TPW and get a copy of any accusation you have made. To do this is only going to cost 100.00. Bro you ain't the 1st person I had to shut someone down for harrassemnt you need to Go look at the Dan Felice Thread...I had the sherrif office at his house the next day and if I have my way...you will too.
So come out with all the info you have you better make your case because I just may make example out of you..and trust me punk I have the funds and time to drain you..do you have the funds to fight me...Kansas City is just a few hours away, easily within driving distance.
I want this guys address...
 
Justin, I invite any legal action that you wish to take. You're attempts to intimidate me with threats of personal violence and paper thin threats of legal action have failed. Do your worst. :)
 
Justin, I invite any legal action that you wish to take.
Great post you address..

threats of personal violence
I'm not going to beat you up, never even hinted at it, but maybe file a lawsuit in your own state..

Now that we have an understanding please post your address and we will see where this goes..Never the less I will get your address eventually.

UNLESS YOUR SCARED OF WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN

I am not going to sit by and let you lie to law enforcement agents about me and let you try to start crap..this is my livelyhood you are attacking and I am going defend myself.. This is the beggining of breeding season and I will have plent of cold hard cash to play with in the next couple months..It would be nice to have your head mounted as a trophy and a warning to any other stoned idiot who wants to pull mindless bullshit like this..
The gloves are off..better put your money where your mouth is bro..Because I certainly am..
TTYL

I will be on here monday to post what I know, and what action I may take..you are a complete and utter moron , a liar and a hippocrite.
[
 
Justin, you may want to reconsider the mounted head thing. Unless you collect oddities and atrocities. chadwicke is even uglier than I am.
 
and chaddy if I do get a judement I am going to sell the rights to it to the stinkiest , dirtiest collection agency I can find... u don't pay ..by by credit
this ain't about $$$..this is about principle
 
Justin...As an individual who is interested in law, I took it upon myself to research your claims...According to KS Law under Chapter 21., PART II.--PROHIBITED CONDUCT,Article 34...Harassment is defined as the following...

""Harassment" means a knowing and intentional course of conduct directed at a specific person that seriously alarms, annoys, torments or terrorizes the person, and that serves no legitimate purpose."

In law, folks refer back to old cases in which they can glean knowledge that can be appliccable to the currect case. This is known in latin as "Stare Decisis" and it's a fundemental part of practicing law. Well, after doing a bit of research on previous cases of online harassment in KS...I discovered that "legitimate purpose" can be defined in such a way as to include my purpose of creating this post...Which was to make the public aware of your unethical activites. Because the matter of ethics is so subjective, it wouldn't be hard to plead a case in my defense.

While I was at it, I took the initiative to look up a few things on threats and harassment...Here's what I found under Kansas law...

"Credible threat" means a verbal or written threat, including that which is communicated via electronic means, or a threat implied by a pattern of conduct or a combination of verbal or written statements and conduct made with the intent and the apparent ability to carry out the threat so as to cause the person who is the target of the threat to reasonably fear for such person's safety. The present incarceration of a person making the threat shall not be a bar to prosecution under this section."

So under that definition, this would be considered a threat...

"bitched to wildlife etc man I should sell a 1500.00 snake and have you hammered"

Especially given the information that you provided about your violent history. I don't know you at all and I take threats like that very seriously.


It's a bit silly for you to take this to that level, but if you want to waste your time and money pursuing something that is ultimately going to fail, by all means. :)

Umm look at your posts again.
You were posting something you FEEL as Fact.

So basically you called law enforcement because of something you FEEL.
You posted to that thread and dug up something that was five years old because of something you FEEL. All because it finally affected YOU.

If you are doing all this because of your concern for the animals.... then yeah...go for it.

but if you are doing all this only because "it has finally affected you". then that is not really much better than the greed
 
you have no clue what your talking about..My lawyer does..I will take his opinion over yours anyday..

"It's a bit silly for you to take this to that level, but if you want to waste your time and money pursuing something that is ultimately going to fail, by all means. "

you see you miss the point..it's not going to fail because you will either have to pay for representation or you will loose...I am betting that i can get justice better this way..I don't have to win...I can do something better I can make you PAY and that is my goal...
you see I can go collect collared and sell them and call it the Collard lizard legal fund..that would be so ironic
Post your address and lets see what happens..
 
also keep in mind I will be asking for criminal charges be brought up against you..and I am not going to ask the District Attorney myself, a lawyer is and I will authorize as much money to be used to get this done
I have 60k sitting in breeding bins ready to produce another 50-75k in the next 3 months...do you really think a few k is going to bother me..
 
It's a combination of the two Rich.

Justin...Go ahead and search around for my report to TPWD, you won't find it. The truth is that I have not contacted TPWD because a buddy of mine brought forth a decent argument to your defense. Go try to retrieve any info that I have given TPWD, you will fail. You can consider it my objective nature that stopped me from pursuing it as I stated...So you can get your panties out of a bunch. The truth is that you probably could try to get me for harassment, you'd definately fail and I've already confirmed this with my family lawyer (who isn't cheap at all like yours, lol). My family conducts hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of business a year so we have him on retainer. I didn't really have to clue you in to the fact that I haven't really contacted the authorities because I could easily mount a defense with little work on my part...But I think you've worried enough.

I've read through the thread a bit more and I believe that if what you say is true regarding your collection practices (not collecting 50-70 male Collared Lizards from a single population, but instead collecting them from a wide area), I can digress a bit. But I still have a serious personal problem with your proffitting from these animals.

So there you go, I've given you what you want. I got what I want from this thread, so I'm pleased. Anything further will just be an annoyance.

buc buc buckawww I'm a skeered little chicken now buc buc buc I opened my big damn mouth one time too many buc buckaw now I've done it for real buc buc buc I'll tell a few more lies and no one will take me seriously buc buc bucawwww

Way to go chadwicke.
 
If either of you are going the legal route, zip it and follow through. Trying to scare each other is quite childish.
 
you know what the difference between you and me...you are a liar and lie to achieve your goals.. I achieve my goals through honesty , hardwork etc..
bro you not off the hook..you have actually probably made thing worse by admitting you never did any of this and use this as harrassemsnt.
Again I will be following through and I have decided I may be able to get Courtney as well, I will see if I can file one suit on two parties since you two are both involved..I know he was struggling last year finacially...
It's good to know you have a lawyer on retainer..meaning he was paid..now here's an old scheme...use a cheap lawyer to tie up the expensive one..I bet I can make that retainer disappear quite easily, how would your family like to have to shell out another expensive retainer.. my guy can do this for 350.00..your will probably cost you that an hour.. How many hours would go into this perhaps 10 or 20.. how much will I spend..as much as I spend on feeding my animals for a month..
Like I said I don't have to win..to win.
I do like your psuedo appology..I love it when people crawlfish
LOLOLOLOLL
 
Post your address... if your not worried..prove it..If I come up there and beat you up you have a felony on me and I am out of the picture right..so don't worry about that I am past that kind of behavior.
I am offering a 100.00 reward for this guys real address..the reward will be paid for in snakes this up comming breeding season..your choice killer hogs, corns..collared lizards..LOL I will make it generous..
