How could it be stealing from Florida citizens when all the states history belongs to everyone who lives on this enitre Earth also in all the states combined, Its very contradictive. I can see not ruining lands by digging, BUT by leaving them there they are not getting discovred or seen by anyone either. The Paleos, Archeo's, and other scientists do not have enough funding in the world to collect everything that is out there and it gets destroyed slowly over time and ruined before ever seen. So in a world of recession and children starving, why can't Amateurs help preserve by collecting and reporting it and get help with their find to be able to , share, and educate our fellow human beings. You can't give them away because they are mush too beautiful. If they are in a Museum, people are charged to see the special exhibits anyway thats why the scientist dig for them themselves and the artifacts are sold by the musem eventually anyway to fund their own bills even though they are eligable for grants being non-profit organizations. Everyone sould be able to enjoy, trade sell, show, share, enjoy, be happy. Not fight over our remnents of ALL our history in all states. Land is one big piece of land, one big past history, we are the ones who have separated it and now fight over everything in it.
