Those laws apply to anybody sending plant material. Think of it this way: if you go into Nevada and stop at an agricultural check point in your way back into California and the inspectors want to look into your ice chest, do you think they'll back off if you tell them you're not a nursery? How did we get citrus greening disease into California? Some backyard grower obtained scionwood from an individual (not operating a nursery, apparently) who had smuggled it into the U.S. That's why states pass laws on plant material inspection requirements that apply to everyone.

I'm not telling anyone what to do and not reporting anyone, but I do want people to know what the laws and risks are.
