I caught a Lionfish yesterday/Florida Keys

Well done! Unfortunately, I think Ruiz is quite right in this situation. But, you also have to look at it from the perspective of if you don't do anything then things certainly aren't going to change.

I was in Grand Cayman back in June and saw more than one on each dive. They are actually educating the general public about them on the island and many dive ops will kill them on site.
 
They have begun eating them in the Bahamas. They also have many spear fishing tournaments for Lionfish only. I thin kthey killed over 900 the last event
