I saw it and laughed my butt off. The two guys (joy riding)flying around in there antenna equipped plane, the three loaded kayaks (vacationing) cruising the mangroves, the college students (seeking free education)dumping snakes in fresh water and salt water (as if they are doing some scientific discovery)and the pythons expanding northward, where no one knows who's door they will show up at, (which is why I didn't answer the doorbell last night) even though it was 26 degrees outside! And then all of this at tax payers expense!! Tom, it reminded you of the "Killer Tomatoes"...I was stuck with either "The Blob" or "Willard", the killer rats!!!

Does anyone remember "Operation Rock Cut" that was in Times Magazine a few years ago...where every fact was deleted and a bunch of BS was spread throught this "News" Magazine?

Folks, unfortunaley, the big picture is ALL OF THE NEWS we are getting today is as biased as that documentary. You only see it there because you are aware of the real facts. That is why this bill to ban the pythons is going to pass...it has NOTHING to do with facts, but about future revenues for the goverment. Like I told the person who was scolding me for keeping snakes, how she hated that and finally they were going to put a stop to it. I just smiled and said "yes..they are..but you know what...its going to cost YOU because you will have to pay for it in your taxes." The smile on her face disappeared as she thought about that one!!!
