We continue to allow the media to pull the wool over our eyes and ears....yes there are some who don't take the predetermined bait of a fixed poll but we are in the minority.



It seems like we live in times where the medias word is set in stone....they are not our friends. It is the medias job to sensationalize everything and scare you into "tuning" in, how much better would we all be if the mainstream media was taken in moderation and required to be honest?



I guess for that to happen we would need some kind of government agency for honesty....what the heck am I saying LOL..



I have heard now we have "python hunters" down in the glades, now how could this be...where is peta where is humane society???

How could people kill an innocent animal for no reason other than to make a buck.....oh yeah it is a snake.



Just my opinion but there is a problem specifically in the glades and I do not feel that we will ever eradicate the pythons completely but hunting them may help to control the population. As far as I am concerned the numbers reported are blown way out of proportion anyway.



I had some relatives from Florida over for dinner and it amazed me how misinformed they were and how they were brain washed by the media into believing that there kids and pets were in DANGER! I told my aunt that if she were to let her children and dog run wild in the glades that there would be nothing that could save them pythons or not.



The real DANGER and "snake in the grass" is the power of this media machine and it's completely unchecked ability to report whatever it deems necessary to get the masses to tune in. It is far past time that we the sheeple speak out and remind the media and this government who we are and what we expect!



Sorry for the rant....never mind I am tired of apologizing for how I think and feel!!!!!
