I posted yesterday and my post got pulled for some reason, so I'll be *extra* careful to not offend here. The problem isn't the media. Its not politicians. They're both responding appropriately considering the fact that they don't know any better. The one, and only reason this is an issue now is terrible, ignorant owners. Period.



If toddlers and other people weren't routinely being hurt....if the everglades weren't literally crawling with burmese pythons, and if people weren't repeatedly being caught housing large numbers of snakes in areas where they're not permitted...well, there would be no issue at all.
