You use terms like enemy and adversary for two groups that are simply doing their job. First, take the news. Their job is to bring viewers. Do you suggest they not run stories when a child is injured or some dumb-arse gets caught with 60 snakes in his 1 bed-room apartment? Its not like they single snake incidents out...they report on any such event...dog maulings, alligators in bathtubs, tigers in the back yard. Then take your politicians...they too have nothing "against" snake people. What they have is a vested interest in being seen trying to "solve problems". Its how they keep their job. Florida has a genuine ecological disaster on their hands with regard to the feral burmese pythons. Any politician worth his salt is going to want to be seen as part of the solution. How can you blame them?



In short...neither is out to get us...neither is our adversary. Their simply both in it for their own interests. It still comes back to the central issue, which is irresponsible owners.
