" What is absurd is bringing up the scenario of someone's pet cobra escaping and biting an innocent bystander and killing them. It's certainly possible it's just not probable. "

I have a pit/boxer mix and I do everything I can to protect innocent bystanders (who are beyond my no-trespass) from being killed by her. She's well trained and socialized with animals and people alike. But if you come up to my door and open it, you will be attacked. Not just bitten but viciously attacked. It's my right to do this, and inside her house I believe it to be HER right. She has bitten people before... kind of hectic... but I just point at the signs. No-Trespassing & beware of DOG!!! Do a lot of people think this should be illegal? Ya, I know the cities around me ALREADY HAVE HER BREED BANNED COMPLETELY, she is a boxer-mix when she goes to the vet. The only place I have lived in this state where APB's are legal in a city is Lawrence.

Ok, so as to Stephs quote, scenarios are fun. Likely the cobra didn't even get outside anywhere and it's actually the handlers family who is in trouble. (i'm starting to think you all live alone lol) Laws are made to protect people from themselves too.
