More bad media for pythons

TheCrimsonGhost Jan 15, 2010 10:00 PM

This story ran in the Detroit Free Press today.

Is it just me, or are they reaching on this one?
It just seems like they are trying to scare people around the country. If you read the comments you can see how many ignorant people live in this state.

Three of the rock pythons found this week were captured, and two got away. One had a circumference of 31 inches.

I say BS. That is a load of crap.
More scare tactics. How is it that anacondas, afrocks, burms, etc are all showing up one right after another instead of being dead from the extreme cold?
I say they are being planted so the media can scare the sheeples.

So how do they think that a hybrid of these two species is going to create a "super snake"? I mean, seriously. I'm speechless!

The media thrives on stories that hurt people. They love to see people cry, die, have miserable existences, and they love drama. If it's not a good story they will make one up for ratings. Remember a few years ago some big time news guys getting into trouble for completely making up news stories?

Nobody really fears 'Supersnakes' but it's great to make people think that. What people should fear most are groups like PETA, HSUS, and the Media. We already know that PETA and HSUS make up stories and lie to get their points across...and the Media...don't even get me going on them. They are my number one pet peeve in this country.

If this snake can fly it will be a big problem.
