    Snakes in Compton???

    You want to talk about conspiracy? I find it kind of wierd that somebody left a box of snakes on the corner! It seems like since the government has been trying to pass legislation on snakes we have been seeing a lot more stories.

    Never mind I found it lol.

    People dumping snakes in LA isn't all that uncommon, granted I haven't heard of them being dumped in heavily populated areas.

    Gomez said they weren't sure if the snake was a boa constrictor or python, but because it wasn't poisonous, neither the Compton sheriff's station nor the county's Department of Animal Care and Control would come get the snake right away.
    So I'm guessing that neither the sheriff's dept nor animal control will come get any snake, seeing as how poisonous snakes fail to exist. Nothing like the ignorant media to feed hype and hysteria into an ignorant population.

    It kinda funny too. If you search other media sources, some have pics of burms and some have pics of boas.
