A member is on TV! (Intervention)
Just watched that show last night. Its crazy how animal planet makes people who have reptiles look crazy. Its a shame how these shows have such uneducated facts on reptiles. And if someone owns more then one snake we are animal hoarders. One show said ball pythons were a danger. These idiotic shows are why all our exotic pets we love and care for will be slowly taken away from us. I agree that the guy had no clue how to handle his hot snakes but all his other snakes looked pretty well cared for. Some owners give all of us reptile owners bad reputations.

Ugh I really wish we could sacrifice some of the suck-people today to bring Steve Irwin back and have him make Animal Planet what it should be again. Would anyone really mind if Snooki or Nicki Minaj were gone and Steve was back?? If more are needed there's plenty of suck-people.

You mean, like you're doing? Nah, no hypocrites here.
I didn't jump on anyone. Good lord, you make it sound like people are screaming for his head. Come down off that lofty perch and have a nice big drink of this - it's called harsh reality. It boggles my mind that anyone would lack the common sense and allow themselves to be filmed for any tv show that focuses on snakes. When has it ever been fair? When in the last few years has it ever been positive? Who has their head that far into the sand, or that far up their hind end? Was it really the tv station's fault for spinning something we all know they'll spin, or the fault of the person who allowed it to happen? Staged scenarios or not, that is the sort of stuff they're using as ammo against us, and he sure gave it to them willingly.

I'm certain the point was not to defend silly actions, but rather pointing out that it's importany not to jduge without knowing the full story, or without actually knowing who this person was. The post was a reminder to think before you speak.
We should also be careful about throwing around associations without any confirmation to back it up. This is how bad rumors get spread about people that were never involved.
