    So python strangles two kids and now all snake owners are getting blamed...

    The strangest thing is.. i heard this from someone who has nothing to do with snake community at all, and i feel like this is the last thing we need going on with everything that's happening already

    I'll reserve judgement until the authorities complete their investigation.

    Re: News: 2 die in Boa Attack

    My theory is that the python was out cruising in the night and was just heavy enough that when it crawled on top of the boys, it might have accidentally suffocated them. A simialar case happened when an African rock python crawled into a toddler's crib and was just laying on top of them; not attacking them.
    Of course, python = scary snake so let's smear it all over the news WITHIN HOURS of the first report before any autopsy.

    I hate the other irrelevant notes on the bottom of the USA today page; saying they're everywhere in Florida and that AfRocks are all out vicious. Sounds like an HSUS grunt.

    Ulgh...poor little boys. My heart goes out to their parents. But there has to be more to this. I can't help but wonder if something far more intelligent strangled these boys, and is using the snake as a skapegoat.

    Certainly wouldn't be the first time that's happened.

    So python strangles two kids and now all snake owners are getting blamed...

    First report was a boa... Next it was a python they corrected that statement that it was correct but wrong it was "an anaconda a type of python" ... Actual snake was an African Rock Python based on the last news report that went out. I really believe this entire thing is a fraud and a framed snake... Things do not add up at all.

    1) kids didnt scream?
    2) second kid waited around to die?
    3) umm you could get a report from the pet store but not an ID initially, really?

    That's just to start...

    Then again, this was in Canada... Eh?
