Hi, it seems I see this ad several places, first off I live in Indiana and quite familiar with this accident. One I raise Retics for pets and not to knock other speices but except for size retics make a good pet. Just like amanda in W.V no one came forward to tell the whole story. I was to purchase Diablo 2 days prior. Both cases, no one tells how thier snake was sick and were tryining to force antibiadics down their throat. How many people reading this would like some one to force they mouth open and shove items down theirs? People have a voice and arms to defend themselves. A snake has none of these. Yet this ad condems this snake and others like it. Yes it is tragic but and accident that could of been avoided. Their animals were sick and both knew better than to do this by theirself. Amanda never mentioned hers was sick and other than parents of this victim I bet no one knew this either. If some one is offended by my remark, look at the whole picture and put yourself in the snakes place, it reacted in defense as you or I would. I would like ads and remarks like this one kept off forums for the fact of how they blow everything out of proportion and truth. It doesn't help when a young person wanting to own a pet sees this article.
