I agree with you to an extent, and understand where small-mammal lovers are coming from, but in this situation, they killed the snake out of fear and hate. We don't feed mice, rats, and rabbits to our snakes out of fear and hate, we do it out of necessity. Do people kill snakes out of necessity now?
