I can understand the frustration that you feel. I have a few friends that are horrified that I have snakes. They love to ask what I would do if one of the snakes ate someone. I just laugh and tell them that I would let the snake digest the meal. lol Then I explain that even the largest ball python could not eat a human, and that their dogs have a better chance to hurt someone than my snakes do. I also have had to tell a few people that if they don't like my snakes that they don't have to come over to my house.
