"calm & unharmful" wont bring ratings & thats why they have to blow everything out of proportion like so. it is why i do not watch the news .
i'm disheartened at the bad publicity snakes get, especially the non-venomous ones. now that some of the kids in my daughter's class know i have a BP a couple of them have said stupid things to her like "i did research & it said ball pythons are dangerous!" she tells me this & i'm like "if ball pythons were dangerous, trust me i wouldnt have one."
whatever.
i dont much care for ignorant people but the ones that are stubbornly close-minded that really piss me off. thats when it stops being ignorance & starts being stupidity. ok rant over. sorry for that guys. i'm not saying the guy that called 911 is bad or whatever & i'm not gonna even look at the article. i understand if they guy was afraid cuz if he didnt own snakes then he probly had no idea what was curled up in his toilet.
but yeah people need to learn how to properly contain their critters.
