    Just what we need right now, people letting even more snakes go, but now in different places. Let's hope the PETA/government won't take any ridiculous actions now and ban anything else. Really pathetic and irresponsible owners...

    Great, another act of irresponsibility!

    The comments on these articles can be really off the wall though, something about this one caught my eye...

    Another reason I cannot stand NYC. It is a hellhole, peopled to the max, and now snakes? What's next? Glow in the dark sewer crocs?

    All the comments on that article really irritate me... And if the one poster is right that these snakes belonged to a guy that was on the street showing them, how does the author know that he wasn't just letting them take a swim?

    Seems more like a stunt some propaganda pushing punks would pull just to make it easier to pass new legislation against the reptile community.

    Those snakes were almost certainly pets and were probably pretty tame. Someone should have just snatched them up. :/
