I didn't say that snakes should be banned over this. In fact, I specifically said that the specific owner of that specific snake should be held responsible and no one else, snake included. Just because I didn't add one more, "This is crap! The snake didn't do it!" to the previous 17 pages of, "This is crap! The snake didn't do it!" that doesn't mean that I don't agree with everything that's been said. I just think that loss of life, especially the lives of children trumps loss of....well, anything else.
It's evident from reports of how he kept his animals and his past problems that this guy owning potentially dangerous animals was an accident waiting to happen. I think it's pretty ridiculous that anyone would look at this case and not be able to see that. Again- I am not advocating for a reptile ban. I'm simply advocating for a little compassion for the two little boys that are dead, regardless of how they died.
