This snake was called a threat to the community as dangerous wildlife?

I don't know about you, but I'm much more scared of gun hoarding maniacs who are legally allowed to stockpile AK-47s and machine guns. Or dogs that are trained to kill and then left to run about the neighborhood unleashed by equally irresponsible owners.

I agree that this guy was a Grade-A idiot, but sheesh, of all thing things that I can think of that are real (everyday, realistic) "threats to the community" I don't think a snake should be near the top of the list. The guy was walking down the road with it, not enticing preschoolers into the back of his van for feeding day. He should be charged with a public display of stupidity.

I hope the snake is okay.
