I bet you could get a lot of snake-owners and snake-lovers pretty upset with statements like that.
There's even sites about bigots who attack snake-owners, who argue that people shouldn't be allowed to own dangerous snakes, there's a "snakes myth" site. No "leave your hands off my breed" site for them though. Otherwise, it is entirely ironic and hilarious to find an attack on snake-owners in a thread dedicated to attacks on people who attack pit-bull owners.
What's next, condemnation of people who raise alligators?
“I bet you could get a lot of snake-owners and snake-lovers pretty upset with statements like that.”
I seem to recall a thread about that. Some fool wasted a perfectly
good snake in his back yard last year. Boy, some folks sure gave him hell over it.

The snake comment was my goofing around. If one crossed my path I’d be in the next county faster than I could shoot it.
I admit that they’re useful ... far away from where I live.
;)
AND I admit.....!!!!.... this fear is due to my not being exposed to them.
I would NEVER deny anyone the right to own one!!!
