My dad had an Atticus Finch moment when I was about 12. We had a small vegetable garden in the back yard, about 25 or 30 feet from the house. The kids were running out back to play, when Dad held out his arm and waved us back onto the porch.

He picked up the Daisy BB gun leaning there, pumped it 7 or 8 times, raised it to his shoulder and fired. I didn't see the 4' long copperhead between the corn plants until its skull exploded.
