DM07 Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 1 hour ago, Berkshire said: Overreaction? Nobody is saying "kill all the animals I don't like!" But a few dead snakes (or mosquitoes) is not going to change our ecosystem. Too many snakes (read Guam) may destroy an ecosystem. And who brought those particular snakes to Guam? Did they just materialize out of thin air, some sunny morning? There are in fact, eco-systems that can not even have small things change, before the break down! It's you with a "few" snakes and Billy- Bob don't like 'em either, so there's some more killed and before you can say "Cobra Gold", a species is endangered, with rather catastrophic consequences. It is never "just you" and a "few snakes"... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pay some money for the the privilege, to their estate for their beneficiaries. You must be expendable also, then, because sort recognises sort!

Nyezhov Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 I have a former Marine Gunny Sgt buddy. He said the five toughest and nastiest soldiers out there (other than the US marines) were the Royal Marines, the Gurkhas, The Thais Marines, Izzys and the Korean Marines.

crouchpeter Posted February 15, 2019 Share Posted February 15, 2019 Millions of snakes are killed because some ignorant morons think their blood has special properties! The same <deleted> who think rhinoceros horn, bear bile and tiger parts will turn them into macho pricks!

I you dared to call a Marine, whatever nationality, "dumb", they'd probably decapitate you and drink your blood too. Legends in their own minds.
