Marcel I think Hustler is referring to the fact that your comment was bordering on being racial....

Serpy what really annoys me is that it's not the first time he makes some smug comment like that.

Nope Rowan, not bordering, but full blown racism. Well, it's up there for good now, and I'm pretty sure quite a few people are going to find comments like that pretty hurtfull. Especially since Marcel represents the next generation, being all of 15 with such insightfull opinions. Not a great way to canvass for members to join his web site I'm afraid.

@snakemanjaid, i tend to agree with you that it is a desperate act for feeding themselfs. Unfortunately not all of mankind has the luxury of a hot cooked meal every day....and desperate hunting methods like these is the only means of surviving. I for one must admit, that dude has balls!

Marcel take into account that like the others have said this was more than likely to feed themselves, in which case I feel that there is nothing wrong with it. Just like people who are members here hunt and fish etc etc.

Marcel that is exactly why you should THINK before you log on to the forum and just start posting rubbish.

Justifying actions will not excuse people from them nor would blaming each other help in any way

This is a matter of personal opinion We all feel differently towards certain actions based on our perspective and forcing our opinions on others wont get us anywhere. Live and Let Live Like leonthemenace said
I my self was repulsed by the scene, In my opinion I think the Killing of the snake could have been far less brutal. to me it looked ritualistic.(But that doesn't give me a right to say they cant do it)

I agree with snakemanjayd even though I love reptiles they are people that do this and all we can do is try and educate them.I guees on the rodent fourms they post videos of snakes eating rodents and they must also be angry.Mybe snake is a delicacy for the people that killed the snake.

It's just part of life.Dont get me wrong I hate seeing reptiles being killed but I was just trying to get the others persons point of view.
