Should they make life vests from Kevlar?

From the article it would seem they should look at the shots the
photographer took and see if he has pictures of the guy with the gun aimed
at the boats and not at the ground . That would give them plenty of grounds
to bust the shooter .

People down here kill every snake they see,, they don't even want to
take the time to learn the difference between those that will hurt you
and those that won't, they just say only good snake, is a dead one.

Maybe those folks should be asked if they would rather have an occasional
snake around or if they would rather share their food with alot of rats !!!

Now that looks like it would get the attention of anyone shooting at a
fisherman.

I have always been of the opinion that people that shoot at other
people, when not in self defense, should carry very high fire
insurance!

Just curious, why would you shoot snakes?

Two-legged snakes, Bill. ;-)

A 9mm is a perfectly useful weapon. It will help you fight your way to a
bigger gun. Personally I preferr a Government model .45 ACP.

Rodney, not to turn this thread into a snake discussion, you are highly
mistaken...

1) Puff adders (Bitis arietans) do not occur in the United States, only in
Africa, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Lebanon, Israel, and Jordan (thank God).

2) Puff adders are highly poisonous. Its venom is strongly hemotoxic,
destroying bloods cells and causing extensive tissue damage.

Check that Peterson Field Guide to see the snake you are speaking of, snake
id's are not to be taken lightly...

Having had a 5 foot cotton mouth come in my boat, the answer is simple,
to protect my life,, but every snake in the water is not a cotton mouth,
and every snake is not a threat to you.

Last weekend we were cleaning up around our lake house when my nephew
yelled snake, and ran to his truck for a gun,, I came around the house
to see a perfectly harmless puff adder about 18 inches long, everyone
was yelling for the nephew to shoot the snake, and I said no,, and
showed them how well these little guys will play dead for them, even
with their tongues hanging out of the mouth, not moving, I would flip
him back on his belly,, he would roll back on his back and flop that
tongue out, then totally motionless. I showed them how harmless he was,
and how they had scared him to death,, there was no need in shooting
him, as he was already dead,, everyone laughed, and they then left him
alone. Perhaps I saved another harmless snake.

People down here kill every snake they see,, they don't even want to
take the time to learn the difference between those that will hurt you
and those that won't, they just say only good snake, is a dead one.

MSRP...in the 800+ dollar range

No I'm not,,, again :-)

Heterodon platyrhinos, Eastern Hognose, also known as the "The American
Puff Adder" (don't believe me ? do a search on the name)

Since it was quite clear I was not in the middle east, there could be no
mistakes made of finding the other one

Check that Peterson Field Guide to see the snake you are speaking of, snake
id's are not to be taken lightly...

I own that book as well as i/2 a dozen other reptile field manuals, down
here the Eastern Hognose is always called a puff adder, due to it
puffing it's self up to look meaner than it is, if this fails, then he
plays dead. About as harmless as a chicken snake,, oh I'm sorry,, a Gray
Rat Snake to you guys :-), we call them chicken snakes down here because
they are always getting in the hen house after rats

I Have spent many years afield, and I have caught many snakes, non
poisonous as well as poisonous ones, I know my reptiles, and I never
take them lightly
