SOAPBOX warning. Woke up this morning and of course the first thing I did after smacking the alarm was to check email, Facebook, and twitter on my blackberry...found this interesting tidbit on Facebook --> Feds considering adding poisonous rattlesnake to endangered species list - HUMAN EVENTS. What's so interesting, you ask? This: I have lived in the Florida panhandle most of my life and eastern diamondback rattlesnakes are par for the course around here. This area is part of their natural habitat and yes, we as human beings have encroached on that natural habitat. But, what this article doesn't tell us is that they aren't scarce around here - not by a long shot. I have to question whether these people have ever actually come into this area to see for themselves... It's nothing to see one crossing the highway in any part of the county or to hear that awful buzzing from their rattles somewhere out in the brush. SO, when these enviro-nazis, as I like to affectionately call them, blather on and on about these snakes being persecuted, yes, persecuted! (their words), I have to wonder what's next on their hit parade... Enough is enough. Time to let these people know that they can't have any more of our liberties, and if it's between me and the snake, tough luck for the snake. Time to get back to worshiping the CREATOR and not the created.
