    A little snake that's very aggressive (by nature), more agile in the water (and on land) than I am in full gear, and a bite than can really mess your day up? Yes, I believe that qualifies you for extermination. Having been chased by a pair of them as a kid, I do not place them in the 'cute n' cuddly' category.

    Thats the key. Unless you've grown up around them you feel bad for them. They're one of the few snakes that will chase you and your peta down.

    It's bad luck to be superstitious.

    That chick in the show video must be some hippie from up north, cause if she grew up in Lousiana, then she'd agree those little bastards will chase you.

    When was the last time you got bit?

    I see that as being similar to asking me when the first time I drowned was, I don't need to experience either

    On edit, I have never been successfully bitten by a venomous snake, but that was because of the snake proof leggings I was wearing. I have been unsuccessfully bitten a couple of times, both I never saw the snake, so I can't imagine what I did to provoke it, there than walk by.

    So you've never been bitten by a water moccasin.

    Never been shot either, don't understand your point.
    Yes I have bitten by a Cotton mouth, just not successfully. It was not the snakes fault though as he struck several times. Yes it scared the stew out of me. In the Coolawahee swamp if I have the spelling correct, right behind my house.
