I agree people are scared of snakes. Tho when I have a pet of any kind I am obligated to look after it to the best of my ability. I often almost everyday take my 9ft 4 carpet python out his large cage so he is able to enjoy the outdoors. Which he has since I recently adopted him. He has gone from a recluse with no interest of anything especially people (wasn't handled for years) to a snake who actually seems to enjoy human contact nowadays. He does have his own personality which did surprise me. I have enjoyed watching him change. I am a responsible pet owner. As such if I was to walk my snake it would be done in a manner that would be respectful to the public. Am most importantly my snake. Peple that don't like him... That's their problem. But I would cross the road for them.
