Burmese pythons in the state of Florida are classified as an invasive species. An invasive is an introduced species to an environment that becomes overpopulated, enabled, and harms its new environment. An introduced species is one which has arrived there by human activity either deliberately or accidentally.
This man-made (induced) problem has disrupted the process of natural selection. Simply stated the harmony of multiple living beings is changed.
Similarly, the government has disrupted our harmony in the last decade as well. That which we took comfort in and lived by is no longer.
Too many white cops killed too many initially thought to be innocent (or were innocent) black citizens. Mostly peaceful riots, looting, burning, assaults, and theft in Minneapolis, St. Louis, Seattle, Oakland, etc. led to cries to defund the police.
Progressive cities, all the while, were decriminalizing previously criminal acts. Even if you are arrested bail has been reduced or eliminated for multiple offenses. Put criminals back on the streets ASAP.
Multiple retailers have now even trained employees to stand down as flash mobs invade the store and clear the floor of merchandise. Downtown San Francisco is now a retail ghost town because of it.
And, city leaders such as newly elected Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson have lectured us that calling the dozens of hoodlums gathered to commit crimes a “mob” is inappropriate. They should be called “large gatherings.” And, pythons should be called competition, perhaps.
Bought and paid-for prosecutors and judges are refusing cases or suspending sentences.
And, the law is so compromised by the new order that it’s walking away rather than being caught in the death squeeze.
Lt. Jessica Taylor, formerly of the Seattle Police Department, retired on Aug. 1. On local Seattle radio she lit up the city like a post George Floyd Minneapolis night. “The toxic mix of the Seattle City Council’s absurdity, the spinelessness of the Mayor, the leniency of the prosecutor’s office, and your failed leadership has accelerated this city’s downhill slide straight to rock bottom,” she opined. “It’s been a free fall into anarchy & chaos.”
Washington DC Councilman Trayon White, Sr. voted for lowering punishment for major crimes like armed theft and carjacking. Now he’s on TV crying that the city has become “a war zone ” and the National Guard should step in. Feed the python, then complain about it coming too close for comfort.
There were 16 homicides in DC in just the first week of August. But, the NAACP sent a travel advisory to black people visiting Florida. When they say something is not about politics, know that it is always about politics. Gin up the base.
In metro New Orleans, the total number of uniformed police fell below 900 for the first time since the 1940s. The city budget calls for 1800. You read that right. Why work for peanuts in a city that needs a circus tent placed over it?
Illegal immigration will only add to a city struggling with rampant crime in a new world order. New York proudly proclaims(or proclaimed) itself as a sanctuary city. That lasted as long as it took for the first bus of illegals to hop out onto Fifth Ave. Now Mayor Eric Adams says that the care needed for the influx of migrants threatens to bankrupt a $9 billion dollar budget.
Pythons are constrictors that coil around their victims and squeeze the life out of their prey. They have no natural enemies in The Everglades.
The government has to pay python hunters a bounty to help control the problem. It’s gotten that bad.
Slither on.
