Big men with bigger egos and logical fallacies abound
Logical fallacies? I'm talking real world a-hole. 14 years ago I brought my wife's nephew and his 10 year old son to my deer lease. His son was hit in the leg by a copperhead. I wish I still had the pics of that boys leg. They had to make incisions in his leg to relieve the pressure from the swelling. He suffered for weeks with that leg. If one of the other hunters had told us he saw a copperhead and let it live, he would have been run off the lease by the guys that also brought young hunters to the woods. Regardless of whether or not we thought it could have been the same snake or not. I felt so bad it ruined my entire hunting season. The only fallacy here is that you think you're a "big man" for defending a venomous snake. Real men will understand this concept.

To the posters saying killing snakes for no reason and to the others saying at least rattlers alert you before striking unlike cottonmouths..
Last week I watched a Louisiana outdoor show featuring Captain Eric Dumas. Apparently he also is a licensed nuisance animal remover. While out at the old 6 flags in NO changing rattlers he commented that rattle snakes around here no longer rattle as an alert. He states with the increase hog population rattle snakes are rattling less or not at all when alerted to something nearby. Hogs apparently love snakes and snakes have started to adapt to avoid being prey to hogs.
