People who kill for sport are pussies

That's what they said about buffalo too and we nearly killed off the species.
I don't really care if these folks want to keep their local tradition alive, but people who kill any snake they see just because, or out of fear, are weird, giant pussies. Its open season on venomous snakes on my property because I have kids and dogs. But if they aren't venomous, I'll just move them if they're near the house or let them pass if they aren't.

I actually don't mind snakes. They kill what I really hate, which is rats. They should change it to a rat roundup or maybe a pit bull roundup.

Gotta kill 88 water snakes to get 22 cottonmouths? I’m perfectly ok with that.

22 dead Cottonmouths sounds like progress to me.

Shite, you fooled me. I pledged with a dude from LP that said he was the most famous person from those parts. He was an ag pilot later and a certified nut case.

Anyone who is scared of a snake is a pussy

Why can't these dumb shits do this with House Sparrows and European Starlings? If I were a billionaire I would pay $5 per House Sparrow and $2 per European Starling. Year 'round.

Snakes are hugely beneficial to humans, they are badass animals and beautiful.
There is zero reason to kill one.
If you are afraid of them you are an ignorant childish fool.

Lake Providence as a lake is fine. Every part outside that picture won’t inspire you to buy property there.

I don't kill them as a general rule. I wouldn't say there is zero reason to kill one, though.
A few years back a friend and I were walking with his 4 year old daughter through his pasture. She was to his right, and I was to his left. She was looking at the cows off in the distance, but luckily he was watching the ground. All of a sudden, he grabbed her by the shirt and pulled her behind him. She was about two steps from a baby rattler that was coiled. The walking stick he had ended the rattler, but if he hadn't been paying attention, it very likely could have ended her.
A month or so later he came up on a chicken snake nosing around the backside of his chicken coop/goat lot. He got a hoe and some picker-upper tongs and got the big sucker into a plastic tote he had in the back of his side-by-side. He took it back to his house and showed it to his little girl. He told her what it was and why he didn't kill it. Hell, she wanted to keep it for a pet! He put it in the bed of his truck, told her to get in, and they took it to a friend's barn where they had rat troubles and turned it loose. He had to take her back from time to time to, "try to find Sammy".
He turned both instances into learning experiences. He taught his girl about snakes and explained why he killed one and not the other. The rattler was a threat and it was close to their house and where they regularly had to be. The chicken snake wasn't a threat to them, he explained.
