And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
The Mojave is the most venomous and fastest. Wait, there's more. It is also not as reclusive as the others. It has shown that it will attack even when no longer threatened. And I think it has been found as far east as east TX although don't quote me on that.
It's also a big 'un, and tastes like chikin. Used to hunt them in the Anza Borrego dessert. When you got one, it was wise to sit still, as the mate was soon to come.
When I was running the family ranch I wouldn't step outside without the Model 28, first two chambers loaded with .38 Special snake shot. Then after I gave it up my cousin found one IN the house. Glad I retired when I did. -Elmo
I will not go to Arizona.

DO they still make the Snakecharmer?
DeleteThe most deadly snakes in AZ moved there from CA in recent years.
ReplyDeleteThose in charge of elections should be included IMO.
DeleteWhy 12g? a .410 side by side does the trick for most things, and is easier to carry, and doesn't bash your shoulder!
ReplyDeleteNever seen the point in anything less.
