Who Needs Children When You Have 13 Snakes?

This Lebanese couple of snake enthusiasts lives with 13 free-roaming snakes in a two-bedroom apartment. Pierre and Sapna Rizk adopted their first python on a Sri Lankan vacation, when Rizk said he felt an "instant affinity" for the creature. Click to see more pics of the creepy pair snuggling up to serpents.

Snakes are NOT FILTHY animals, they are very clean!
I had a 6 ft Florida Indigio and he was immaculate, with his living quarters too! Very docile, even while
going through his shedding. You say their primitive,
but if you treat everything with genuine love, you will
see some reaction in return. He loved being with people - people are the filthy, ugly, mean, unloving, distrusting creatures. They turn loving animals into mean animals trying to survive.

snakes are actually one of the cleanest creatures. they dont bark, dont go to the bathroom all over your house, dont smell. they are the easiest pet to take care of actually. granted these people should have them in a cage and maybe will need some help if something happened, especially with the burmese. but all in all they are not crazy

Michael Jackson did not molested any children. That was just all a racist trap set by people who wanted money and wanted to ruin his reputation. Many people do not have to live with the stereotypes in our United States and that is their choice and right. Also if the snake so called freaks were caucasian you would not hear the same sound on the comments as you hear now because they are from Lebanon. That is the same disrespectful behaviour many of our nation citizens demonstrate abroad in other countries making trouble for the nation and encouraging hatred from other nations towards our country. In another words some of our people think they are something they are not period. False pride destroys a nation.

Michael Jackson didn't feelup any little kids. OJ didn't cut off his ex's head and Marion Berry didn't snort coke and stalk women in the park. If you say it enough then the world has to believe it.

You need to take some time and go back to your English as a second language class. Judging by the errors in your entry, you are not a native of the United States. If you were, you would be able to read better and notice that the posts were non-racist. They were offensive and displayed a lack of tolerance, but they were not racist. As for Michael Jackson, he is dead, let him rest. What he did or did not do will never be proven at this point, so it is no longer an effective or efficient use of time to discuss it. And the last time I checked, posting on a message board is a confined response and bears no comparison to boastful behavior while abroad. Pride is a wonderful flag to fly.

That comment was not the subject at hand and even if it was Michael J did his time in the court room. He was found not guilty in the court of law. If he did or did'nt,he's gone on now to be judged by the one and only. So please let him rest in peace and spare his family from all your no none-sense remarks,just beat it!

There is nothing wrong with having snakes. I have two myself and used to have more. As for the girl killed by the python, probably what it was the parents killed her and blamed it on the snake. A snake is not going to just go and kill someone for the heck of it. Or they didn't feed the snake or take care of it. More people are mauled or bit by dogs everyday then bit or killed by a snake. To be killed by a snake is as rare as being struck by lightning.

Are you nuts? Of course you are. They killed the child and blamed it on the snake? Not likely. Snakes are snakes, deadly and will kill a warm blooded body because that's what they do. It's instinct. AND YOU ARE STUPID!!!
