If the snake is courteous enough to make some noise and not bite you then you should be courteous enough to do like wise. Exactly how do you think you are going to fare on night patrol with the water moccasins, copperheads and rattle snakes at Benning and Bragg. How do you think your TACs are going to look upon your whining about some poor snake who is only looking for a mouse or toad frog and you wanting to be armed because you are afraid of snakes.
