I remember when I was fifteen, my father was bitten by a venomous snake. We thought it was just a bull snake, but it turned out to be a rattlesnake, and it might have turned out differently if we had known how to spot the baby rattlers that are common in Utah, where I grew up. Still, baby snakes are difficult to detect.
Sometimes it is difficult to I.D. which type of snake you have encountered, especially if you haven’t learned about the common ones, or studied their identifying features. Whether you’re bugging out or just on a hike when you discover a snake, or he discovers you, there’s no telling what may happen next if you don’t have a little bit of knowledge.
Most snakes are not venomous, but the one that bit my dad happened to be. Wouldn’t you rather be safe than sorry and be confident you know which snake you are dealing with, just in case?
Certainly, venom can mean trouble, but even a bit from a non-venomous snake can present a threat. The largest threat to someone bitten by a snake is usually that the wound may become infected with the bacteria from the snake’s mouth. In other words, once get bit that bacteria is now on your skin and in the wound. With a venomous snake, even a small bite can cause the area around the wound to swell up a lot, and of course the venom can cause much more severe problems, so treat any snake with caution and respect.

Trumpism;
An ideology that rejects any aspect of critical thinking, empathy, temporal logic, with high degrees of willful ignorance. Actions are impulsive instead of intelligent. Mandatory degrading of minosrity’s, disabled, elderly, mothers, wives, and daughters. Adheres to the premise that all people are created equal, but white people are more equal than others. The use of rhetoric imagining extreme religious dogmas. Discrimination against minority’s is emboldened. Belief that freedom of speech & religion is determined by the concept that such freedom of speech and religion is defined by the select few. Extols the fact that the 1% is entitled to your money. The reading of books is forbidden in the ideology and condemns those that do. Book burning is a virtue. Condemns the media for reporting facts. Educated people are to be shunned and treated as the “Academic Elite”. Science is never to be considered. Exploitation at the expense of natural resources is maximized. Fiscal responsibility is non-existent. Bribery is a means to an end. Thinking for oneself is forbidden. Never admit to being wrong, lewd, or a liar. To lie is a virtue. The truth is what we say the truth is. Create and profess alternative facts and realities. Never admit wrong doing as it is always the other persons fault. Laws and ethical standards do not apply.
