I haven't read all 80 posts so I don't know if this has been mentioned. I do see statements that the police are powerless to act or do anything. My understanding is in Florida boa constrictors are classified as exotic pets and a license is required to own one. I don't see why if the police were alerted to the presence of a large snake in a public area, they couldn't at least ask the owner if they had a permit and then let them know that the snake was making the patrons of the square uneasy.
