While I'm in full agreement that the killing of this snake was most likely done out of a fear response bred out of ignorance, I don't know if "harmless" is quite the word to describe a king cobra.
However, if the snake had been left alone, or simply removed by a professional, both snake and human could have gone on about their day in peace...
Sad, but this stuff happens all to often to really be shocked by it anymore.

Yeah Ur Rite I Can't Really Say It Harmless But Imagine Getting Beaten With Golf Clubs and Worse Still I Have Worked With All Kinds of Cobras And Find This To Be 1 Of The Most Respectable Type I Start The Love For Cobras The Day I Handle A Baby King While On The Way Home He was Being Beaten By Stick I Just Grab The Thing And Put It In My Bag When Home now he's a 15footer But The Scars On Its Back Can Never Be Amended Only With Love And Time Will Make It Feel A Little Better

Not to be rude, but anyone who would "just grab" a king cobra and put it in their bag shouldn't be anywhere near venomous snakes of any kind... Just my opinion.

I say we track down those people and beat THEM with a golf club. Or at least that's what I would have done if I walked upon this in action.
