I can't help but wonder what these fans are trying to prove when they go around causing trouble and unrest even when "their" team wins. I can understand it when the team loses, though it's really excessive to cause so much damage to people and property over a bunch of guys none of the perpetrators know personally, but why does it happen after a win as well? How hard is it to satisfy these people?

Most fans feel a great connection to their team after being loyal to them for so long. So, when their team wins, they feel the same joy that the players do. Well, maybe not the same joy, but it feels pretty great. Especially if your team has played so poorly for so long. Although I think the Lakers won their respective league's championship the last two or three years (?), so I'm not so sure. Maybe they just like to party

Haha, the myth about him getting "rid" of all the snakes in Ireland is so laughable.

For some reason, it gives people to down alcohol like as if it is the cure for all ailments past and future.

Welcome back imperialist. XD, you know if I wanted to slowly poison myself I wouldn't wanna waste my time and just drink snake poison. Honestly though they're really people who do idiotic stuff like that and belief its a miracle of a god. Funny thing that can be scientifically explained as certain snake poisons can be digested safely without any harm because they need to be exposed to the blood stream to have an affect. It's all in the faith!!

Snake venom is actually made up of proteins, so if you drink snake venom, your digestive system breaks it down just like the proteins you get when eating meat, chicken, turkey, pork, or fish.

Insulin is also a protein, but it must be injected in order to work. But NOT directly into a vein, but into the skin by pinching a roll of fat, and injecting it into the fat to slowly enter the bloodstream. Injecting directly into a vein will cause a dangerous rapid drop in blood sugar levels.

The oral medications that some Type 2 diabetics take who are not yet insulin dependent are NOT insulin pills. They merely help your body to use it's natural insulin more efficiently by lowering insulin resistance. Insulin will not work in pill form because insulin being a protein will be broken down and digested just like the proteins in meat.

Therefore, insulin must be injected, and too much insulin will cause you to go into shock and possibly die unless sugar is administered.

So, both snake venom and insulin are proteins.

Snake venom injected into the blood stream kills.

Too much insulin in the blood might also kill if your blood sugars drop to dangerously low levels.

But either one consumed orally is simply broken down and digested like the proteins from eating meat.

Thanks for clearing that up fatman. Interesting, technically snake venom isn't considered poison because ingesting it generally won't kill you.
