Clearly you don't know jack about snakes.  A juvenile boa constrictor is not capable of doing much harm to anyone, and even the venomous species are mostly docile and can be handled easily on a snake hook or even a plain stick if they are not hurt or scared.   If a non-idiot had been handling this animal gently, there would not have been an issue.

Of course, that must be why vipers and anacondas are in every family home.

There have been in mine, actually.  But I really don't recommend that anyone who is not a professional or a very advanced hobbyist with professional level tools, skills, housing and safety protocols work with the potentially dangerous species.  The giants are a much more serious physical management job than any of the venomous species, and I am not sanguine about their general availability to hobbyists.
