No Kindness for the Coward

The only venomous snake in Montana is the prairie, aka western rattlesnake. John tells Carter at dinner, to count the number of rattles to determine the snake's age. Rattlesnakes typically shed their skin 2-3 times per year, and each skin shed creates a new "button" or rattle. If the rattle has 10 buttons, the snake could be 3-5 years old.

1. The FBI would not send in a SWAT team to break up a protest on private property. 2. An FBI SWAT team member, or any trained police officer, would not hit a protester over the head with a baton, even if assaulted. That's considered deadly force, and would, in all likelihood, result in a serious head injury or death. It's the equivalent of shooting a suspect in the use of force scale. This show needs a law enforcement liaison, because there are implausible things in every episode.
