This would not be the way to go....

Four found dead in Alligator Alley canal

As shotgun-toting sharpshooters fended off alligators, authorities removed a car with four dead people from a canal along Alligator Alley on Friday.

Records show the car is registered to Berline Sainval, 29, of Fort Myers. Sainval and three others were reported missing last week, but Florida Highway Patrol Lt. Roger Reyes said none of the four people found in the car was identified.

Yup, that's awful.

Notice how the reporters always call "official" armed people sharpshooters (even those with shotguns...SHEESH!), but if those were citizens, they'd be called gun-toting hunters - with the sneer behind the reporter's words clearly audible?
