Not if they are not directly threatening.

(Last time I heard of someone local out to shoot a snake was about 25 years ago when the snake was trying to go up a drainpipe outside their bedroom .... and they still let it go, merely pointing the gun at it as it slithered off ... I was the one who raised the alarm).

They are making a healthy return in numbers around here, and people generally take precautions just to avoid them.
