another numb-scull not carrying bear spray in a bear area. sad for


*the man and his family, and sad that the bear will be killed.

Nope, it could happen to anybody, maybe even a numb-skull like you! Why do
we want grizzlies, or black bears either for that matter, in Yellowstone
or
any other national park?
dude, get out of my thread, dont you have some mountain bikers to show


your ignorance to? *yes, it could happen to anybody, but less likely
to happen to someone carrying bear spray that knows how to use it. and
yes, i am an expert
2 grizzly deaths in Yellowstone this year, the first in 25 years -
both with a common denominator - failure to hike in the wilderness
responsibly, and now a bear has to die for it as well.

Bear spray may or may not work. A bazooka would work better and surer.

Visitors are entitled to walk safely in any national park without having to
fear bears and other predators ,,, other than the human kind of course. Park
rangers by and large do not know how to manage their own ****!

of course, it could never happen to a shut-in couch potato.


Hey, better to be a couch potato than 6 feet under at the local cemetery.
But hang in there. IF you are lucky then maybe some day you can be a couch
potato too!

One last thing, this was not your thread, it was someone who goes by the
name of Bill Blodo. But once something gets posted to Usenet , it belongs to
the world. Either get some smarts or get lost!
