Recalls a vile and disgusting video that has found notoriety on the interwebs, but this is about real geologists, bears and guns.
Hindsight is 20/20: "The project chief believed “guns added more danger to an encounter than they would prevent”. Her views became policy on the project. Cynthia later said, in a taped interview for Larry Kanuit: “She had therefore strongly discouraged us from carrying any kind of a firearm.” "...The bear managed to eat and destroy much of both her arms before help arrived. She did not resist the bear. If she had a firearm, she could easily have shot the bear. At 10 feet, standing still, even a small pistol could have worked." The other geologist, armed (heheh, no pun intended, but well  ) enjoyed a happier outcomehttps://www.ammoland.com/2022/06/two-ge ...

But she's still morally superior...somehow.

So - did she bear arms, or arm bears ? Or, both ?
One thing is for sure, she won't be carrying a gun, ever, right ? So many questions, so little time. _________________ Give a man a fish, and he will eat for a day.

These stories illustrate belief and consequences.
At least it was her belief and her consequence of her belief and not someone else that was forced to suffer her stupidity in bear country. |

I hate to make insensitive puns at someone expense, especially as serious as the injuries she had were, but... If she had been armed, she wouldn't have been disarmed. If she had been armed then, maybe she'd be armed now. Bear arms, don't give bears arms. _________________ Posts not legal advice. |
