Re: This is horrible - 22 yr old killed by bear in West Milford
Why does anything need to change based upon a single rare occurrence?
What I see are groups of people, using an extremely rare tragedy, going half-cocked to try to support their own agenda.
Hunters who want earlier/bow/muzzy seasons for bear are standing on their soap box. People who want less stringent gun regs will argue this is proof you need to be armed in the woods. Anti's will claim the bear was pushed out of its range by early season scouting and accustomed to human handouts from bait piles. Tree huggers will claim over development.... You get the point.
Take a deep breath, enjoy the outdoors and if you see a bear - don't panic, use common sense and enjoy the moment.
