Shit, grizzly walked through our upper pasture in the farm by Flathead lake.
I was not attacked. We had cougar too...I was not attacked. Big fucking wolves too. None of my 6 siblings were attacked.

My dad had weapons. He hunted ducks and deer. So in a family of 9, there were 3 firearms. a 30-30 a shotgun and a .22 pistol (rabbit plinking).

Dad never felt compelled to carry while on the fucking farm...I am getting tired of the justifications.

The discussions have to be on how do we control this fucked up senseless killing of innocent people?
