Knew a lot of folks that used to work there who said just that. They all quit when he was reelected.

This was not a rampaging bear and if they hand anyone with an ounce of sense they could have managed this.
My kids grew up just south of there. The folks there are not suburban folks. They would be more afraid of the possibility of a rogue policeman or a new drug dealer targeting the area or high or jonesing suburban youths looking for quick money thinking they could score drugs in that area. Medium black bear, no problem.
