I can`t figure out why,after being attacked the first time he didn`t have that gun in his hand? I sure as hell would have.

Found this follow up interview with Tom Orr that was posted on June 21, 2017. Definitely worth watching.

Read any book by Gary James Shelton, Herraro etc....numerous cases where spray absolutly saved lives

If he used his pistol during the first attack I gurantee there wouldn't have been a second attack.

Maybe it's not the bears fault, but who cares? It's not like the guy was out looking for trouble. You hear all the time how people get killed but it wasn't the bears fault, im of the impression that I'd rather hear how the bear was killed but it wasn't the humans fault, they are just trying to save their life.

I have to commend that guy on keeping his composure tho that's for sure.

So, now the bear gets an iron supplement too.

Yeah that's a shootable offence. The odd can of beer sure. When it turns to whiskey you've only got one option.
