1. When you are from Montana, a wild animal attack is a VALID fear. I am
from Montana. You are taught in school what to do when confronted by a black bear, a grizzly bear, a mountain lion, etc.

I once had a bobcat run right in front of me. Startled me.

6. Oh, but I was never personally afraid of that. My biggest fear was somehow
getting lost and dying of hypothermia. Which is another valid fear if you live in Montana.

2. can you explain your white woman comment??
Edited on Mon Aug-01-11 12:38 PM by DFab420
Or are news stories now only valid if reach a certain quota?? Or is it that white women don't deserve coverage cause, let's face it, they're white??


I'm confused.

7. Well, a bear poos in the woods, but don't poo here.
The lead is certainly insensitive, and I suggest that it be changed. That is what I said in my alert.
