Please, please. When dealing with Massachusetts or California, no sarcasm can be used.

None.

Because there is no discernible difference between reality and sarcasm in either place.

Feel sorry for those unfortunate enough to live there.

Is a shooting bear related to a dancing bear?

Ah, when seconds count: “A phone call would have brought these professionals to the scene within a matter of hours.”

Well, there you go. Bear could have been done mauling the old feller and be off doing other bear-things in the woods. Those things that bears do in the woods, you know.

Run from the bear? They’re faster than humans although I have to say that the slick brown streak I’d be leaving in my trail would make footing somewhat unsure for the pursuing bear and lighten my load thus making me faster.

A 76-year-old Massachusetts man is facing weapons charges for shooting a bear in his backyard. Richard Ahlstrand of Auburn Massachusetts shot the bear when the 400 lb. animal attacked him as he was tending the bird-feeders he keeps on his property.

Ok... I guess the man should have let the bear have him for dinner.

According to Massachusetts authorities, Ahlstrand should have called animal control officers to handle the wayward bear. “The State employs professionals trained in safe animal removal,” Rufus Bustard, spokesman for Massachusetts Attorney General. “A phone call would have brought these professionals to the scene within a matter of hours.”

A matter of HOURS?? The bear could have eaten him, then what? You'd have 1 less taxpayer in Mass.
