Simon Impey's father says the 5-year-old didn't cry once while en route for help after the attack in Washington state.
Wow, brave boy.
And here I was expecting this thread to have a much different plot. I need a spankin.
That whole family has guts in abundance. And thank God there was no border SNAFU on this occasion.
Thank you Lord.
Yes you do. Sadly, I was thinking the same thing.
Here’s the faulty premise of Canadians, and a warning to all Americans:
“We were quite frightened,” he said. “We picked up sticks, ...”
Guns are better than sticks.
Fight cultural devolution - get rid of YOUR Canadian socialism, make CCW permits a matter of right, and carry, always.
Jefferson was correct - “it is their right and duty to be at all times armed”.
Ashton Kutcher’s mom?
Someone was watching out for the lil’ tike. So many of these cougar stories don’t have happy endings.
True.
But even in this country there is a mindset by some liberals.
For instance there is the case where a mountain lion attacked a bicyclist in Orange County park California in 2004. The second bicyclist (probably a liberal) tried to help her friend who was in the clutches of the animal by simply grabbing on to her feet and tugging her (instead of actually attacking the cat, say with her bicycle across the cat's head).
It took a third and fourth bicyclist to come along and attack the Mountain Lion with rocks before the animal finally let go.
At least in this latest case, the mother went right after the cat.
People forget that an UNARMED HUMAN is easy meat on the table for many predators. Let me think, uh, a pack of wolves, any kind of bear, a pack of coyotes, wolverines, cougars, bobcats, wild dogs (three dogs of any kind are a PACK! Ask any sheep herder.) There are probably others.
Hiking is just one of the most pointless and stupid activies I can think of. Now we see that it’s also dangerous.
“But even in this country there is a mindset by some liberals.”
And how!
Any who wish can go to www.evergladesinstitute.org and listen or watch ‘Lil Debby, an NPS ParcPerson, blabbering about how they never considered that cougar could be a risk to humans.
This intellectual Twinkie (all frosting, no IQ points), and a five person team was unable to correctly determine the gender of a 60 pound cougar around whose neck they had placed a radio collar.
When the Armed and Rangerous, like ‘Lil Debbie are allowed to make policy, lives are lost, and unspeakable attacks upon children result.
However, Jacobson’s Law of Beastly Behavior Control states:
“When gunpowder speaks, beasts obey.”
The Founders knew what they were saying when the wrote that it was their right and duty to be at all times armed”.
Tyrannical political predators and hungry beastly predators are equally respectful of the rights of the armed.
Where were these women when I was in college! Oh yeah. Grammar school. Never mind.
A pistol would have worked much more quickly.
You obviously haven't hiked the 12 mile section of the Ozark Trail from Taum Sauk Mountain to Johnson's Shut ins..
But I’ve been to Barcellona
