Well, if he had called the police they could have cuffed the bear and taken him to the police station.
To: nickcarraway
The fact that he fired a weapon in a neighborhood with others nearby is what investigators with Colorado Parks and Wildlife say accounts for the third charge he faces, alleging the man was careless in his actions.But if a cop had shot a dog in a neighborhood with people nearby, everything would be hunky-dory, no carelessness at all.

Jury nullification. All he needs is one dog owner. Exhibit A, a large glossy photo of Fido.

Notice the government pigs pile up the charges so they can force him to plead out. In no way did the shooter “possess” wildlife nor did he discharge a firearm carelessly. Once again the lesson here is never speak with government slime without representation. Had a lawyer got to this guy first he would have known enough to only say he feared for HIS personal safety.

This sort of lunacy in law enforcement and even laws, is exactly what will make people avoid following the law. In this case, such law enforcement is not serving individual rights and our good. The rule of law is diminished.
Ayn Rand put it well in Atlas Shrugged, paraphrasing; You make too many laws and then everyone is a criminal.
So if I am already a criminal no matter what I do, and my dog is being killed by a bear, I will shoot the bear. And thus- ‘Shoot, Shovel, and Shuddup’.

Could be. But I’m sure he would be just as happy, if not happier, in the U.P.

So if a bear wants to eat your dog, —
Better keep your dog healthy.
Don’t want to feed the bear ‘junk’ food.

I guess he should have given the bear pot.

"Well, if he had called the police they could have cuffed the bear and taken him to the police station." I believe there's a claws that prevents them from doing that.
To: nickcarraway
Still more government overreach.
It goes on forever, and it’s getting worse all the time.

This looks like a job for: Jury Nullification.

The dog owner is an idiot for leaving his trash out and letting his dogs off leash. What did he think would happen?
To: nickcarraway
The man will have to bear the burden of his actions. Lucky dog in that it bearly escaped death.
