Interesting, he mentions "warning shots" three times, presumably with the defensive weapons he advocates. Rocks, water bottle, sticks yet leaves out the obvious defensive weapon most effective. Though I wouldn't suggest warning shots, often referred to as illegal discharge, if your life is threatened. Even left out bear spray, which always appears in these articles. For the unarmed his solutions are reasonable.
