Thanks..... I wasn't sure how this would go over. It is closer to my "natural" style. I learned to write in a lot of styles. Academic. "Journalistic". Advertising. Etc. But most people have a "natural" style, which reflects how their minds work. Or, in my case, doesn't work....LOL>
Umm.....look and listen? And run downhill. Bears don't run well downhill and tend to fall. The run really well uphill. Grizzlies don't climb trees well (obviously). But, as you go north, the trees get smaller.. In the bars up north there are always great debates on how to survive encounters with a hungry grizzly.
At minimum a .45-70, better yet a .458 Winchester Magnum or .460 Weatherby. Curiously, I also learned a shotgun with improved cylinder choke firing Brenneke Rifled Slugs do well within 75 yards. Don't use Foster slugs, only Brenneke will do.
Oh, another thing, Polar Bears are more dangerous!
Yes, polar bear are MUCH more dangerous. We hand polar bears in the zoo and every now again they were sedated for medical checks Up close...they're huge!
Long trail...if we go to war, I want to be in your foxhole. I have a Taurus .357 with hollow-points...useless against bears of course but in close-up urban situations like mine...
Of course you are quite right, Jenny. But (speaking as a wimpy "man" who would never venture into squirrel or fieldmouse country) don't forget that humans are wired to fight, hunt, and if necessary kill rival predators. Most of those instincts are drastically unsuitable in the modern world where we are top predator - but we still have them, alas and dammit. I suppose the key is never to go into bear country unless you are absolutely sure you can avoid either killing bears or being killed by them. That big lump of fat under one's skull should be of help there.
The Ukro-backed Nazi Jew 'Goobermmahn de France', having defeated its own disarmed people has acquired delusions of grandeur... the way an impotent acquires a woody with Viagara [sic]. Say, is there a French word for 'grandeur'?
If all the dots are directly or indirectly interconnected to coalesce into a giant 2D or 3D grid problem on the wider canvas then the challenge is to destroy the problem grid. Start by mapping the grid documenting the inputs each node receives from other nodes, the nodes internal processes, and the outputs the node feeds to other nodes. Limited resources and human energy are dedicated to dismantling a massive and complex problem grid. Handled tactically, picking convenient nodes and chewing on them, you will run out of resources, energy and probably not live long enough to get it done. Strategy is identifying the greater problem and targeting it for destruction, operations is identifying the nodes to destroy as a priority using limited resources, and tactics is the hands on act of destroying the nodes. If node A supports nodes B, C , and D and node A requires 20 hours to eliminate, node B 30 hous, node C 40 hours and node D 50 hours it might seem like 140 hours is required to solve the problem. But if operations determines that node A is B, C, and D's lynchpin, destroying A first could sometimes eliminate B, C, and D together with a further 10 hours if work thereby producing a solution taking 30 hours instead of 140. The grid is dynamic and keeps shifting and needs constant updating whilst it is being dismantled. Each node is viewed clinically like a black box with internal processes that receive inputs from other nodes, processes them, then feeds the products to other nodes. In the whole Luciferic philosophy vs. the universal logos thing that the world is now facing (you know, the good against evil thing) the number one node in the problem grid is international bankers of a common ethnicity. Do I get a job on the Russian general staff? I don't speak Russian though and have never been there.
Wow! I like this. In military strategy, when your enemy is dispersed in a grid with connected nodes for defense and offense as is the case in Nazi-occupied Ukraine (what I call the "Maginot grid"), strategy requires identify key nodes of connection - linchpin nodes--and destroying them to weaken the most heavily defended nodes, which must be isolated. A large city may be regarded as a major node but it depends on its ancillary connections, which is why Sun Tzu recommended against frontal assault.. Otherwise, you just bomb the whole thing -- but that doesn't always work-- as we see in Lebanon
Obviously the dots are multiplying rapidly and I am no analyst.
I really can't imagine what will happen in Ukraine after peace breaks out BUT it looks like it maybe country full of disgusting/armed nutcases. Will we have to build a wall to keep them all in?

Here in Japan it is a Brit propaganda outlet.....LOL
Best post of your yet!
Thanks

Fully agree.
"Reminds me of a guy I knew in Northern Canada who thought he would be safe in bear country with a .303."
So, what DO you recommend? (Besides canon or missile.)

The gun advice is really good.. I worked for a while in "Headless Valley". Guess why it was called that.

Don't go shooting wildlife!
Only if they start it.
In the Winter, bears hibernate.'
Imagine sleeping in your bed at night. You hear some rustling outside your 'tent/cabin.'
You come out with guns blazing only to find that you have shot a man instead of a bear!
I'll try to be careful.
Why would anyone try to kill a bear.
What is it that males like killing?
I have watched images of bears being 'treed' by hunters.
"Treed" means that hunters (because they are wimps) bring dogs in.
They surround the Bear who climb into a tree for protection.
The hunters shoot it.
Then these 'wimps' come home exhausted/go to the local bar and tell everyone how brave they are..
SCREW this...

Many modern "leaders" graduated from the Duke of Plaza-Toro Academy.
Love it!
Its spelled "WEF School For Not-So-Young Leaders."
That's why I am so proud to be a drop-out.
Oh dear, not the Houthis too 🤣
I'm wondering...who's next? The Taliban?
🤔🤣
I ♥️ "Hazel"! Now the Oligarchs are no longer safe in their bunkers! A submarine launched version would be nice.🤣
The Zircon can be launched from submarines.

You get the job for sure.

Shame Russia doesn't want it.
Not to worry, the nutcases will all move to Canada.
