Old tried an true prevails in battle again

IMHO, one of two things.

The story in the link is not the full story. If it weren't for the dog, I'd be really suspicious.

Or, the PD doesn't want people thinking they can shoot a bear, because some assholes will shoot a bear when they don't have to. So this guy gets charged despite it being a legitimate defensive shooting.

I met a guy that told me he was charged in Pa for killing a bear out of season and without a bear liscense/tag . He said the bear came thru the screen door of his cabin . I forget all the other details but sounded legit .

He was cited for reckless endangerment and unlawful discharge of a firearm. The police impounded his Kimber as evidence. The Kimber, with custom modifications, is worth about $1800.

Really? TENNESSEE?? LOLWUT?

I agree that the charges are bullshit but I also think taking the gun and charging were the correct steps. Had he left the scene with the gun, no guarantee they would get it back as evidence should something be discovered shortly after the fact. Say toxicology for example. You can't put toothpaste back in once its out. Same thing here. Much easier to dismiss charges and return evidence later than try to collect later.

Grrrr..ru..ruff? Woof? That's some Scott Foresman, Dick and Jane storytelling right there. Shoot, Greg, shoot! Run, bear, run!

But Greg's dog had come out, and peaked around the corner. It growled and emitted a bark, Grrrr..ru..ruff! The bear jumped over the downed trash can, landed with a Woof!, and charged directly at Greg.

So drunk or high people aren’t allowed to defend themselves?

Almost as good as saying some feee men shouldn’t be allowed to own guns.

It may have been the best thing in the view of LE. But if the charges were made and property seized by LE despite them not thinking laws were broken, that is 100% wrong, morally, if not legally.

Tennessee is turning commie. As with all crime or incidents like this, the first inclination of the hate mongering leftist is to blame the victim. In this case, the lefty cops would have preferred this man be killed or injured to defending himself from his attacker.

If their twisted leftist cop logic holds true and this man's wife had been raped, they would have arrested her for prostitution.

No, this is not near as bad. The bear ran off after being shot, so no hole to dig.

The story isn't adding up. He was there to "visit a friend".....look at those grips. Motel 6? Pearly grips? Girlfriend Vicki?
"Hillbilly pimp, shoots Blackbear in downtown Gatlinburg".

It says that shitty motel wasn't their first choice. They had already booked a different hotel that was pet friendly. Upon arrival, it turns out the hotel wasn't able to offer them a pet friendly room. The couple ended up leaving to look for a last minute hotel room where their dog would be allowed.

LOL! I thought the same thing. Who wrote that... and who was it written FOR? 3rd graders??

IF this makes it to court, I would hope Tennesseeans would invoke Jury Nullification. The charge is ridiculous.

I swear, the commies are far more in resemblance to a prionic disease like mad cow or CWD than any virus or traditional infection. Slow and steady and almost unstoppable. They cause others around them to turn into them too.

And we currently have as many effective treatments for prionic infections as we have fucking warp drives...

He was cited for reckless endangerment and unlawful discharge of a firearm???

“If” discharging a firearm to stop a charging Bear is “unlawful”.... When is it lawful??

I think we all know that if we shoot someone in self defense (or in this case a bear), we will likely face charges... As wrong as it is, we all except that! Because, we would rather risk being charged with “reckless endangerment and unlawful discharge of a firearm” then get slaughtered like sheep!

A jury won’t convict him of these charges...

So are you saying that LE has a right to a perform a toxicology analysis in this case?

Or did you mean on the bear? Perhaps the bear ate a bag of meth from the garbage can. It is TN after all...

Many bears wondering around Gattlinburg?

Bears walk around Tennessee motel?

Easy, file a suit that both the city and motel failed in their responsibilities to protect him and put his life in danger from bears. He made a conscience decision to visit their town, spend money so they can have the means to operate their city and motel so they have a duty to protect him from a known hazard and failed. Should punish them hard!!

Dogs and bears are a no no, 99% of the time the dog retreats bringing booboo with them back to the person even if the bear has an escape route or not, the dog is seen as a threat. Just a human, animals that have an escape usually do but every animal and every encounter is different

As far as the action he took, I was not there so I cannot render an opinion.

Nothing more American than this, don't know why everyone is upset.

He's gonna add to our huge prison population if he loses, making it even harder for other nations to catch up, and that's something to be proud of.

A few greedbags will make a fortune off this if he wins, funneling more funds from the middle class to the greed class, be proud.

If he loses, he loses the pistol. If he wins, he'll in essence lose several pistols to pay to keep the one he has. Oh, America!

WE need our own state, if not our own nation at this point. It's just not working out for the 99%.

PS, bear was NOT at that hotel checking to see if someone was using his bed... He ate there and that man was in his way. Man was also between bear and his loved one(s). I'd have done the exact same thing if the motherfucker didn't back off.

PSS, he had a beer! The horror! And in a vacation town at that!

We should firemission a rally and march to demand that his charges be dropped. Outside the courthouse and threaten to dox those behind the charges if need be. There is a reason why leftist extremists use those tactics. They are effective. We won't go as far as blocking traffic and being dicks to our fellow citizens but we can put a lot of pressure on certain assholes and persuade them to lay the fuck off with their bullshit.

According to libtards apparently only illegals, and criminals in a commission of a crime against law abiding taxpayers are the only ones legally able to discharge a firearm for any reason. Self defense against dangerous animals, both 4 legged and 2 legged libtards isnt allowed. Also in their world, water is dry, grass is purple, and down is up.

“old tried and true prevails in battle”.....uh....no. that bear was probably false charging him, and still could have had him had it wanted him; evidenced by the fact that they didnt find the bear.

If you consider this “prevailing”, then we have different definitions of the word. Had the bear been killed on the spot, yup. But it wasnt. Were it me, i’d be re-examining my ammo/ carry choice.

A fellow never knows what situation you might find yourself in. And when you do find yourself in a situation, chances are super high that it is not one you envisioned or saw coming; so your plans usually go to shit before it even has started. It is best to have ammo that is going to take care of whatever task you ask of it. Even if that means staggering ammo type. And yes, i do.
