Hmm, It was a black bear. I expect Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson to show up on the case soon.

Funny. I "saw" that on the radio as I was driving in this morning and hadn't had a chance to pull up the video. I think the guy may have had to change his drawers afterwards.

More like it was a black bear, so his only real danger was being licked to death. What a cutie pie.

It's obvious that what he was texting was private, and he didn't want the bear to see. Probably another case of a guy getting busted having text sex.

True, but the average person walking down the street typing a text may not be able to identify the genus and species that quickly.

Little too much Disney here. I want no part of a 500lb+ bear, black or otherwise. In the 2000's there were well over a dozen fatal black bear attacks in NA. Actually if that weight is accurate that's very much on the largish side for a blackie.

Please bear in the mind the dangers of texting and walking.

Even as I typed it I was sure there would be some kind of comment forthcoming.
