    Local officials were too busy protecting tourists from locals I guess.

    There's a lot of discussion locally basically demanding that authorities take charge and arrest these easily identifiable people.

    I'm usually opposed to mob justice, but I'd say it's understandable in this case.
    Given that they orphaned one of the cubs and may have even killed another, yes, I certainly wouldn't mind them being taught a lesson to serve as an example to others.

    Yeah. If there isn't a law on the books that specifically addresses harassment of bear cubs, this is a great opportunity to create one.

    The level of entitlement the some people exhibit is truly breathtaking.

    Hopefully this thing comes with some sort of GPS tracking system so arson investigators will know who used it.

    Nice! I like the sense of humor the guys at that site have...

    1) Throw Flame - Fuel your fire (nice slogan)

    2) Love the legal disclaimer
    In the USA Flamethrowers are federally unregulated and not even considered a firearm (ironic) by the BATF. No need for any NFA tax stamps, weapons licensing or even an FFL dealer. It’s the purchaser’s responsibility to ascertain that ownership and or use does not violate any state or local laws or regulations.

    That is indeed a fantastic photo. Hell of a game as well.

    I am sorely tempted to give you an infraction for not including the AMAZING PHOTOS on that website in your post!!

    Why are you wasting time here when you could be wasting it by listening to the latest episode of the DBR Podcast?

    Well, the website is either overloaded or shut down today, so try the youtube video instead:

    Not surprising but interesting. Over $7 million in cars stolen and caught by customs last year.just in Port of charleston and Savanah. I wonder how many they didn't catch or what they didn't catch.

    Crime does well. I used to work for a logistics provider and IIRC, despite every effort, they lost a billion each year to stealing.

    Canada car thefts

    I know this is behind a paywall, but the car theft issue in Montreal and Toronto is just crazy...people having to erect barriers in their own driveways...in Montreal it's been a factor for decades, park your car at the airport and before you get on the plane your vehicle has been loaded onto a container at the Port of Montreal and away she goes...many people have had multiple cars taken.
