[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 1058875, member: 11717"] JE I'm not upset at all by others opinion. I totally respect your and others opinion on the subject. I do get the feeling sometimes others get a little agitated with me and my opinion if I suggest that I think spray is the "best" deterrence. I've had debates on this subject in another forum and they usually got very heated to say the least. I'm trying to avoid that here. There are those who feel that bear spray is part of an anti-gun agenda and I don't doubt that the anti-gunners are pro spray. But that doesn't change that "I" believe that spray is the "best" option. If I didn't think so, a gun would be my first choice. Interestingly, I always thought guns were the best option until I had to get spray for deterrence in YNP as guns were not allowed. When I purchased the spray I decided to give a trial run to make sure I understood how to do it and that it really worked, i.e. not a dud. I had no intention of inhaling it and when I did inhale it after it had dissipated to the point were it could not be seen and it nearly incapacitated me, my mind was changed. A burst right from the can would be many times more concentrated and I would not want to even think about getting a face full of that. Anyway, I understand and respect your opinion. [/QUOTE]
