I would feel safer alone in a room with the bear than a politician. At least I know what the bear wants.

Yea, to be able to re-build his hibernation food mountain of human junk food after a raccoon and his friends stole it again

The flag has a grizzly. Compared to that, a black bear is like a deer

As someone who lives in this same town, black bears are more like overweight raccoons.

Fun fact, our "city hall" is at the tiny community airport, which also had a restaurant with the best chicken wings in town (salt and vinegar wings FTW). The restaurant was still going when this happened in 2019, so my guess is the bear smelled the food and went looking for the kitchen, only to get sidetracked by the city council meeting.

So the bear came for the food, but stayed for active community participation

Sounds like an upstanding citizen to me! More people should be like bear

More community meetings should bribe people to attend by offering food.

The bear probably has new perspective to things, I hope they hear it out 😁

I feel like "eat all politicians, burn the system down, and start anew" is a valid position, lol.

They'll have to bear with him.

Smarter than the average bear.
