In fact, when I’m in the woods and see anything other than a bear, I just start shooting first and save the questions for later (like “wtf was I just shooting at?” “did I hit it?” “did I manage to save the people that started screaming right after I started shooting, probably spooking it into running into them?” “I’ve been running for several km now after my magazine ran out, is it still chasing me?” “should I use my potions or save them for when I really need them?”)
I’m just doing what I can to make the woods a safer place.
it’s objectively the better choice. bears are consistent in their behavior and attitudes. humans are a vast spectrum of unpredictable
Yeah, I grew up around hunters and it was common knowledge that the most dangerous animal you can encounter in the wild is another human.

This is a very sane and Buddhist thing to do
It is Buddhist philosophy to try to make heaven on earth rather than hope for the best in the afterlife, after all.
