Dead Campus Bear Not Politically Or Racially Motivated - Alaskan Marine Adventures

It appears the outcome of the dead black bear incident over the weekend at Western Carolina University isn’t going to satisfy the thousands of hate filled people who, without any evidence to support claims, laid the blame for this on McCain supporters.

Yesterday, I briefly informed readers of the incident, called it despicable and said, “Sensible people will know that such an act could have been perpetrated by almost anyone” Throughout the day, I was actually shocked to read the absolutely disgusting, vitriolic hate speech and accusations unsubstantiated with facts or evidenced that appeared across the Web!

According to Western Carolina University police, after interviewing seven students involved in the episode, they have determined that the whole thing was merely a stupid prank.

He said according to the interviews that have been conducted so far, some students camping in a forested area off campus stumbled across the body of the bear while searching for firewood late Saturday night, Oct. 18.

The students said that they put the bear in the back of a pick-up truck and continued their camping trip.

The students told police that they went to a social get-together at The Summit, an off-campus residential complex, on Sunday night, Oct. 19, with the bear in the back of the truck. At that gathering, they decided along with other students to place the carcass near the main entrance of campus.

They said while they were taking the bear to the campus, they took random political signs and put them on the bear’s head to try to prevent blood from getting on the truck bed.

Johnson said that the incident was(not) politically or racially motivated, but was just a prank..

An investigation continues to determine if charges should be filed.

After reading what I read on blogs across the Web yesterday, this explanation will not satisfy any of the blood thirsty left, blinded by hatred toward McCain and Palin. But until such time as authorities conclude something different, I’ll accept their explanation and hope I won’t be attacked by some left-wing crazed idiot.
