But it's not exaclty a remote area. This occurred at base plant, not the middle of the woods. It's not exaclty an area you can just go discharging firearms, no matter the reason. They already don't have people available to respond to more likely emergency scenarios, let alone a 1-in-a-million bear attack.

As tragic as this event is, I don't think having people shooting a 30-30 or .306 near pressurized vessels containing hydrocarbons at temps well above thier flash point is a great idea.
