When your friend is attacked by a couger, it is best to run away. This is what a friend for.

Two friends on a morning mountain bike ride 30 miles east of Seattle.

A couger jumped and attacked victim #1.

Victim #2 turned and started to run away.

The cougar saw Victim #2 and went after Victim #2.

Victim #1 saw his friend being pulled by the cougar. He got on his bike and started to bike away and survived to tell the tale.

The mountain lion was not looking for lean meat.

Dear Heavens Almighty, are you guys being facetious or did the animal really eat the Trans Fat while the Gay Jew peddled away?

Tragedy, but there's a joke in here somewhere.

At least the kitty snacked not on a person who was denied the right to carry a gun but on two boobs who wouldn't carry it even if allowed.

As a former member of two huge cycling clubs (combined memberships probably over 5000), you just don't see serious cyclists that are that fat. It just doesn't happen. I doubt that they are an avid biker, because if you bike that much, it's pretty much impossible to be that fat.

an old Lakota joke my great grandma used to tell. It basically amounts to two bear hunters who discuss that bears can run 35 mph. The first hunter puts on hiking boots. The second puts on running shoes. First hunter "Why do you have on running shoes when bears can outrun a Toyota?"

When your oral traditions include foreign automobiles, running shoes, and English measurement units, it kind of casts doubt upon their ancient native provenance.

LOL, so native people can neither appropriate English words for modern inventions, nor use said inventions. Got it. I'll a smoke signal to the chiefs.

You don’t have to be faster than a bear; you only need to be faster than your partner.

I suppose a 300 lb trans kid is the perfect hiking and biking partner.

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't run. But I'm not sure I would do the right thing. Would I freeze for too long ? Perhaps using your bicycle somehow would have been wise. Just fall on the cougar and your friend with your bicycle. Freak the thing out enough to make it run. I know, it's easy to say what you would do. Who knows ?

Trump said he would have run after the shooter at Parkland, even if he was unarmed.
