Poke a bear with a hot stick and you might get bit. I don't see what the big deal is.



This was closer to being growled at. "Getting bit" is more like the robber baron sending half-a-dozen of pinkertons to your home, and neither you nor your family is ever seen again.

And the big deal is that is very much on the public interest to not see the days of the pinkertons come back again, so the bears have to be trained and get used to being poked at.
