Montana Bear Attack – Would Guns Have Made a Difference?

The debate over guns in national parks continues to rage, but it is worth considering following a recent report of a bear attack in Montana. USA Today notes:

“In a sobering reminder that bears are the bosses of the backcountry, one person was killed and two others injured in a bear attack Wednesday at the heavily occupied Soda Butte campground just outside Yellowstone National Park.”

Would the bears have been able to attack and take a life had anyone in the campground been armed?
