Only a fraction of the accounts are real but they are real. They've never shown any interest in harming anyone.
Yes, BF, like most other creatures, has no interest in harming anyone. There are stories of BF leading lost children out of the woods.
When I had my sighting, the BF made no agressive moves. It was clear daylight (about noon) and we were stone cold sober. We ran, NOT because of anything the BF did. We ran because we were frightened, but we did not feel threatened.
I should feel very sad if the only way to "prove" (prove as in by scientific standard) the actual existance is the intential downing of one of these creatures. I hold out hope of live capture and a later release. I do understand the way of science and the standards demanded.
BTW, Investigators have told me I give a very well constructed report. With a little over 20 + years in the US Military (now retired), they taught us how to observe, remember and make a proper report. I was a 4.0 in college and a member of the National Honor Society.
Why God (yes I believe in God) allowed me the privledge of seeing BF I do not know. I believe in Satan too. I've seen how God works. Unfortunately, It's so much easier to see how Satan works.
