Agree -
In my opinion Black Bears in the lower 48 aren't given to being aggressive.
That said, if surprised, and protecting cubs, I don't want bear spray...
Any bear in AK can be an issue, but the black bears I saw acted like foxes when browns bears were in the area, furtive and looking for easiest quick opportunities.
