Yes, there are tons of idiots who feed the bears, either on purpose or indirectly (by having bird feeders out, or putting trash out the night before collection day). Then people cry about the bears being there. They wouldn't be coming to people's houses for food if they could never find food at people's houses.

In my area there's been an ongoing issue with some a-hole from NY baiting bears and then charging tourists to check them out and take photos. Someone's going to end up getting killed as a result eventually.
