Default RE: License problems in NY- NY Outdoor News.

I agree, and disagree with this article. I agree the DECALS system could be much improved. I'd like to see that hunters cannot apply for WMU's that are closed or require Preference pts if they have none. I know people who are purposely making 1st selections in WMU's they cannot recieve a DMP to get a Preference pt for 06'.
But I also disagree in a way, because I feel hunters should be responsible to know what they are applying for, no less than hunters being responsible to know the game laws. The gentleman mentioned that applied for his 2nd choice in a area that was closed. Well under the circumstances its his own fault for not doing his homework before hand. He should've taken the time to find out which WMU's were open. Especially enlight of the DMP cutbacks.
