Can some one tell me who made the quote about how it's better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt?
awshucks I do not know who made that quote, but I think I could point you in a direction to show you what the quote was talking about
This thread was was started to to get people thinking about how rules in some States and Provinces do
DISCRIMINATE against some people . It also showed that there is still ignorance and discrimination put forth from some people as well. The only way this will stop is for these people to either grow up or become true humans and treat everyone as an equal,
but can or should we expect our governments to actually act responsibly.
grumpytom, its not IGNORANCE from some people,its a lot of hunters..lets all face TRUTH,even if it makes someone mad..
compound archery hunters HATE crossbow user..why, because you have chance to kill a buck that they had ADVANTAGE..it takes a hell of a lot more practice and skill and strong arms and good sense of feel and distance etc..to kill a buck with compound than a crossbow..
this puts more hunters after the buck they had to themselves ..
i was at range, 25 compound shooters there..i walked in with my CROSSBOW,you could here a pin hit the floor..i said, HEY FOLKS, WHATS HAPPENING..1 guy had chewing tobacco in his mouth, he looked like he was going to spit it in my eye..
others said,why dont those old turds,i did not know i was old yet,stay home..other said, oh, he probably one of those DISABLED faking it to get crossbow permit..
as soon as i got ready to shoot, all kinds of nasty little rules came..oh, wait for us, dont move, does that thing richocet,thats not bow, its a gun..
in other words,they did not want me there..these are also members of the BIGGEST archery clubs in state,bowhunters of pa.or BPA..
how are you going to change them,YOUR NOT!!only way is if crossbows become legal ,then the compound shooters will change to crossbows ,just like they did with recurve bows..
until then, dont expect any RESPECT from archery hunters..i still feel best way is to allow archery hunters to have their oct/nov season, give crossbow hunters gun season, and late archery..no hunters but crossbow hunters can hunt in those seasons..
that would make me happy as i will not have all these ROOKIES running around disturbing my hunting in archery..i dont want more hunters ,i want quiet,no hunters,no noise and chance at getting a nice buck..
now, you heard truth, some will say,SPROUL KEEP YOU MOUTH SHUT..YOUR IGNORANT.. no, sproul is telling TRUTH ..
SPROUL HAS SPOKEN!!
