Quite witty there, Pydpiper.
Point is, there is plenty of information out there, only a Google search away. For you few guys to want to sit here and avoid it, ignore it, or try to falsely deny it is totally absurd, foolish and blatantly disengenuous. It's not going to go away just because it's 'inconvenient' for your narrow minded view of the crossbow issue. You're going to have to deal with it eventually, whether you like it or not.
It's part of the history and culture of the weapon! If you love crossbows, you should embrace ALL of it, not just the little bits and pieces that fit so easily into that little niche you guys are wanting to fill.
