Default RE: For or Against Mandatory Bowhunter Education

ORIGINAL: iamyourhuckleberry

A college education is good...is it mandatory to get one?
Does a college education involve the killing of our wildlife? Does it presentperilous danger to someone else? Where's the genius in that question? Do you truly think this is the "land of the free"? Come to Colorado and kill an elk in my presents and out of season. Watch what happens to you. Freedom has its costs. How much are you willing to pay to keep yours? You can kill two birds with one stone by becoming a volunteer instructor...if you really care!
I never claimed to be a genuis...I was only responding to magicman'ssuggestion that since education is good, we should make itmandatory, because making it mandatory is the best way to propagate that goodness to the masses.

Yes, I do think this is the land of the free...or at least it shouldbe, otherwise our national anthem is a lie. Notice how I qualified my statements by saying that in civil society there ought to be a line drawn well short of anarchy. In civil society(which I support) we do not travel to Colorado to kill elk out of season.
