It would be tough convincing folks in the Bronx that Hunter Education should be a required subject. How about East LA? What right should we have to require it in any school system? This is not mandated as a required subject. As much as I am for hunter safety programs, I would be against it being put into our school systems on a national basis. If those schools in rural America voted to install it and make it part of the shool learning process, then that would be the exception to the rule.

Making it available as an option would be in the best interest of everyone...
