RE: crossbows in new york
I keep hearing all these arguments about letting handicapped people hunt with a crossbow.
Well, is anybody concerned about the possibility that some of these people might get hurt or killed trying to climb into or out of a tree stand?
After all, hunting on the ground is a challenge.
Just a thought--after all, it is government that requires all kinds of safety devices on things like lawnmowers to protect people who cannot use things as they were intended. It is government who requires the use of seat belts and motorcycle helmets. It is government who is making laws against smokers. It is government who steps in to protect people from themselves. Maybe it is better if handicapped people stay out of trees. Perhaps government should make that decision too.
