Default RE: please tell me just one negative to crossbows

You 3 are something... you have won 1 person over, and strengthened the anti-crossbow resolve of dozens.
the seeds of reason have been planted and after all, 90 pages and I still haven't seen a single negative to allowing crossbows

They are not allowed now, for lots of very good reasons,
ok, time top stop lying. I mean, really - there ARE NO GOOD REASONS to not allow crossbows. None. nada. zip. they don't exist

At best, compounds, they are bow-like, but they aren't the same .. so they get lumped outside with the rest of the non-archery gear.

Can that not be said and have some truth to it ? After all, compounds are nothing really like recurve/longbows at all, are they ? They aren't drawn the same, they don't have the same way to generate the energy to propel the arrow, one has high let off, the other no letoff, compounds have sights, multiple cables, cams/pulleys - they are bowlike but NOT bows !

WE agree on that - right ?
