Sorry, I have a habit of calling people out when they say something stupid. It just so happens Belo does it alot.

I havent seen anything yet, or had time to listen to the feed yet, but from what I have seen there is a hearing at 2 in state supreme court regarding the case of the guy that lost his pistol permit, etc. As soon as I see something more Ill post it here.

Strength in numbers. Its an easy concept. The numbers of hunters become low enough, and the antis are able to push their agendas through alot more easilly because there just isnt anyone with much strength pushing against them. You think that groups arent fighting to preserve your hunting rights and privilege every day? Well they are, just like the antis are out there pushing every day to take it away. If you dont recognize that its going on, you havent been paying attention. Youre starting to sound like the same people that said "HAVE THEY TAKEN YOUR GUNZ AWAY YET?" Either that or you are so greedy that you want there to be less hunters in the woods so its better for you, consequences be damned.

Did they call the cops on you for wearing a naughty tshirt in school? Its easy, you give the kid detention, suspension, something like that. Theres nothing in the article that said the kid was volitile or violent. Good lord.

Should have just killed him in the boat.

Uh, ok there bub. A kid deserves to be arrested for refusing to take a shirt off because the school rules says he cant wear it? Get real.

I just heard that Tresmond, the lawyer handling the SAFE Act lawsuit, is going to be releasing some info today that will "shake up politics in NY state regarding the safe act and civil rights". Could this be what we have been hoping for????

LOL, whatever you say Belo, the proof is already in black and white throughout this thread and others. If you cant see the problems that our sport faces, and cant recognize that the number of hunters in this state are going down, then I dont know what to tell you.

Oh good lord, you got your panties in a wad over that? I didnt make an ambiguous statement designed to trick anyone, I stated the facts. Its not my fault you didnt read what I said properly. Excuse me for throwing an idea out there that I think might be better than the system we have that IS NOT WORKING. Whether it would or not, I dont know, never claimed to be any expert, all I can do is comment based on my experience. In my experience I dont agree with your opinion on it. No reason for you to get butt hurt and start throwing out insults. And BTW, these tests do not count toward any student's GPA, including a 3rd grader.

Its not offsetting the losses overall, not even slowing it down. Now before you try and twist the meaning of what Im saying, Ill head you off this time and say (as I have many times) that I do not believe crossbow inclusion to be THE fix, I see it as a piece of the over all puzzle of stopping the bleeding. Face it, if hunter numbers dont stop the steady decline, the sport as we know it (or even similar to how we know it) is doomed. You have said that you want your kids and their kids to hunt. Well, what we have been doing has a track record of not working. In other words, its broke, we need to fix it. If crossbows can be used as a gateway for guys to see how great archery hunting can be, and lead them to further challenge themselves by picking up a vertical bow, then why not? If they can be used to help people that dont have the time to be properly proficient with a vertical bow stay involved, why not? If they can keep our older hunters in the field for a few more years, why not?

Congrats!
