There seems to be some belief that if one becomes "educated", acceptance soon follows. I believe that among the "educated" that some voted no and some voted yes lol. There is no tipping-point whereby after being educated, that resistance becomes futile. I own a crossbow, I would be one of the "educated"................However, I do not believe that xbows should be included in the archery season or meet the definition of archery equipment. There is uneducated and then there is ignorant. I believe that hunters who hunt with a bow, yet have never used a crossbow, are somewhat educated..........because they understand the concept of archery. Then there is the crowd who have never hunted with any type of bow. I believe that most of the votes in favor of including crossbows in the archery season.....come from this crowd. What level of education are we talking here? No, I do not have data to back that up....it just smells right.

No it wouldn't.....and words like uneducated, elitist, fearmonger, selfish, greedy.....are almost always exclusively used by those in denial.
