My remarks were directed to Pierangelo Pedersoli, and sent to him.
No, my last post was not directed to you, Smokepole, it was generic.
Another generic comment is this:
It's simple. I believe the states and their bureaucracies exist to serve citizens-- not the other way around. Universal agreement is nothing I'd expect or even hope for, it doesn't happen in anything: politics, religion, hamster on a plane, global warming, you name it. Someone will always disagree, not always a bad thing-- otherwise we'd still be answering to the decendants of King George.
Maybe PA does have it right: if I want to hunt their flinter season, I can grab my A & H mountain rifle-- or just stay home.
The subject moots itself as far as "primitive"-- dog and spear always wins, as does bow and arrow.
It also moots itself based on area. In IL, we have no early muzzleloading season-- never have. We've also never had a "primitive" or "blackpowder" season.
And we still have counties where Buicks kill more deer than hunters do. No one needs to call Italy to discover this.
We can land a man on the moon, but we can't land a man on Rosie O'Donnell. Apparently technology has its limits?
