Ok, I was cleaning this morning in the library at college when I picked up a local newspaper from yesterday and it sent that the bill for allowing rifle hunting is some NY counties, including mine, was sent to Pataki's office for him to either sign or veto. The thing I'm really annoyed about is the fact that they said NY deer numbers are high in NY state and rifles will allow more deer to be harvested/more hunters to hunt, blah blah blah. Well I got one of those DMP/deer mailings in the mail the other day; you know the one with the WMU's and your chances of getting a DMP in it? Well my WMU is listed as having no chance of a second DMP and a 1/3-2/3 chance of a person to get 1 DMP.....None of this makes sense that they either say deer numbers are too high or deer numbers are low. Just because one county has too high or too low a deer population doesn't mean every county is like that. Guys, am I just nuts or what? I still feel that where I live, rifles will be dangerous, especially in the hands of our neighbors,lol, and now hunters can shoot at deer across a field. I think the deer populations will get messed up even more. Just my opinion I guess..
