> Do you think you need a special license for that?
Crossbows and bows do need a license where I live. You can use them only on a special target practice place. The law also regulates how you should transport the bows to your home (you have to unhook its string). The license for a bow requires a training course and everyone can take those. Guns are obviously much more restricted.
I believe that is fine. I understand that this might sound crazy to someone who has grown up being able to buy guns at the grocery store. To me that sounds crazy.
