I would root for Darwinism to take root and lessen the number of idiots, but Newyorkistan needs their license and sale tax monies. I even wear blaze orange fleece gloves and my wife knitted me an orange scarf.

Orange makes a world of difference in the woods. Even in lower light around dusk. I'm lucky to hunt on private land and know the people I hunt with. We always know where the others are gonna be hunting. If I did hunt public land I would be in as much orange as I could.

Also I carry a head lamp. Always on when walking even in the light. It does show enough to alert others as long as you are walking towards them when light out.

Once deer season starts here I always wear a orange vest and hat. One day when I was visiting the "across the street nursery" looking for some white pines to transplant I noticed some hunters across a 150 yd cove and realized I had a white hat on. You never saw something white get thrown on the ground so fast. From then on, the white hats are put away during the fall...

NY doesn't require it due to the political influence of the mafia.

With mandatory orange it's harder to make those mob hits look like an accident.
