Obviously crossbows can be deadly as can a lot of things in the wrong hands. If they are going to do anything then maybe licencing is the best policy. But look at how many illegal guns are out on the streets, converted replicas, converted blank firers. Them zip guns or pipe guns or them plungers in a tube, I remember a lad having one of them 30 years ago when digging. A lot of household implements can be used as a murder weapon.
