Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
Two of them stories go back to 2002 :rolleyes: Also I'm sure that the reports on knife crime that outweigh the countryside killers reports by a few thousand percent doesn;t mean that every child is a knife weilding maniac..
Does make me laugh when people bring up news reports to prove a theory when it's obvious that the news only reports a small percentage of a one sided viewpoint :D |

Personally if people want to go fox hunting in red coats I see no reason to interfere.I saw no reason to ban the hunts because the percentage of foxes killed was minimal.I thought that those who voted against it did so for reasons of class or because they were totally fluffy about foxes,refusing to see them as vermin because they were not in anyway realistic about the plight of foxes as predators in the food chain that are in danger of over population in certain areas. |

Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
I said this at the time the ban came in, I live in London, but to me the countryside is better known to tha farmer, so therefore they should be allowed to shoot foxes that are on the land to protect livestock, and also fox hunts has been part of country life for decades - and l don't live anywhere near the countryside.

Fox hunting goes back centuries, and the countryside belongs to the farmers so leave it up to them.

Land-owning and having serfs goes back centuries, and the countryside belongs to the landed gentry, so leave it up to them. Plague, rickets, high percentages of children dying under the age of five goes back for centuries, so let's continue that tradition. Slavery, poorhouses, lack of proper sanitation, etc, etc, yaddy yaddy yah. I am not bothered about fox hunting, but I am bothered about very poorly thought out propositions.;) And on the point of foxy-loxy, an (imho) amusing advert - Auchtermuchty |
Re: Bring Back Fox Hunting
I used to work for a company that delivered to many addresses in the countryside, l have seen foxes and what they do, Farmers, wether they are snooty people or not, have a duty to protect there animals, as it is there livelyhood. In regards to fox hunts l had to face a blockaide of silly people blocking a fox hunt, in Ledbury, Glos, and was given police protection to get through, I cannot believe that people will get so heated up about a vermin problem that needs to be cut, foxes give a nasty bite.

Depends on the rat surely?
Lew's rats are clean and safe to handle.Sewer rats and the usual wild ones are a source of disease and as such are vermin especially at the rate that they breed in the wild. |
