Angry Why DO The Toffs Think THey Are Above The Law??

Why do they think they can hunt even though it's illegal!!!???

They are the first to jump up and down if a union goes on strike and damages one of their businesses!!

I'll not post photo's of foxes getting killed ...... you can google for those yourself, I'm assuming that why my last post got deleted?

I propose that we throw the Huntsmen into prison for 4 weeks ..... should be interesting, I wonder what the inmates would make of them??

Big Gay Billy who looks after the showers might want them to feel what a fox feels like as it is chased down and terrified!!

Pete

Just to correct you Píssy. I actually saw on the main page, your name on another post with the same title as your first thread today.

That was enough for me to post a without reading the content.

So to clarify for a self important, egotystical nobody as yourself, I did open the thread, I never read it, I certainly never thought of a response, they are quite automatic where your name is connected, but I did post the response.

Oh and your constant whining about behaviour not being normal to everybody.

Sorry to burst your bubble.

The hunters knew Labour would only 'ban' hunting to keep the public happy, but not enforce the ban. They can pretty much carry on as normal in many parts, as the Police are too busy out on the roads raising revenue for Gordon Brown

Hopefully we'll get a government in oneday who keep their promises..

As valid as this thread might seem to you SiDHEad, that isn't the point. Píssy opened another thread earlier, similar but with a lot more political bóllocks and with pictures and that was vaped. Maybe you weren't aware of that?

The was merely a response to him reposting until he gets his way, you know, a bit like a child would.

My response had nothing to do with the animals, I suppose you come along too late to understand it like UB did.

As for looking a ****, don't you as an adult male drive a S2000?

I rest my case.

If the Gov is so concerned about animal welfare why do they still allow 30 million chickens to live in a cage on an area the size of a sheet of A4 paper.

The majority of people who complain about hunting are the very same that eat their eggs from battery hens who know bugger all about life in the countryside.

They also still allow halal meat FFS Thats where animals killed by having their throats cut and bled to death, rather than using more modern and far more humane techniques.

I thought it was only hunting with dogs that was made illegal? I assume they are still doing it, after all, what is the penalty, and I'm sure there are grey areas and loopholes aplenty.

I've always thought there are much more urgent issues than whether or not a bunch of wannabe lords tear over the country side after a fox. I'd rather they didn't kill an outnumbered animal, and I do like animals, but I don't see why people get so wound up about this issue, personally.......

Surely the point of this forum is everyone is allowed to express their opinions, no matter what they may be?

I think that hunters should direct their attention; and their hounds, towards pikeys. Theyre a far more serious threat to the countrysides well-being..... and theyre legal to hunt with dags too!

This is allowed for the same reasons that the people who do this allowed to roam the streets of London waving placards inciting murder and calling for acts of terrorism.

They are quite simply above the law because of their religion.

FFS, have you ever seen how McDonalds kill their cows? Or how KFC breed and kill their "chickens"? Halal is not a nice method, although it is for religious reasons, where as the west use inhumane methods to keep costs down. When you're eating your next bit of fast food, think about the cow hanging from one hoof, having been shot in the skull with a bolt and having it's limbs carved off whilst more likely to still be alive than dead.

Never seen it first hand. Why? Have you? I have read Fast Food Nation though so I am in possession of the facts, and I agree with you. I wouldn't touch fast food or so called 'ready meals' with a barge pole. I also rarely eat red meat or poultry.

However just because one practice may be abhorrent doesn't mean the other isn't.

Pete,

The answer is "Because they can", and that suits most people, me included, just fine. People act illegally, be it speeding, fraudulently claiming benefit, driving an Impreza when they have a bus pass etc etc

One can only hope those stupid ******* in Whitehall realise that when a law makes absolutely no sense whatsoever, those affected by it will exercise their right to ignore it.

The principle is the same as doing more than 70 on the motorway. It's illegal, but frankly it's outdated and draconian and this is why it is ignored.

And before the "what about the foxes" outcry comes. Who cares about a few foxes? I see more on the roadside having been run over, than may "accidently" get killed by local hunts

Matt

So they're not "above the law because of their religion" after all??????

They certainly seem to be. I'm sure that if led an animal into the street to the nearest drain and slit it's throat and watched it bleed to death I would be prosecuted.

Its been law in Scotland for a while now Matt.

And us Scots appear to have been able to deal with it.

The difference is that the Scottish "toffs" that hunt appear to realise that having living creatures scared half to death and then torn to pieces and then using the bits that are left to mark each other with blood is, in a civilised society, not really on.

Personally, I think the hunt sabateurs should pick off the odd huntsman or woman with high velocity rifles rather than running around the countryside, that would make it a bit more interesting

And whilst I may work in the city, I've lived in and around the countryside my whole life, so before anyone says I don't know what its like, I can assure you I do

Typical nouveaux riche. Over-opinionated and under-informed. Simply bubbling with reasons for why the world should take you or your poxy beliefs seriously. The type who like to own animals like they would wear accessories. Fluffy cats to make up for your emotional shortcomings or big dogs to fill that gap where your family jewels should hang.

The audacity. How ******* dare you.

Looney Labour should ban KFC.

KFC kills upwards of 800 million birds EVERY year!
