weasle 1,119 Posted February 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 YES iagree 100% the problem is this country is so political correct Untill they grow some balls and get out there,hunting will remain banned.The longer its banned the harder it will be to overturn.

woodchip 2 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 ok so how do we do this any ideas???????????? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
woodchip 2 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 i think programms like river cottage have high lighted the fact that not all of us are blood thirsty killers and the conservation and pest control we carrie out but there needs to be more done just not sure what.

woodchip 2 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 i wonder if a regular hunting / shooting tv show like the fishing programms that are on sky might help but its back to the political correctness again Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rant over If people feel so strongly about it then why not do something? why not organise marches to show that there are sufficent people still wanting a repeal, theres no point moaning about the countryside alliance and doing nothing! If there were marches like when they were putting the ban in place I would attend and support it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I dont hunt with dogs and only shoot at the moment but would'nt mind getting into it in the future but if there was an event or anything that I could support then I would, it's clear to me they are only bothered about fox hunting clubs there really needs to be something for the average dog man or both.

klashnekoff 3 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Nothing for your lurcher,terrier or ferreters! If you shoot pheasants or go hunting on horseback then your in! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
lamaha 7 Posted February 11, 2011 Report Share Posted February 11, 2011 Its public attitude, and politicians today are sh*t scared of rocking the boat for the majority of their voters. I see it every day. . . ah look at the cute, furry squirrel holding its nuts in its hands . . . . . until it gets into their loft and partys, then its "get the bast*rd thing out, i don't care how you do it!" Meat hasn't come from a living animal its come from tesco, the public have lost touch with realities in life and politicians have to toe the line. Lets face it who in politics today is going to say "We got the hunting bill wrong, lets do a u turn!". Quote Link to post Share on other sites
