WILF 47,344 Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) Fcuk legally. Most land owners would turn there land into a wasteland if there was enough profit in it. Like foxdroppers land owner only interested in the animals that there is profit in, and would happily see it void of hares and I'm sure anything else that you can't strap a pound sign on to.Ireland as you know is a grassed based system (as they call it) utililised almost exclusively for cattle.......there's a zillion f***ing hares and leverrets getting chopped to bits every year in silage season.So what's the trade off?.......to a farmer his farm IS money......

BGD 6,436 Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 The law locks up the man or woman Who steals the goose off the common But leaves the greater villain loose Who steals the common from the goose. The law demands that we atone When we take things we do not own But leaves the lords and ladies fine Who takes things that are yours and mine. 2 Quote Link to post

jiggy 3,209 Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Going slightly off topic but in an effort to illustrate how people take a different slant on things. On several of the Rivers in this country, associations, clubs and landowners are making serious financial investment and carrying out major improvements to try and improve dwindling migratory fish stocks. You then have various boat and canoeing associations who state that they have an absolute right of access to the water at any time including spawning time. Now the one group financially invests in the River and Licences and the other group makes little or indeed no financial contribution. Neither group accepts the other groups point of view, but who is in fact right? Returning to this subject, someone going on another persons land in order to take birds, Deer etc for the sport or financial gain..................is different?...................why is it? Because my dogs are part of the family pet/worker and when he walks into another persons property he's still mine pheasants deer and other wild animals are wild no matter who looks after them they are wild animals unless you have a deer in your garden named lucky People seem to misunderstand what exactly belongs to who in the eye's of the Law. Wild animals do not belong to anyone, correct. But the right to hunt them does! When you kill a deer etc without permission you have taken that opportunity from the lawful owner of the sporting rights. That person may or may not also have invested resources into that wild stock to improve/increase it, meaning what is there is a direct result of their efforts. Thems a' the facts, now argue amongst ya selves. LOL Or paid money to decrease it. What's the common denominator (MONEY) Quote Link to post

Sporting rights ARE property in law. It's that simple folks. You lot can dream up whatever laws you like, you can't demand the protection of property law for your own property while expecting to not be held accountable by it when taking others property. By all means live in the wild west but don't come complaining when the sheriff lynches ya. 5 Quote Link to post

What's the common denominator (MONEY) ......... you can't demand the protection of property law for your own property while expecting to not be held accountable by it when taking others property. A lot of people seem to recognise and quote 'the law' when it suits them, for example that Game is wild, albeit it has in some instances, been purchased and raised...Pheasants, Partridge etc. Whilst, when it suits them, they ignore other Laws. There have been several mentions of it almost being a Class thing - that these regulations are there to protect the wealthy possibly Upper Class. That may be true when the laws were introduced in the 1800's but surely that is not the case today, particularly when so many 'working class' people derive great pleasure from their involvement in country sports at great expense to themselves.

dogmandont 9,846 Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Yip like you said born the rights to shoot the deer, fcuk all else not the deer, not the land, nothing. But he still came on here giving it the big one. If I'm honest I agree with 99% of the sensible comments on this thread. It's just I think fd is a complete bellend and a cap duffer. He has previous form for throwing about threats on here. Quote Link to post

I wouldn't poach other people's ground but I'd hold back on calling the police on others when they were poaching ground that I had permission on. How many lads can honestly say that everything they do is to the letter of the law. If your own house isn't in order it might just bite you on the arse when they come looking for payback.
