swanseajack 228 Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 SJ you spend a season here and think its all happy clappy?I ve been digging here for 13 seasons now and have been pulled many times ,i know fellas who are pulled several times a year and i know of 2 men convicted of badger digging while attempting to get the dog out of a fox burrow with fox dung at the mouth etc etc ,no sign of brock.There are current cases going on where the uspca are prosecuting lads for digging foxes out of what they say is a badger burrow,despite no signs of badger,and foxes actually dug and killed to prove .TM the USPCA have been following lads in PSNI helicopters who are beating cover with hounds,landing in the field etc to inspect dogs.No peelers in the countryside?My mate was stopped and present was a PSNI helicopter and 4 police cars. Now i am a member of SACS but i would like to have a printed copy of my legal rights to hunt in my country. MAKE NO MISTAKE ABOUT IT IF YOU ARE SEEN AT A FOX BURROW DIGGING FOX YOU STAND A VERY HIGH CHANCE OF THE USPCA OR THE PSNI USING THE BADGER LAW AGAINST YOU,BECAUSE. 1.THE BURDEN OF PROOF IS REVERSED ,YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOUR INNOCENCE. 2.IT CREATES HIGH PUBLICITY FOR THE USPCA. SJ I D APPRECIATE IT IF YOU DIDN T INCINUATE ON AN OPEN FORUM THAT I HAD OR HAVE INTENTIONS TO BREAK THE LAW. HOWEVER THE INTENTIONS OF STEPHEN PATRICK PHILPOTT OF ARDMORE ,NEWRY WON T STOP ME ENJOYING DIGGING. I never insinuated anything, but what I will say is this, get out hunting foxes, phone the peelers every time you see an old couple with a jack russell in the country, they WILL soon get f****d off with the phone calls, helicopter rides aren't cheap, and if any of your lads are getting done for digging badger when you are digging fox, you need better solicitors..

Guest Eamon.Mc Posted August 15, 2008 Report Share Posted August 15, 2008 SJ that's the way it is here, we have to prove we are not digging hard game, they have experts as they call them saying everything they need to secure convictions, vets in their pockets and what not. We just have to be realy careful where we dig, but we are always looking over our shoulders. Until Phillpott retires or fcuks off or whatever we're stuck with him AND HIS UNDERHAND TACTICS.

Thanks for ALL your help SJ but E Mc knows the crack as do most who hunt here and the purpose of the thread was to avoid ,hopefully ever needing a solicitor by having enough info available to avoid getting to that stage. AS HAS BEEN SAID AND MOST KNOW THE USPCA HAVE NOTHING TO DO WITH ANIMAL WELFARE,THEY WEIGH UP THE FINANCIAL GAIN OF PUBLICITY THROUGH A CASE AGAINST THE COST OF A COURT CASE AND PROSECUTE OR NOT BASED ON THIS . ANYHOW DOES ANYONE KNOW OR GIVE ME A LINK TO THE LEGALITY OF HUNTING WITH DOGS [ALL AREAS] IN N.IRELAND. BETTER SOLICITORS??THEY DON T GET BETTER THAN IS BEING USED.GOT FOLKS OFF WITH MURDER Quote Link to post
