Hunting is banned!

Yawn! It's been banned in Scotland for a while now. Strange then that
'all' of the Scottish Hunts are still going strong and the number of
foxes
killed has er, doubled.
No doubt the English ban will also turn out to be such a resounding
success.
What a pity that your pointless campaign has resulted in twice the
suffering
for the very creatures that you are, supposedly, trying to protect.
You
and
your like sir, are not animal lovers, merely agitators.

Dont be such a sore loser.

A loser? What have I lost? Certainly not the 'pleasure' of fox hunting
since I have never been to a fox hunt nor ever felt the slightest desire
to
do so. The animal rights movement has lost, even now laws are being
formulated that will sevrely curtail their activities and
finance-gathering.
The fox hunters have lost (for the moment) but they will prevail
eventually
as the ban is an unenforceable law. And the fox? Ah yes, good old
Reynard
the 'winner', he must be feeling really pleased that he will no longer
be
hunted by hounds. No doubt he is looking forward to an agonising death
after being shot, poisoned or trapped instead. The ban is a massive
own-goal for the AR movement, don't take my word for it, remove your
blinkers and read the fox-kill figures for Scotland since the ban came
into
force there.


The AR people apparently operate by 'intuition', so facts are of no interest
to them.
