Bring Back Fox Hunting

That's exactly what it was about for some, Tony Banks for example didn't even try and hide the fact, it was all about class war for him.

whatever the reasons some people had for banning fox hunting it worked ,hunt membership is up and more foxes get killed by "other means" .What we need to do is stop the fox rescue groups from saving the buggers when they get knocked over by cars .

What we really need to do is to get the morons to stop feeding them in gardens

Once they have killed 30,000 badgers, I wonder if the TB virus will go down in the genetically bred cattle population!

I have no idea, however what i do know is that the badgers killed as part of the cull are being dispatched very quickly and without being chased across fields and then ripped to shreds by a pack of dogs whilst Neanderthals scream and laugh at their deaths and pat each other on the backs for the distress they have created for the poor fox.

Its a bit creepy when the morons wipe the fox's blood on the faces of the newbies first hunt.

I am a country born lad and have always hated any killing of animals. It's the human race which is the pest.

Some idiots don't think like you, people who go hunting like this need to be hunted and ripped a part by a dog, I would cheer that and give the dog a treat.

I agree, there's a woman who lives across the road from me feeds the foxes by leaving them food in the back garden. When I come in from work in the early hours I often see 1/2 foxes crossing the street nipping down other residents gardens.

I've asked her on many occasions to stop feeding them as they're a hunting animal and will find food anywhere.

These "urban" fox attacks have nothing to do with the fox hunting ban.

When will people on this site be able to differentiate between the two?

There are two big questions on the subject of the culling of badgers and fox hunting (and yes, the whingers back).

On the badger front, these badgers pass on diseases to cattle, which goes onto the food chain - l agree within reason.

On the fox hunting - this l believe should be left to the farming world. They know what is happening in their world and should be allowed to do it. Foxes are vermin to me. And wasn't there a newspaper recently saying that a fox tried to kill a dog.

It should be left to the countryside to deal with.

The point with foxhunting for me is that the legislation as it stands is badly thought out, badly worded, and very very tough to enforce....

Nice line Heero but the Cats line is not correct strictly speaking:

TB incidence is low in cats and dogs. Because bovine TB is a zoonotic disease (ie it can be spread from animal to human), where TB in pets is disclosed, AHVLA or private vets will inform the Local Health Authority so that any risks to human contacts can be investigated.

Treatment of TB infected pets is not recommended because of the risk this presents of transmitting the disease to other animals and/or the pet’s owners.

AHVLA will undertake a pathological examination and bacteriological culture from the animal – the costs of this will be met by Defra. If notification of a positive culture comes from a private or Public Health Laboratory Service laboratory, they are encouraged to submit samples to AHVLA.

If TB is reported in a farm cat or dog, AHVLA will instigate TB testing of any cattle on the farm and other, potentially exposed cattle, on neighbouring premises.

To me its the way in which they are killed, also they don't commit as much trouble as humans do but if you killed a human with a dog ripping it apart then you'd be done for murder because thats what fox hunting is MURDER, if I was to ever run in to a hunting back the next stop for would be court for GBH.
Please can someone tell me whats fun about watching an animal get ripped apart but no one pro fox hunting will all you'll get is but they need to be controlled, if they need to be controlled then do it without violence and having a poor animal suffer for you enjoyment Sick *******s the lot of them.

You are incorrect. "Murder" is the killing of one human by another, contrary to common law. The term does not, and has never, applied to the killing of any animal by a human.

So how do we look at " killing an animal for sport and enjoyment " thats what fox hunting is all about. They chase a defenseless animal to the point it can not run any further. They set a pack of dogs on it and get a perverse sense of enjoyment and maybe even a little bit of a lift somewhere from watching that killing. Having then ripped that defenseless animal to pieces they then pat each other on the back for having killed a defenseless animal, then smear the blood of that animal on the faces of any children they allowed to watch that killing of a defenseless animal, and all this in the name of SPORT .

Its getting to the point but not just yet where i will start to post links to the websites and videos showing the hunt members jumping and down, shouting obscenities at any anti hunt supporters nearby whilst also laughing at them as they carry out the killing of these defenseless animals. I think those people who have not seen what these animals who call themselves human do as they kill need to see it.
