Anyone know of any hunts going out on Saturday?

Starry,

Do not argue with MYOB as although only 17 years old he knows everything about everything and cannot be wrong.

Heh. What I wouldn't give to be young and know it all!


MYOB - none of your business really. And yes I am definitely Irish. Will be over for a Leeds friendly in March if you wanted to meet me and my passport and driving license and whatever else, just to be sure.

I am joining the Ape Hunt in sussex this weekend where wil be bouncing along Brighton streets on our Spacehoppers looking for Kev the Ape and when we find him we will cut him to pieces and smear his blood over the faces of Woolworths customers.

No need to interogate you... just would be shocked to find someone Irish thats pro-hunt, if you are pro-hunt that is.

I can think of plenty people back home in Ireland that hunt, or are pro-hunting.

However, very few of them are in east Donegal... or anywhere far away from the edges of the Pale, that is.

And the Guinness family, for example, have their castle just within the boundaries of the Pale, for instance...

And I know of nobody who's publically pro-hunt and know of no active hunts (thankfully).

If I did know of an active hunt, I'd be ever so tempted to chase them across the fields on a quadbike with a klaxon and a shotgun.

i am a bit lost here at the moment this thread was about Richie Morris looking to attend a hunt on saturday because he does not want to see the albion play (might be his love of mcgammon)

and fancied watching hounds hunt down and kill a poor defencless animal which knows know better (a bit like kev the ape and his threads)

and now we are talking about the black liqiud.

and a 17 year old running for prime minister as he knows so much at this age o to be young again.

so richie are you off to a hunt

Personally, I would'nt say no if I was offered to join in on a hunt, the reason being is that I'd like a common frame of reference from both parties before making an opinion. I'm not saying I'd enjoy it, I probably wouldn't but it is hard to vote against something when you are ignorant on the other side of the arguement.

I thought that was just an IRISH thing?



























What?

That's lovely, the fresh air and being out doors and away from your many computers will probably do you some good.

PS - if you really wanted to you could find an active hunt in Ireland and do as you wish.

Can't quite get my head around the pro-hunters' arguments, to be honest.

1) It's a British tradition going back hundreds of years.
Well so is slavery, witch-ducking, Royal-inbreeding, and chopping off the heads of religious dissidents before mounting them on spikes across London Bridge, but that doesn't necessarily mean they have a place in 2005 society.

2) It's not about the killing, it's the thrill of the chase.
So go drag hunting then (I was disappointed when I found out what drag hunting really was, I had a hilarious vision in my mind which was completely ruined).

3) Thousands will lose their jobs when its banned.
Funny, I didn't see all you green welly types queuing to back up the miners, or the steelworkers, or the Rover car workers, when they all lost their jobs....

4) The dogs will all have to be killed
What, now you're moaning about cruelty to animals??!

5) Its a free society, we shall do what we want
Surely if you're going to choose which laws you obey, the rest of us can do the same? I think I'll go out and burgle a few houses while you're all snorting around the hillsides on the back of King William Bohemian Rhapsody In Emerald III.

Well said edna, my views exactly, Good that this sort of thing is being stopped.

 

[Cian]

Well, I'd prefer not to be imprisoned for shooting a fat anglo (I don't even know a non-Anglo Irish who *owns* a horse here, let alone hunts with it) and his horse, so I might just find one and let down all the tyres on their jeep/horsebox whilst they're in getting mashed after the hunt...

Can't tell whether this is sarcastic or not..

 

[beorhthelm]

shame that some peopple dont get it yet, since the anti-hunt legislation is under review/appeal, it isnt yet enforceable.

And that, as it stands it the most stupidly inept piece of legislation to have been fought so hard over. One of the primary reasons many lords opposed it was because it was so shit and couldnt be enforced - they where trying to say go back and do it again. But no, the Government invoked the parliment act in an attempt to save face.

If they had *really* wanted to ban hunting, they could have done a much better job by establishing Foxes as protected speices and set up a controlled cull to prevent the potential for over population.

You obviously haven't met my annoying, tedious, penniless but actively pro-hunting step sister. She's as thick as pig shit.
