Can you then provide "evidence" of where you have heard about the blinkers? I know nothing of this. Little Roodolphrider - the same question to you - would you call this an accident if a sab was on the horse and ran over the huntsman, and didnt stop? Come on people, I'd have a hell of a lot more...
She in fact suffered 7 broken ribs, sorry Alec. In hospital for 3 weeks - http://www.northdevonjournal.co.uk/VIDEO-shows-hunt-saboteur-knocked-seriously/story-26001234-detail/story.html
I doubt very much that somebody who had to be airlifted to hospital could "go home on the same day"...
OK, so you think she "put" herself there willingly to be ran over - potentially killed if the horse had kicked her in the head? She had something like 6 broken ribs!! You think she volunteered to do that - that is idiotic! I'm sorry, but if we were on any other subject, and you saw this video, I...
It is very telling that none of the other posters have condemned this behaviour, instead turning it into a bit of a "joke". As someone said, hunting doesnt need any help to bring itself down, it does that itself. This was wrong - plain and simple. If a sab did this to somebody.... that would...
Have any of you actually seen the video? I did and it is pretty awful - the hunt rider rode straight at this lady who was just standing there, ran her down and didnt even stop? If this was in any other situation, would you find this acceptable???
I would absolutely love to drag hunt, def one of my bucket list things but also am definitely not pro hunt. I have always wondered, are drag hunts full of pro hunters or is it mostly people who dont wish to hunt live quarry?
I admire you CP Trayes for your well written posts which always counter Alec's ridiculous statements! I wouldnt be surprised if he came from a hunting family where it has been so engrained into him from childhood that he cannot see anything outside of his very naive views. Not everyone thinks...
I also totally agree CP Trayes. That is a very good point re the schoolboy. Isnt it bizarre how some things are "acceptable" and the same thing, done by someone else isnt. It makes me wonder - have most pro hunters on here grown up with hunting, as a way of life - if so it must be so engrained...
The level of ignorance displayed by some pro hunt people on here is shocking!! Is Alec for real or just a consistent troll on here, belittling/mocking anyone who does not share his opinion!
When defending fox hunting, the answer is ALWAYS something along the lines of the fact that they "need" to be controlled. They either need controlling or they dont... the evidence in this video is stacked up against you and yet not one pro has condemned the actions, even when the evidence is...

This makes an absolute mockery of the "pest control" claims, and the MFA are so far refusing to make comment. Opinions?
Alec it's funny (and oh so predictable) how you are now so anti RSPCA, does it have anything to do with the Heythrop prosecution by any chance? Or something else?! I think the majority of people who support the RSPCA would be anti hunting, after all it is an animal welfare organisation, yes it...
