Hey brothers and sisters

[Hippy]

I've been watching this site for a while. Some of it's been very useful. Decided to say hello.

I've been actively involved in peaceful and legal anti activities for five years now.

 

[Fox_Hunter1]

You must be very proud of yourself.

 

[Hippy]

do you go fox-hunting and are you proud of it?

 

[Fox_Hunter1]

I work for a fox hunt and yes i'm very proud of what i do.

 

[Hippy]

well done

 

[Hercules]

Hippy,

What is it that you have got to be proud about?

 

[Fox_Hunter1]

Thanks, So ur a sab or whatever you call yourself then?

 

[Fairynuff]

I did, I was. I dont anymore and am not proud of my past pride. Mairi. Ps, miss it but cant accept the digging etc.

 

[Hippy]

is pride a vice? i can't remember.

 

[Hercules]

''I've been actively involved in peaceful and legal anti activities for five years now''

With such significant experience, you must be a real expert.

 

[Hippy]

i don't think of myself as an expert, real or otherwise. if people disagree with me i'm happy to debate as long as you don't resort to personal abuse.

 

[Ereiam_jh]

I've been actively engaged in criminal ant-ban activities for the past 18 months.

 

[Onyxia]

..........................................................................

Indeed it is, one of the seven deadly sins too.

 

[Fox_Hunter1]

So you still haven't told me what u do out hunting?

 

[Hippy]

i don't hunt

 

[Hercules]

''i don't hunt''


You should also have added....

''and I have very little experience, knowledge or understanding of hunting.''

 

[Hippy]

please stop being so unpleasant and confrontational. i'm prepared to debate with you but see no point in bad-tempered exchanges which achieve nothing and bore everyone else.

 

[Fairynuff]

Dont be so self conceted H. This person has done nothing to merit your disdane (cant think of another word at the mo) and has not been rude to you. I knocked Sabber for his behavour and Im knocking yours. If you cant be civil then, bog off.Other pros can be pleasent so why cant you? M. Ps, we can ALL learn something from other people.

 

[Hercules]

''Other pros can be pleasent so why cant you?''

Because I don't feel like it. Less of the lectures grandma, you're boring.

 

[Fairynuff]

Im no "Grandma" in any respect. Im fed up with verbal abuse at the drop of a hat. Youre too full of yourself and show a lack of curiosity, as i said, we can all learn from one another. Why not ask her/him nicely what experience h/s has and take it from there. We cant all be experts like you. M.

 

[Fox_Hunter1]

I've been actively involved in peaceful and legal anti activities for five years now.

So how can u be involved in anti activities if you dont hunt? I'm a bit confused.

 

[Hercules]

''Why not ask her/him nicely what experience h/s has and take it from there. ''

If you paid a little more attention to detail, you would have read that 'Hippy' has been involved in anti activities for the last 5 years. That is the sum total of its experience.


''Youre too full of yourself and show a lack of curiosity''

I gave up caring whose Christmas card list I was on many years ago.

''We cant all be experts like you.''

Agreed. End of chat.

 

[Onyxia]

Let him carry on M.He is getting more and more foul- give him enough rope ..........

Hercules, read the T&Cs.
No-one comes in here for a fight, go to your local fro that.Maybe some will even think you are the big man you long to be there.

 

[Hercules]

''He is getting more and more foul''

I have not used one swear word. If you think that putting forward ideas and contradicting people in a robust and straightforward manner is foul and objectionable, unlucky.

I am sure that there is a Songs of Praise Forum on the web that you will find less foul.

 

[Hippy]

I've been actively involved in peaceful and legal anti activities for five years now.

So how can u be involved in anti activities if you dont hunt? I'm a bit confused.

i don't understand the reason for your confusion

 

[Hippy]

hercules, please stop being so unpleasant. as i said before i'm happy to debate with you but i don't like bad-mannered language or attitudes. a bit of micky-taking is harmless enough but you seem to lunge manically at anyone vaguely disagreeing with you. if you're so sure that you're right and have no interest in persuading people to agree with you i wonder why you're here at all. why not just go hunting and leave this forum to people who want to debate in a reasonably civilised manner? if you carry on being so gratuitously aggressive towards me i'll go somewhere else to make my comments. i suppose in your world that would be a victory.

 

[Fairynuff]

Well said Hippy-please dont "go else where" because of one idiot.A lot of the pros are nice people who are willing to share their beliefs with others without resorting to verbal abuse etc. You will come across many d*** h***s from both sides here but thankfully most of them disappear after a while. Mairi (an old hippy!)

 

[Hippy]

thank you Mairi. most pros (and antis) are fine, it's the small minority on both sides who cause the trouble.

 

[Hercules]

Mairi and Hippy,

You both bleat like a beaten stepchild. Stop being so pathetic and grow up.

 

[mrdarcy]

Just out of interest Hercules do you care that you do the sport you claim to love such a disservice by acting like a complete tool?

Attitudes like yours only serve to strengthen my opposition to hunting. And I'm sure I'm not the only one.

Is anyone allowed to have an opinion different to yours?
