A Drag hunt that I've been out with a few times had to change its venue this weekend due to the proprietors of said venue being 'threatened with violence' by sabs. I can understand that they would feel intimidated but it's a pity that the bullies effectively won. And some comments on the facebook page showed that quite a few people had not the faintest idea what drag hunting was.
I looked at one of the sabs' group pages on facebook and I couldn't believe the level of vitriol on there, it actually took my breath away. It seems that it is a very common tactic to target pubs or other venues where hunts (including established Drag hunts) are parking and issue threats, anything from bad reviews to violence.
I didn't actually acquire a horse until post-ban so I have no experience of hunting or sab activity before then - but was it this bad/worse than this pre-ban? And does anyone think it's getting worse now?
