sign this petition

I think the petition would have more credence if the grammar was correct.

"They are" or "they're" not "their throwing down the drain"
"Would HAVE done" not "would OF done" [that one really winds me up]
Those dogs" not "them dogs"
"cos"??? What ever happened to BECAUSE???

Us country people shall not stand for the ban on fox hunting 2004. We want it lifted. It should be lifted because; it is hundreds of years of culture 'their' throwing down down the drain. Number 1: The hunting yards are been shut down, the horses are been put down and people are losing jobs who have been in aspect of the world for as long as they can remember in some cases. Some hunts are having to put 30% more hounds down now than they usually would of done, there's no point feeding them when they can't do their jobs. There's hundreds of years of breeding thats been put in them dogs and have the correct characteristics to hunt. So please everyone sign this petition and lift the ban cos us country people are strong and fight for our culture and our livelihoods

I applaud the sentiment and am a member of the Countryside Alliance but PLEASE get your English grammar correct and perhaps THEY might take some notice!

It is "being" put down, not been.
As Forester said the sentiment may be admirable, but if you are going to submit an official petition please make sure that it is gramatically correct and not riddled with spelling mistakes...

Nope I wont sign. Please dont say such a sweeping statement such as "us country people....." because Im VERY much a country person but do NOT agree with hunting! It irritates the hell out of me when people assume every country person agrees with it! As far as I am concerned, it is NOT part of my culture!! So dont say such a thing!!!
 
Well, my Sherlock Holmes in me has read your three posts.... And I say you're the author of that petition! lol

Just teasing, but your last two posts reponding to the grammar have a slight taste of the petition grammar.

So let me get this straight the people for Hunting want that Fox ripped apart by the dogs?
