Stag hunting ban in Ireland

Yes, a real tragedy. I guess the Irish will have to do what we have done in England - keep the flame of liberty burning until the ignorant and prejudiced politicians are voted out and more enlightened times return..
 
Im not actually a fan of any hunting other than drag hunting(not wanting to start a debate though lol) but I can see how it is a deep seated tradition with so many and therefore a real blow to their culture so to speak xx
 
Did anyone follow the article pointed to and read how they hunted stag in Ireland?

"The Ward Union hunts a "carted stag", meaning they release and recapture unharmed deer bred in captivity by themselves in the course of the day's hunting. "

So they breed deer, put them in a lorry and drive them to where they want to "hunt" them, release them, chase them all day, catch them, put them back in a lorry and drive them home again?

Un-be-lievable!
