The Further Decline of the Hunting Fraternity...

[Blairite]

I am glad to see since my last visit here, that hunting with hounds seems to be very much on the decline. The Hunting Fraternity still struggle to come to terms with the fact. But it is plain for all to see.

We should realise by now that the Nature of the BEAST never changes where the Hunting Fraternity are concerned.

I noted with interest that the latest issue of Horse&Hound magazine had very little content as regards hunting. I suspect that is because there is very little to put in it these days.

Tally ho!

Or maybe because it's summer and noone (bar the minkhounds) are actually hunting at the moment.twat

A few weeks and you come autumn hunting if you fancy LB...see the support first hand then... :smirk:

 

[Tinkerbee]

All quiet here atm....what with it being out of season and all...

though when i get back home will be doing some more "work" with the terriers

and come autumn we will all be out again :grin:

 

[severnmiles]

Can I join you TB?

Ireland, hunting is still legal, wolfdogs are legal and immigration is tighter... What am I still doing here? LOL

 

[Tinkerbee]

Course ya can

hell, we can do almost anything we like

 

[Chumsmum]

Roll on Autumn!!

 

[kirstyhen]

What was the report on the Peterborough Festival of Hunting about if alls quiet on the hunting front!? Have to say boxing day at my hunt was so quiet, only a hundred or so horses and far more on foot.... Cant wait for autumn, with all this wet weather my boy thinks he should be out already!!! :grin:

 

[oakash]

Ha-ha, Blairite! I think thou jests!

What I think you mean is that the anti-hunting case is on its last legs, folded due to overwhelming evidence that it was based only on prejudice and bigotry! Like your name, it is out of date and very 'yesterday'. Haven't you heard that old GB may even overturn the stupid Hunting Act 2004 himself?

 

[RunToEarth]

I said it right from the day it was banned- I give it 5years- if that, before the government finally pulls the finger out, and turns its eye to terrorists, taxation and relevant points instead of crusing the coutry to ask our masters if we are within the law, to which of course the answer will always remain yes sir, until sir doesnt care anymore.

 

[wurzel]

I think you are right Blairite.

I will bear it in mind whilst cubbing next month.

Are you another Londoner by any chance?

 

[soggy]

Come come Adge surely you remember Blairite and his many guises from off the old BBC Science and Nature forums along with his alter ego Badgerbanger.

He lives in Blackheath SE London and claims to be Mrs Becketts toyboy.

Well, well, I see we have another convicted criminal within the hunting brigade. Convicted yesterday (30-07-07) at Prestatyn Magistrates Court, North Wales. These people who break the law will pay the penalty and those who think they are above the law, are not. Congratulations to the Police Officer involved in bringing this criminal to justice. It is not the first time hunt members, hunt supporters, terriermen and others involved in fieldsports have been convicted in the courts of offences against wildlife ( as well as serious assaults against hunt monitors) in the countryside. The Hunting Act of 2004 is now starting to yield fruit with other convictions secured recently. One can only look forward to the start of the cub-hunting season with glee at the thought of other hunting fraternity members being brought before the courts and successfully prosecuted for acts of cruelty against our wildlife. I really do have to laugh at the thought of these hunt supporters, members being classed as "pillars of society" when some of them have now been convicted in the courts and have criminal records.

Long live the Hunting Act of 2004 and let's hope more abusers of of our wildlife are convicted in the courts.

[wurzel]

Yes the hunting act of 2004 is certainly effective.

2004 was it?

And here we are in 2007 and how many members of hunts have been convicted ?

Three ?

Four ?

And have any of those jail birds stopped hunting?

They have not have they ?

Yes, we are hound exercising and cubbing soon.

I look forward to my arrest and subsequent fine of what? An average days pay?

I am beside myself with terror !!!!

 

[wrighty]

Small victories.
First there was the ban, then the odd conviction and then who knows.

Tom, I've said this to others who brag about breaking the law, if you're not worried about it, send me your name, address and when you're planning to do it and I will do my best to get down and help the police with thier enquiries.

 

[soggy]

Is it actually a criminal conviction.?

I don't think it is. Its a contravention of an ACT not a crime.

I'm sure one of the sites legal wizards could shed some light on the matter.

As Tom has said £260-00 inclusive of costs. Bet the F&D raised that in about 30mins of passing the hat around.

Hell I'll even send the hunt sec a cheque to pass on to the fund. I've done the same for the only 3 prior unfortunates.

 

[wrighty]

Yes, he went against the Act, which is against the law (A crime), he admitted guilt therefore guilty of that crime therefore a criminal conviction.
It is not an arrestable offence so he cannot be arrested by members of the public unless he threatened or attacted someone while breaking the law.

 

[soggy]

Tom, I've said this to others who brag about breaking the law, if you're not worried about it, send me your name, address and when you're planning to do it and I will do my best to get down and help the police with thier enquiries.

As has been often found Wrighty!

You best just ain't good enough.
How many times has Giles been out chasing deer with his dogs in the full knowledge of just about everyman and his dog. yet still no sign of any case against him.

Words with out deeds are just cheap words, and carry no value at the end of the day. Actions and actions alone speak volumes, and are worth a fortune in gold.

So come on its time to divi up. )

 

[soggy]

Wrighty

I think your wrong on both counts. But I'm no legal beagle. and I'm guessing neither are you.

 

[wrighty]

Giles? Giles Bradshaw?
I didn't know Tom and Giles were the same person, I've already tried to get his details but heard nothing.

Like I posted on his YouTube vids, I actually thanked him for making hunt supporters look that little bit stranger with his failed attempts at getting support for his e-petitions.

 

[soggy]

Tom and Giles are not the same person. As I suspected you're not that well informed.

Giles makes no secret of his location, he has even published dates and times when he will be in the act so to speak.

Tom, grand fellow that he is, makes no secret of his local either. Apparently he's pretty hard to miss being a big fella as well.

So why not gather up your bed of nails and have a trip down to the West Country, Stag hunting and cubbing should provide you with all the evidence you require. Details of the meet venues are even published in the local press I believe.

Or are you just full of empty words?

Silly question really. Of course you are!

 

[wrighty]

I am not that well informed as it was you that mentioned Giles' name while I was asking Tom for details, as I said I didn't know Tom was Giles and now I know he isn't.

The problem with Giles is that he says one thing in chatrooms and on forums and then others in the press, one is harder to prove identity than the other.
I recall him saying he doesn't hunt, just scares them off his land with his 4 dogs.
He says he is above the law but tries to hide his face when just talking about breaking the law on YouTube.
He says he will give people his address but as far as I knoew he hasn't sent to anyone, I know for a fact he hasn't sent it to me.

"gather up your bed of nails "
I must be a bit slow, I don't own a bed of nails.

 

[Tinkerbee]

Y'all welcome to come out hunting with me this august :grin:

all legal though In good old norn iron.

the one thing our "country" can do well....

 

[severnmiles]

[Fox_Hunter1]

[severnmiles]

I wouldnt go out with the Ledbury Wrighty, the terriermen their are some crazy mofos!lol

What you telling him that for? Should be encouraging him :smirk:

 

[wrighty]

Its good to see that you're thinly hiding hints about violence/warnings towards me.
It is lucky I believe in pasive resistance towards violence, until it becomes dangerous, then I use everything within the law to protect myself and others.

 

[wurzel]

Send you my name?

how?

 

[wurzel]

Ooooh you sound a bit tasty !!!

i don't think I am allowed to give out my actual address, nudge nudge, wink wink !!

But I can frequently be found at

Spangate Farm
