Not sure, I only met ordinary Inuits last time I was in Alaska.

So if we say a prayer at the foxes death it is more acceptable?

Go on RS, how do they kill the lovely birdies because to me that looked pretty darn stressful for the birdie, lots of fluttering and noise too.

If you did, you would delight and inspire me.

"Go on RS, how do they kill the lovely birdies because to me that looked pretty darn stressful for the birdie, lots of fluttering and noise too. "

Who killing the birdies, the foxes or the bushmen ?

"Nothing is wasted and nothing is killed just for sport. "

Sounds like Stag Hunting !!

 

[severnmiles]

The bushmen.

Very true....what a sacralidge that would be to waste good venison!

 

[countess]

Do you not think there are far more important things to argue about. As for any of us that hunt do you not know that "foxhunting" IS NOW ILLEGAL and we only follow a trail or take the pack on exercise. If we need to kill anything it is flushed with 2 hounds to guns and shot DEAD. So there really is no need for any antis anymore yippeee!!!!!!

 

[Tinkerbee]

Oh yes....its all done legally nowadays

TBH, I dont know. But I'm happy that they kill and eat birds if the alternative is to go hungry.

 

[southgate1975]

"So if we say a prayer at the foxes death it is more acceptable?"

P.S. only if the prayer is sincere.

 

[ohgodyes]

Love's the greatest thing
That we have,

 

[soggy]

Yes, as the hunted animals are eaten or otherwise used. Nothing is wasted and nothing is killed just for sport.

Not always so.

Polar bear they feed to the dogs just as we do foxes that are hunted by hound. Admittedly we don't skin them first and the hounds break them up if you let them anyway.

Apparently bear's a bit tough and gamey much like badger.

Would the fox know the difference?

 

[soggy]

Well almost!

Quite...it doesn't make a difference to the dead animal!

 

[severnmiles]

Sign of a good pack is that the fox is unrecognisable .... thats what I was told by a rather famous HM.

 

[ohgodyes]

This thrread can't be right. I've never beaten up my misses!

What on earth is that nasty endymion on about.

He just seems so full of bile.

No guesses as to who you are....

 

[southgate1975]

No.

It's what in your mind that matters.

 

[soggy]

So now its not sincerity that's required but what's in your mind.

Well according to all of the surveys its mostly sex that is on mens minds.

Does that make it acceptable?

Oh yes and shopping on womens. But then I'm not wholly convinced on that one. Ha!

 

[soggy]

What on earth is that nasty endymion on about.

You could call it that. Personally I'd call it Bull$h!t!

 

[ohgodyes]

No.

It's what in your mind that matters.

Surely not from a legal point of view though.

Surely it's what you DO that matters.

Otherwise we are talking about thought crime.

 

[Eagle_day]

"Surely not from a legal point of view though.

Not according to District Judge Parsons in the QSH case.

 

[ohgodyes]

Yes that was an interesting judgement.

basically even if you abide by what the law says you have top do you are still guilty because of what you are thinking.

 

[soggy]

Very Orwellian and 1984.
