Finally found time to view the recommended clips, and immediately was struck with the following questions. Was the BBC cameraman REALLY a BBC employee, bearing in mind his blatant provocation towards the farmer? I noticed the 'BBC' seemed to have been written on his jacket with felt tip. Do the BBC really indulge in this sort of activity?

Seemed to me that the farmers/landowners were EXTREMELY level headed in the face of the masked thugs, so what does everyone conclude from this? And what hunt was it? Was the video filmed by a 'mole' amongst the saboteurs (what a useless bunch! I had to laugh!) Perhaps someone can enlighten me/us on this one; either the video maker , a BBC employee, someone with the hunt?

Having far too much time on my hands :smirk: I wrote a complaint to the BBC regarding this cameraman as although the sabs portrayed the land owner to be aggressive he was clearly provoked. They are going to check it out but I have a funny feeling he wasn't a BBC cameraman. Anyone can print BBC on the back of a tabbard.

Disregarding the provocation he was also on private land and somewhere that he shouldn't have been.

"Seemed to me that the farmers/landowners were EXTREMELY level headed in the face of the masked thugs"

I agree, I'm very 'hot' and would have really lost my rag! Especially if they were trespassing on my land!

"And what hunt was it?"

OSB&WK and the East Kent.

" (what a useless bunch! I had to laugh!) "

Yep! Especially when that mouthy coward got a bit of a shoein, if that had been the other way around there is no way the pros would have stood there and watched their mate get a kick-in, they'd have been in there backing the lad up, it just shows how pathetic and spineless these morons are....but then again...we already knew that!

Thanks for the info, Seven! So the BBC question is still there. Apparently, the BBC have 12000 plus employees (in case anyone didn't know!) Thats the equivalent of a sizeable town! Surely someone amongst 'em must be on this forum? (I promise not to say anything about the extortionate licence fee!)

You seem to have quoted but forgotten to comment...so I'll finish your sentance for you...

"

Here's what you should have written... "Like myself, hence why I have to spend my Saturdays filming legal hunting and picking fights with much bigger blokes than myself, only I can't quite finish what I start".

I have put the punctuation and caps in the appropriate areas seeing as you can't quite grasp the concept of punctuation.

No need to thank me, its my pleasure.

[Hippy]

i;ve never filmed hunts, nor have i ever had a fight, other than on the rugby field or with my brothers (all three older).

So what form do your anti hunt activities take?
Which packs of hounds do you target?

 

[severnmiles]

And if you don't you're obviously not as passionate as you portray!

 

[Hippy]

i don't 'target' any hounds

 

[Hercules]

Hippy,


If you are honest with yourself, your only 'anti activity' is gobbing off on the interne. Other than that,you don't do anything really, do you?

 

[Hippy]

i engage in non violent legal anti hunting activities.
if you don't like my 'gobbing off' don't read what i say.

 

[peakpark]

"i engage in non violent legal anti hunting activities"

Can you describe these in more detail?
