Fox hunting and smoking in public

So how do you see animals? Is it not a problem to kill them for you at all?

I didn't grow up in England or around fox hunting but hunting in general is a familiar activity for our area and I STRONGLY believe that is you KILL it you EAT it. Maybe catch and release fishing and crow shooting could be exceptions but seriously if you won't eat it then why in god's name must you buy special passes, equipment, and arms to track around in the wilderness for hours just to find these animals who are minding their own business??? Elk, Deer, Bear, Moose, hell even antelope make sense but foxes? are they tasty? ducks, pheasent, quail all make sense to hunt with dogs.... that bring the pretty birdies back nice and neat but shredded? that is just messy


Can you retrain the dogs to hunt other animals (birds listed above) or is ALL hunting in England banned now? Why would you have to cull the horses?? I mean they are rabid wild viscious fox destroying horses right? they are just normal hunting horses that would do chasing any animal... right? just trying to understand, If I am being ignorant please explain to me! :D

Ok, horses are just used for hunting, so these lovely hunters can't be bothered to look after them if they can't use them for hunting so they "have" to kill them.

I do not think any form of hunting is acceptable unless you eat it, and, let's face it, what's the point, when anything worth eating can be bought if you look hard enough anyway. Fox hunting is just pointless, just an excuse to kill something.

All hunting with hounds in now banned in England and Wales. I assume that means hunting where the dogs do the killing, not retrieving. Deer and foxes are the only animals really hunted with hounds here, otters used to be until they nearly became extinct through people's stupidity.

Hooray for the hunting ban on ~Foxes~ that is no sport chasing them down w/ packs of dogs just waiting to rip them to shreds,,,,Far as Smoking in Public places,,,, to each his own,,,,but in eating places w/ ur children Please I like to breath air not second hand smoke. I only partake in ~Sweet Green Smoking~ anywhere I want in my home just Luv sparking a good old ~J~ for what ails me :cool:
