Boxing day anti-hunt demo Droitwich

ARCrew | 27.12.2003 00:31

The scum got a roasting today from around 80 protesters at the Worcestershire hunt meet in Droitwich.

Activists kicked erected barriers down and took to the road where the animal abusing filth where trotting along ready to chase the innocent until death. A good all around demo was had. Shame on those bastards for making the horses and dogs go along with their perverted schemes.

Scumbags#1 The people in the background of the photo are 'alliance supporters/puppets of the rich'. Photo was taken from the anti-hunt demo side of the road!

Scumbags#2 The shaven headed 'filth/puppet of the state' is taking a rest from videoing the anti-hunt protesters and is also tired of being completely ignored when he repeatedly tried to chat to certain protesters. Wanka.

Horses yes. dogs no

27.12.2003 14:03

Sorry friends, making the horses "go along" yes, horses by themselves do not hunt.

But when you say that about dogs, YOU are the ones imposing your anthropocentric sense of ethics upon another species. Dogs are carnivores, pack hunting carnivores. They are NOT being "more moral" by refraining from eating meat or hunting down prey.

Dogs are perfectly willing participants in hunting along with these humans, but more to the point, THEY WOULD HUNT IN PACKS IN THE ABSENCE OF THE HUMANS. And foxes WOULD be among the things they would chase -- all by themselves, no human encouragement needed.

Bollox to the hunt

Of course dogs would hunt in packs naturally and who would we be to stop them? On the other hand, training dogs from birth to kill in packs for 'human pleasure'(?) is a different can of shite is it not? and must be stopped.

Public vote with their feet at biggest Boxing Day meets in history

Record crowds of over 275,000 people have attended 350 hunt meets across the country in a huge show of support and solidarity for hunting.

Hunts up and down the country have extended an open invitation for everyone to join them at their Boxing Day meets. Early indications show attendances well up on last year despite wet weather in many areas.

The record attendances mirror an increase in the number of new followers, particularly young people, who have been hunting this year. Over 3000 people started hunting during 'National Newcomers Week' - a special week of promotional activity in October.

Counts from 36 meets across the country show an average increase of over 10% on last Boxing Day. Amongst the biggest crowds were 6000 at Cirencester Park at the meet of the Vale of the White Horse, 5000 with the Beaufort Hunt at Worcester Lodge, Badminton and 3000 at Pershore, nr. Evesham to support the Croome and west Warwickshire. Monitoring has revealed less than 400 anti-hunt protestors across the country. The League Against Cruel Sports main demonstration at Cholesbury Common, where the Vale of Aylesbury with Garth and South Bucks met, attracted just 40 people.

Carnivores?

Actually, just for the record, dogs aren't carnivorous pack animals, they are pack animals but they're scavengers, so you can't label them with the same tag

ANTIS ARE ANTI PROS ARE PROS

18.01.2005 17:21

right im 12 and pro yesterday i had 1 day off school to go hunting with the duke of beaufort, we killed and not v often does it happen. i was allowed to make my own choices about hunting as i grew up, there was now 'biased' tlak by my parents. i knew the fox was either getting away or not. and any pro will tell you the photos of foxes being 'brutally murdered' are photo enhanced, nothing like that EVER happens. i am prepared, at 12, to break the law even if you ban it mr blair, its my life, my rules and you might rule parliament for now but you dont rule me, in case antis and blair havent realised, the UK is a free country duh!! and we are not scum bags, we are not snobs. we do not 'beat up' antis as you have alleged we have. you are animal lovers?? whatever, loving animals wont mean you will lead hounds across main roads, duh! and for the record, my dad grew up on a council estate with a very anti family, was himself an anti, learned the FACTS NOT FICTION and is now a solid pro and was a marshall on the liberty and livelihood march. and don't say that can't be right, im 12, why would i lie about something like that hey?
hunt forever, live it, breathe it, fight for it.

pro-at-12


What exactly did you want to happen??

22.01.2005 21:54

well according to your photo you nearly had that man on the floor, what exactly was the purpose of the wish? what would you have achieved? yes maybe another photo for your sadistic site but think about it rationally.
thats, what, 550lbs of horse there?? it could do o-30mph in about 40yards, and would hit you like a tonne of bricks. in case you hadnt noticed there is a young girl (when i say young i mean toddler) in the background. what if you had have unseated the hunter?? and the horse had of freaked? you can guarentee the horse would have bolted careering into the crowd. what if he had hit the young girl, she wouldnt be young anymore, she'd be growing daisies. is this what you want to achieve? do you really think this is sensible? is this your mission? to kill innocent people?? and dont bring the hunting into this, this is not what we are trying to prove, we are just trying to explain to you numbskulls that you are irresposible nutters endangering the lives of men women children just for one photo to be used on your sleazy site? i dont think thats very good. if it was your child and some one had caused the accident i think you would have quite a bit to say!! so , before you try to wreak anymore havoc, put yourself in the potential victims shoes, and try, if you thick skulls are capable of it , to understand the danger you aer causing!
