The Class Thing
Posted: Wed Sep 15, 2004 9:19 pm
Going off at a slight tangent from the hunting stuff, so a new thread.
If, as Illiniosblue suggests, our main objection to foxhunting is that it's a class thing, then why aren't we busily picketing polo matches and the Pony Club, or sabotaging the Badminton Three Day Event? It's barbaric and unnecessary. If a fox is a pest, you can always shoot it (although someone managed to even bollocks that up this week).
The whole purpose to fox hunting is to give people the chance to dress up, ride wildly around the countryside with a pack of hounds and, most importantly, get their jollies watching an animal being ripped apart. The fact that this activity is termed a sport, and that the inbred mutants and their sycophantic friends believe that Reynard has a sporting chance of escape, just proves what a brainless bunch of twats they are.
Yours, a carnivorous townie.
