They ban foxhunting by decent folk & before you know it a bunch of scallies in white track suits & a pit bull move in on the action

Intriguing. I don't really care either way about fox hunting or foxes, but I think I prefer Trad to Nu Skool all things considered.

I'm just about prepared to accept that sadism is not the main motivation of someone who goes to so much effort and wears odd clothes. 🙂

From the Cap'n's link:

[i]“Our hunt started because one of my friends was actually stopped by a police officer in Hyde Park last year and warned he could face a prosecution because his Jack Russell was chasing a squirrel. How ridiculous is that?"[/i]

Love it.

Aren't you allowed to hunt vermin with dogs? Squirrels vermin?

I think there's probably a difference between 'hunting' and 'chasing'.

I'm not sure whether many kiddies in Hyde Park would enjoy seeing dogs tearing a squirrel apart.
Although they might find one chasing a squirrel rather amusing.

There are ways to get round it anyway. I believe it is still legal to have the dog flush out the squirrels, and then to kill them with a giant owl. 🙂

Only if hunting with a giant owl can be described as falconry 🙂

They ban foxhunting

It's not a proper ban though is it?
