Oh yeah, if anybody wants to argue with me to my face or have a nice empathetic conversation with me (both suit me fine), then meet me at Uttoxeter next Saturday.
I’ll be the one wearing the "Support our proud 300 year tradition of brutal murder" shirt.
Hi GH
I was in Glasgow last week and tried to chat this girl up. I told her she had a very sexy accent and asked if it was Glaswegian. It didn’t work.
I’m going to have the countryside alliance scribed on my top somewhere. It’s a direct assault on those particular b*****d
s.Kotki, although you were quite rude to lollysmate, I think his question does deserve a proper answer ..
Posioning could be far worse than being eaten alive, at least it’s over in a few minutes, rather than hours. I remember the Davidians who were poisioned at Waco, by the FBI … not very nice, I’d take the dogs any day.

A rookie error, but you’re from England so you weren’t to know.
NEVER ask a chick if she’s a weegee.
No good can come from it.
Either she’s not a weegee and she’ll be offended that you thought she was one or she IS a weegie and she’ll be upset that you realised she was one.

That’s fine if he’s in a bar, but no good on the street.
(BTW, if she’s drinking in the street she’s from the west of Scotland all right)
To dodge the weegees, here’s a classic street maneouvre:
Go up to the chick and ask her if there’s anywhere nearby you can get a salad.
If she tells you where you can get one, she’s not from Glasgow. Feel free to invite her to share your salad.
If she asks "what’s a salad", she’s a weegee for sure.
If she says "there’s lettuce and tomato in a big mac", she’s probably from Bearsden.
Hope this helps.
Steve
May I suggest, that no answer at all could mean that she is actually from Paisley. In such a case you are lucky to have been murdered by her extended family.

Hi everybody
I have decided to call off tomorrows visit to Uttoxeter since the Midlands National isn’t until after the Cheltenham festival. It wouldn’t have been a very productive day out.
What about castration? Do humans really have the god given right to decide which animals to nurture and which ones to slaughter?

Castration?!?!?
C’mon, Kotki. That’s just going too far.
They might be wegee’s, but that would be a violation of their (sub)human rights.

Hi everybody,
Of those 16 people who voted pro hunting – why haven’t any of you people offered any answers to the questions I posted last month?
I voted Pro Hunt- Carnivore, but I can’t say I have strong opinions on either. Here’s my honest replies to your questions Kotki…
Do foxes enjoy spending the last 15 minutes of their life being chased for the amusement of a minority? Probably not
List the justifications of being a carnivore. Then list the justifications of fox hunting. Meat tastes better than lettuce
Do the foxes feel pain when the hounds tear into them? <br>Maybe for about a second, yes
Would you like it if your pets / beloved horses were murdered sadistically in the name of fun? Don’t know of many who keep foxes as pets.
Who’s fault is it that thousands of hounds will be put down? Labour
Were those hounds only worthy of being accessories to murder rather than being respected and treated as the most loyal friend to man should be? They wouldn’t be there if there wasn’t any fox hunting, but there is.
Aren’t horses going to be put down for their lack of occupation? I don’t know, I wouldn’t think there would be that many horses put down.
Can’t horses enjoy a fruitful and enjoyable life as a pointer (keep PTP alive, grass roots) – rather than a tool? I don’t know the situation with this, re what horses are mainly used.
Do you hate foxes? Not particularly, but I would if I had several hundred dead chickens on my front lawn
Do you think that bullfighting is cruel? Bulls aren’t vermin, so yes it is cruel.
Hi everybody
Over the last couple of months, I’ve had the opportunity to see near enough every nook and cranny that these lands have to offer including the great nation of Cornwall – power to Mebyon Kernow!!! Whilst on these travels, I witnesses some radical pro hunting propoganda which I wouldn’t normally find in built up areas / cities (where hunting is equally popular according to the CA). For those who live in the areas who don’t get out much… THEY ARE LYING TO YOU!!!
First off is the ‘Fight Prejudice Fight The Ban’ joke.
For those people who live in CA areas, I’m sure that you understand the English language fairly well. But just in case you don’t, here is a definition of the word Prejudice.
prej·u·dice  s)<br>n.
An adverse judgment or opinion formed beforehand or without knowledge or examination of the facts.
A preconceived preference or idea.
The act or state of holding unreasonable preconceived judgments or convictions. ÂÂÂ
Irrational suspicion or hatred of a particular group, race, or religion.
Detriment or injury caused to a person by the preconceived, unfavorable conviction of another or others.
tr.v. prej·u·diced, prej·u·dic·ing, prej·u·dic·es
To cause (someone) to judge prematurely and irrationally.
To affect injuriously or detrimentally by a judgment or an act
You see, a few examples of prejudice in action would be
Racial discrimination in Ireland. e.g. The passing of the Statutes of Kilkenny (1366) which listed the "obedient" (English controlled) lands of Carlow, Dublin, Kildare, Kilkenny, Louth, Tipperary, Meath, Trim, Waterford and Wexford where intermarriage with the Irish was forbidden. Those outside the obedient lands were regarded as enemies. Or that in the blatantly inconsiderate Scramble for Africa (commited by Britain, France, Portugal, Belguim, Spain, Germany and Italy between 1880 – 1900). When ‘dissolved’ between 1962 and 1980, the new borders didn’t reflect the natural or ethnic boundaries of the African people. Inevitably, countries like Congo, Etheopia, Nigeria and many others are in the s**t<br>.
Sexual discrimination suffered by women who weren’t allowed to vote before 1890 in Wyoming USA (1920 throughout USA) 1918 in the UK (although women under the age of 30 still couldn’t vote – you can file that under prejudice against younger people) 1919 in Germany 1944 France and so forth.
The term prejudice can also extend to cover those that suffer on the basis of disability, religion, sexual orientation and age. However, by definition, it isn’t extended to those who want to kill for fun. (get a job in pest control if it’s your true calling)
The opinion formed against the act hunting (and not a personal attack against those that hunt – although huntsmen take it on themselves to assault sabs just because they like animals) is one which consents to knowledge and examination of facts.

‘Never underestimate the power of a minority’ – Winston Curchill
I’m sure they teach maths in CA terratories but just in case, 59% is NOT a minority.
Finally, the banner featuring a picture of a woman dressed in hunting getup and a picture of the same woman dressed as a nurse. The slogan reads ‘here they hate her – now they need her’
What a pathetic attempt to gain sympathy for pro hunters.
The relevancy is totally non-parralel. Correct me if I’m wrong but wasn’t Harold Shipman a doctor? And on the flipside, he also lived in my hometown of Mottram. Hitler himself was a homosexual vegetarian.
From an enviramentalist point of view, I call on the CA and other prohuntganda merchants to stop wasting our valuable trees and resources on this claptrap because you are not helping yourselfs.

Grass – <br>re the goat –
Tell your pa-in-law that next time he should try shouting ‘SHOO’ as loudly as he can while flapping his arms around in the style of Tom Scudamore in a tight finish.
Kotki.. you’ve obviously put in a good deal of work to define "prejudice" so thoroughly. Now look up "tolerance".
Hi GH my old mucker
I haven’t got the law I wanted. Regarding your father in law, he was a noble man in making a sacrifice for the greater good in saving both the lives of other animals and the lifelihoods of their owners.
My beef isn’t with the individuals themselves since nobody walking the earth is perfect and I dislike holding personal grudges. I am however, strongly opposed to the repulsive act of chasing a natural fox for miles. If our furry friend is lucky, he will get away after a purposeless scaring of a lifetime instigated by humans who should grow up. If he is unlucky, he dies an untimely and unnatural death.
I dislike any form of justification for this outdated act and it just so happens that the Countryside Alliance are a prominant instigator of this.
Hi insomniac
I checked the word tolerance and it turns out that I can’t tolerate the action of hunting. If this is a freedom of choice statement then I want the freedom to choose to do many things that these pro-hunt douches wouldn’t be able to tolerate.

Looks like even Trail Hunting may be banned soon with the bad publicity it’s been getting lately. Some foxes will occasionally be killed in a trail hunt if the hounds pick up the scent of one who gets too close. I always thought that hunting was the best way of keeping the population in check. They have to be culled somehow because of all the carnage that they cause in the countryside. A lot of people seem to think that all the foxes live a long, happy life now that hunting them is banned and have no idea that they will now be poisoned or shot- probably more the latter. Both of these methods can lead to a slow death, especially with a bad marksman.
Hunting creates a lot of jobs and it would be sad if it was stopped altogether – and how would the odious hunt sabs survive on just their dole money without the extra dosh from the funding they con from people who think it’s being put to good use rather than being spent on baccy and booze(imo) by said hunt sabs. I’ve found a link that gives both sides of the story, apparently. I’ve not read it yet as it’s getting quite late now. Will leave it here for tomorrow and for anyone who may be interested.
