Take any of these ponces out to a field and give ’em a headstart before we set dogs on them to hunt them and tear them limb from limb
Ban that shit lads
Fucking scum. And all the bollox of it being ” traditional” can fuck off too. There’s plenty of traditions that have died out and this should be one of them.
Fucking disgusting.
To be clear ripping a fox apart using dogs is legal “sport” in Ireland. And it’s ignored or defended by politicians up and down the country. Using “tradition” as an excuse. As if poncing around dressed up as English gentry in Ireland wasn’t enough of a giveaway about this “tradition’. It’s as much an Irish tradition as killing Fenians.
When they come to your doorstep looking for your vote please demand they ban this.
Edit: The Green Party claimed in 2019:
> “The Green Party is opposed to all blood sports, and will bring in legislation to end hare coursing, fox hunting, hare hunting and mink hunting.” https://www.greenparty.ie/policies/animal-welfare
The Greens have been in government a long time and done sweet F all.
Absolute nonsense that this is still a thing. Not one politician will go against it too even though it would overwhelmingly be backed.
Well Ireland is not known for well regulated animal laws. This and so many other things.
Always annoy a hunt whenever you see it, honk your horn, rev your engine, drive awkwardly to hold them up.
These lads are rotten to their cores. Torturing wild animals, abusing their dogs, destroying other people’s land, blocking driveways and public roads, and just being all round wankers. If your idea of fun causes big problems for people in the area then you shouldn’t have it.
The UK only banned it after enough public pressure. We need the same to happen here. It’s barbaric carry on by elitist ponces.
Can’t even bring myself to open the link. What the fuck? Didn’t know this sort of thing was still happening. It’s fucking animal abuse, and fuck anyone who tries to defend it as tradition.
Grim and utterly barbaric.
Such unnecessary cruelty and suffering 😔
I grew up in the country and some of neighbours growing were involved in the local hunt. My family were farmers and the intense hatred all of my family has for the hunt shouldn’t be surprising but you have to get along with neighbours. But even still my brother doesn’t allow hunting or shooting on his land. They were doing too much damage: cutting fences and not repairing them, damaging ground and grass. And one year chased his cattle with quads to stop them interfering with the horses. That was the breaking point for him. Truly awful people it is such a cruel sport.
Fox’s are part of ecosystem we can’t get rid of them, they are wild animals. They do cause damage to chickens etc. but they are following their nature. There is a den of fox’s in the woods on by brothers farm now. You can sometimes see them playing in the fields.
I haven’t lived in the area for 10-15 years but the amount of young Solictors and legal professionals who were coming from Dublin for the hunt shocked me when I last went to an event. But more of them are moving to the area. It is such a clique.
My brother told me a story from an event he was at a few years back, there was a group of them discussing putting in an objection to family member of a local farmer building a house on his parents land, the reason for the objection. The drive would ruin the run/gallop they would have in the field, it is not even their field. They just acted liked they owned it and were entitled to it . They did put in the objection btw. And they no longer have access to that farmers land either.
Sorry for the long rant but I hate the hunt and the people who take part in it.
disgusting.
I can’t believe its not banned here.
i dont get why people are outraged about this but are completely silent about the farm industry. complete cognitive dissonance
Apparently it’s a ‘’sport’’, like how the F ?? If they want to go hunting then hunt each another! Bunch of brainless fools!
Years ago, the father of a friend shot a fox when it ran onto his land and through his field with the hunt following closely. “That’s put an end to your fun, now get out of my fuckin field!” he said. Done the fox a favour possibly.
Are they not all Protestant in a hunt or did I hear that wrong?
Its a protestant thing like an obsession with flegs
I’ve a mate who hunts. He’s mad into horses and flying over ditches at full pelt. He has zero interest in the dogs or foxes it’s all about the horse riding for him.
My uncle is involved in fox hunts around the area where I’m from. My mother is constantly telling me that my uncle and I should catch up more often since we both care so much about animals. Because apparently owning 30 dogs and killing foxes purely for sport makes you an animal lover. It’s disgusting.
I would vote to ban it if I could. BUT:
If you eat meat or have ever been to a slaughter house, then shut your gob. It’s no different.
These are horsey types in hunts that would have been pro unionist back before independence. I’d say SF will come under pressure to ban it if they ever get in. It stinks of the Irish R.M types riding to hound.
May they die with a crowd around them, the cunts.
Prod activity. I would hardly call it sport. Bastards
