  I'm sorry BBW but you can't go round calling other people idiots when you're justifying hunting because it's a tradition - lol. Because that's an idiotic reason. What if people had said slavery must go on because it's a tradition?! It's a nasty thing to do and anyone that enjoys killing can't be right in the head. The fun of the chase is another matter and you can't condemn those that obey the law and have found other ways of continuing.
  
  I don't agree with saboteurs using violence but psychological tactics I'm fine with. As Kathy said though, I can understand the frustration. (Those that break the law and kill that is). If they won't listen to reason and are prepared to break the law then it's not surprising there are people feel the need to get down to their level ie violence.

  No MrsH, I am an active member of a game shooting syndicate and therefore kill game birds.... Does that make me wrong in the head just because others don't agree with it?
  Any person who can make threats of violence over this towards those involved cannot be of sound mind?

  Yes if you enjoy killing birds I would say you're not right in the head. It's disgusting. And no I don't eat meat and haven't my whole adult life so I'm not a hypocrite - just incase you were going to ask.
  
  As I said, I don't agree with violence against hunters but I can understand how they can get frustrated to the point of feeling it's the only way of getting through to these people. I personally think unless you make them the subject of a hunt then sadly they will never get why people are sickened by their desire to kill. And even then they probably wouldn't get it."
