Yes. Hunters are cowards. They have guns. How bout try and kill the animals without weapons. Those
cowards should be stopped. |

Definitely! Why kill animals and get away with it while people who have parked their cars 2 bloody
nanoseconds later than they expected get fined? And how dare anyone complain that the hunting ban
contravenes with their human rights! What on earth makes these people think they have the right to
kill animals that have not harmed them in any way? |

Anyone who breaks the law should be punished for that action. However i'm not in favour of any
relaxation or distraction from the effective policing of our roads. They are already in such a
state. |

Completely agree, these people think they are above the Law when they are clearly not. |

We can build fences to keep foxes, and lions and bears, in.
So why do farmers find it so difficult to make fox proof fences? |

The punishment should fit the crime and equally, the sentence should be suited to the person being
tried. Whilst a fine of £100 maybe sufficient for deterring a motorist from parking in a dangerous
place, or driving at 40mph down a 30mph street, an aristocratic fox hunter is probably willing to
pay the fine on the odd occasion that they are caught. So it makes perfect sense to increase the
punishment relative to the person being punished.
And just to rebut muin13's comments; there is no reason to choose between who we would rather see go
to prison. Of course, if a motorist causes the deaths of other roads users, the punishment should
be given accordingly, just as it should be if a fox hunter repeatedly commits the crime, despite
previous attempts to deter them. |

In both cases people are breaking the law. But what is more important is that the intensity of its
result. Hunting the poor and innocent animals cruelly indicates that we are living a life of the age
of medeterrian. Those days are gone when hunting was count as a symbol of royalty. Modern and
civilized man should be much more advanced in his thinking and should not be a part of hunting. In
Britain, hunting is made illegal but some people are busy making the law fool by their activities
like hunting the animals secretly. The British police should engross themselves more and more in
search of those secret hunters in lieu of those who park illegally. They should be taught a tough
lesson that breaking the laws will lead to them lifelong imprisonment. This could be made people
more anxious before lifting the shot gun. |

Both are breaking the law.
Yes , I believe that anyone who breaks the law about hunting with dogs should be prosecuted. Just
because the opponents of the ban say it's unjust isn't excuse enough to take the law into their own
hands.
The majority of the British people are against cruel blood sports and this includes very many people
who live in the countryside.
On boxing day the media gave a lot of coverage to those hunts who defied the ban and it's obvious
enough to see who they are.
Those who break the law are encouraging people to deny law and order for their own means.
If everyone decided that laws weren't what suited them then we would have a situation wherein
lawlessness would become the norm.
Parking illegally should be dealt with as the law on this issue states too.
If the police enforced the law on the ban on hunting effectively then these lawbreakers and this is
what they are, would be controlled. |

Yes, I agree. Law and registration are sometimes just stupid. |

You guys In England sure have some goofy laws. How else are you going to keep the fox population in
check, does anyone hunt with out dogs? How about trapping them is that legal there? I don't
understand why so much time and enforcement not to mention money is spent on silly things like this.
Just repeal the law you will save all the time and money plus control the fox population its a win
win. |

This is really something that concrens the privillaged syrley does it matter, they've been doing t
for years why should it matter so much now? |

I happen to agree with muin13 on this occasion. These people who think it is their job, to police
the events are going to cause death or deaths sooner of later, and that isn't something I am wishing
for.
The agenda for these people goes far beyond the protection of animals. It has become a battle of
will. And I know where I would put my money.
I have said it before, if they cared about the animals they would be begging the hunt to do the job
it used to.
The fox is smart and it is the runts that are killed. It is done humanely, a nip form the pack
leader. Yes the others tear it apart after. If they have the chance dogs are capable.
The urban fox provides a modicum of amusement for a few, but is a scruffy little runt compared to
it's country cousin. They are harmful to the natural wild life. I wish the hunt could flush them all
out. |

Hunting is one of thoughts great British traditions. So many of are traditions have been ruined. Why
ruin another its merely getting rid of what it means to be British which even today some people have
a problem understanding. |

Hunting was necessary before food was available in grocery stores. Hunting as a sport, to me is
"legal killing" today. |

Hunting in the UK is not Illegal, it's only Illegal to hunt with hounds.And as for harsher
punishments, would you rather see a hunter go to prison or a driver who parked in the wrong place
and caused a accident killing 10 people? |
