Go to it chaps..... they won't seem to post my comments....

Ah, what's happened to England?

I just tryed to send them a comment and they say they have changed there rules and would not accept me either don't you love a free and open press

I see that the animal rights crowd also want to start closing down zoos here in the UK from what the newspapers suggest. I never like to see animals pacing around a small zoo enclosure, but it would be such a shame to conservation of critically endangered species and education in general to close all zoos, especially well funded, zoos that actually do care for all their animals. Yes all wild animals should be seen in the wild, but some species are virtually extinct in the wild and closing the zoo is essentially pulling the plug on that species, even if there is little hope for that species anyway....it helps preserve it for that much longer so future generations can see them for real instead of in books.

I was able to plagiarize a little from a 2003 article I read and get this up there:

I kill elk, deer, and antelope every year, along with a good mix of birds and fish. The predatory lifestyle keeps me close to the wild and I'm happy that my food has never been injected with hormones, fattened to a disease-like condition, then killed by some slaughterhouse worker I've never met.

We've become so removed from the reality of obtaining our food supply that almost no one knows how to wring - or would dare to wring - a chicken's neck. If I'm going to eat something, I much prefer to kill it myself. I hunt elk and deer with a bow and arrow, fish with hooks, and I take birds with a shotgun, then wring their necks if the shot didn't finish them off. This may sound gruesome, but I can face the consequences of my need to eat. I limit my kills to what is sustainable and sound for animal populations, and I participate in efforts to protect wilderness and open lands. It may seem like my lifestyle is a holdover from the past, but to me it is a good plan for the future .

Great post! (Hunters) (ninnie libbies)

Based on the views of the antis,while it is a virtual certainty they have and would never wring the neck of a chicken, it is a sure bet they spend more than their fair share of time choking them....

The Daily Liar had an artcle a few years back, which was, to say the least, was so lopsided I decided to post a reply.

My reply appeared a day later, so edited that my meaning was changed completely.

I posted another message, which never made it.

Just goes to show that original article was not to inform the public, but to brain wash the unwary.

Yep, freedom of speech is well and truly alive in the so called "free" press! NOT!

I was born in 1948. Then, the sun truly never set on the British Empire. If you wanted to read something truly authoritative and trustworthy about DG hunting, it was nearly always written by an Englishman...now, this.

In a country where owning a handgun is damn near impossible, it appears that aluminum foil hats are in great supply.
