Hey TCM, any idea when voting is going to be this week? I have to go away for the weekend to a wedding and would hate to miss out. There's some good ones here (like always).

Packer fans welcome.

OMG, I cried when i read that it got outlawed. Now it wont be long before someone gets the bright idea to outlaw it overhere in the US. (we don't kill over here).

Besides, people simply take into considerating the foxes, and they don't realize that now HUNDREDS of foxhounds are going to have to be killed (its hard to find homes for them), not to mention its the end of hundreds of years of breeding (for the hounds) and that the foxes are PESTS who eat chickens.

Foxhunters arn't evil, lecherous, humps, and beleve it or not its damn hard to stay on that horse when your galloping across fields and jumping ditches and fences. I resent the quotations around the word "sport."

i'm sorry, to have offended u, and have only just realised that i had portrayed my opinion as fact, which is wrong of me.
In my opinion it is wrong to gang up on a fox and kill it using dogs. it is also wrong to breed animals to kill.
I agree that it is a shame that hundreds of dogs may be killed. And i also think that is wrong. I also understand the fact that many people are going to loose their jobs-the dog breeders etc. which i think is also a huge problem and i have the greatest of sympathy for these people, who in the most part are skilled individuals.

You may or may not know that many hunts are continuing despite of the law, as there are loopholes (you can hunt, with all the dogs etc. as long as you don't kill a fox and other such loopholes)!

I am against fox hunting! Which you may have guessed, but i do have sympathy for those people whose lively hoods are being destroyed and the animals who will die as a result, i am not heartless.

sorry if i have offended you, but i beleive fox hunting is wrong!

Sorry about the minor thread hijacking guys, just work around us.

Thanks Duke for having a civilized conversation with me about this, i'm sorry if i came across as attacing you or anything (i'm not out to make enimies, honest!) i just wanted to show the other side of the coin. (and honestly, i don't love the killing part either, i just don't want us to loose our rights over here because)

Thanks!

Well nobody complained to me, and I figgur y'all were bein' civilized about it, so I didn't say nothin'. Then again, this ain't the rutting town hall either, so I guess if I let it go, they let it go too. ;) Stay shiny!
