Country Bumpkins meet the police

[The PIT]

Pro hunt protesters discovered as we townies know that riot police aren't ones to play around with.

Perhaps they learn't a little how a fox feels just before it's torn to shreds.

Guess you are not a pro-hunt guy then? I was amazed at the footage. Seemed to me a lot opf lower class protesters, not your everyday duke, count and landlord at all. What's in it for them anyway (the protesters)?

[Paddy]

They are the people employed by ' your everyday duke, count and landlord'.

These people are complaining primarily because when the bill is passed they will be forced out of a job.

[The PIT]

Also rent a mob also come along to hijack the protest.


Fox hunting should go the way of bear bating extinct.

Now if the fox could shoot back they'd lose interest very rapidly and then you could call it a sport.

[The PIT]

They could make this a sport.

Pro Hunters v Police. Everyone will love it.

Police batter the hunters and when they finally learn to run, like the fox the police can get their dogs out and then chase them.

You'll have the nice sight of the pro hunter being chewed by police dogs. It isn't a problem becuase they'll be enjoying it really.

I read some short book written by some duke entitled guide to vainity or something like that.

He basically said, the higher and longer in possession your rank, the less you can care about fox hunting and social obligations. On the other hand, the recent nobility or wannabees need to adhere the customs strictly.

He also said, that butlers and othe servants are generally more snobbish than their masters.
