The issue isn’t killing an animal for food, its about killing it

Comment on Election 2010 Conservative Petitions and Banning Fox Hunting by Chris P.

The issue isn’t killing an animal for food, its about killing it for “sport”. This kind of blood sport is wrong, barbaraic and unnecessary. I am a meat eater and love meat and am all for killing an animal in the name of food, but these foxes are not killed for that purpose. They are purposely chased for many miles before being torn to shreds by dogs, for the pleasure of their masters. It is a pathetic argument to bring up “vegetarians” or others who have “never lived on farms” etc, its a pointless and jurassic form of hunting that has no purpose other than killing time.
The conservatives can take their fox hunting ban and f off.
