ANYONE supporting the "middle way" proposals for hunting with dogs should be aware that they are supporting the yobs of the countryside.

With behavioural problems in society high on the current government's agenda, why feed the problem by allowing people to kill for sport, especially when the participants take such pleasure in being rude and abusive to any person who has the heart to stand up and say their "sport" is wrong.

To find solutions to the current problems in our society, we as people must change, and make it clear that this kind of yobbish behaviour has no place in the present day.
