Yes you are. So them having a bit of money makes you like them. How shallow. Have you ever been in love with Poverty, like St Francis? Have you ever been in love with Dirt, like St Simeon? Have you ever been in love with disease and suffering, like our nurses and philanthropists? Such passions are not virtues, but the most unnatural of all the vices. Leave it to the poor to pretend that poverty is a blessing: leave it to the coward to make a religion of his cowardice by preaching humility: we know better than that.

None of which is an excuse for the hunting method used - chased for hours and ripped apart by dogs. If the aim really was pest control, they would just shoot them. But that's not the aim, the aim is for people to get pleasure from suffering and horrendous brutality. They are fucking appalling people who are a disgrace to humanity. Then make it illegal. It is illegal.

It is illegal, just not enforced properly. It’s your culture and it’s not my place to criticise. I don’t come from a barbarian culture. Um, yes, you do.

But you seem to be attracted to the former. 1 drink and you're their friend.

I want to agree with Mowlick but it does sound barbaric. It may have come from a practical tradition but there perhaps isn’t any use for it now.
