How am i saying 2 wrongs make a right?!
I am saying that the hunts i know do not kill their hounds. Categorically. So not all hunts are the same.
I am a dog owner. Some people beat their dogs but i don't so like i said, you can't say "guilty by association" jsut because i am pro something?! Am i therefore guilty by association that some other dog owners beat their animals or put them in fights? No. It just doesn't work like that!

Elaine, have you actually ever been on a hunt?
Yes, there are some hunts where the vast majority might be posh but there are just as many where the vast majority are poor, hardworking farmers. You are doing yourself an injustice by throwing the social class card in. Are you saying you hate the upper class? With the hunting ban the rich haven't been affected, they will go and find another hobby, it's the country working people at the bottom end who have had their livelihoods affected.
Yes they do blow horns - have uyou ever tried communicating to several dozen dogs and riders across miles of fields? Shouting doesn't work!

I am not trying to convince you to change you stance on hunting, you are perfectly entitle to your view, but you can't be so narrow minded about other people's views. All i am saying by my point here is that you can't lump everyone in together.
Let me illustrate this one more time.
I am pro-hunt but the hunts i have had experience with do NOT kill their dogs. In fact i am not aware of any around my area who do but i could not say it categorically. But there have been some who do. I do NOT support this so do NOT support those hunts but i defend the right to hunt foxes.
Which is just the same as someone being a muslim and defending their right to be a muslim. But some muslims are terrorists. Doesn't mean that all muslims are terrorists or support terrorism.

Does that make it clear what i am trying to say?
