TIMMAY 6 Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 Went to see my local hunt meet this morning (new years is bigger than boxing day round here), and i'm glad to say there must have been about a thousand people there in support. There were however about 10 anti's having a moan with their banners, which due to living in a democracy i fully except that people are allowed to protest peacefully, and i'm glad they can, however hearing them shout comments like 'bitches on horseback', and derogatory comments to kids (really wound me up), i was wondering why the police present didn't tell them to pack it in. The hunt were about to conduct a legal activity, and people are allowed to shout abuse at them? What would happen if i stood outside tesco and started shouting 'bitch pushing a trolley'? Don't think i would be left to do it all day! Was wondering if anyone legally minded knows why they're aloud to do it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flint67 2 Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 this sort of thing really winds me up too mate , its like they have nothing to say ,except personal abuse. Im guessing the old bill have to decide whether making arrests would cause more agro than necessary in what could be a volatile situation . .but its not good enough ,anyone shouting abuse at kids should be thrown to the floor with the familiar excessive force of the police that we all know and love !!! I always say the one thing the antis cant cope with is the thing they hate most . . . .im sure the MFH wouldnt have been impressed but the sound of a thousand people chanting "we all kill badgers , hundreds of badgers" would be the one thing that would have ruined the antis day . . . .petty i know ,but can you picture their faces !!!!

zigzag dan 784 Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 The police have always adopted that attitude - at the Waterloo Cup they would let antis shout all kinds of abuse but when the coursing lads had a go back they would draw truncheons and make arrests - Iremember one of the soap dodgers giving it out large as the law stood with him but as the police escort left them he was left on his own only 6ft away from me - his face was a picture - the look of terror was great to see - evev better when a brick came from behind me and hit him in the face !!! Let them have their moment as they know this laws on its way out !! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mushroom 13,739 Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 I know if they started to abuse or swear infront or at my children there wouldn't be 10 antis stood there. They'd be led out on the floor wondering why they are bleeding Police or no police Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Hi mate the police will only act if you report it.Next,s time it happens go to the nearest officer and tell him/her.Due to there harassment you and the kids are in a state of alarm.He will then have to act.If they persist after a warning. They can be done with a breach of the peace Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bedrock 16 Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 Its the same everywhere they are a fecking disgrace with no respect. We peacefully march and load lads get coshed about by the police but when they protest they hurl abuse at people doing a perfectly legal activity and they get away with it. One incident I remember witch makes my blood boil was when a load of antis who were grown men were calling a girl who was a keen follower and helped around the kennels a blood thirsty whore. The poor lass was only about 15 and was terrified Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AL BUNDY 45 Posted January 2, 2010 Report Share Posted January 2, 2010 in a round about way it might be a good thing they have hunts to protest at .if they didnt have this outlet i think the kiddy fiddling rate would soar beyond belief. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
