Er Nicky this site is familer-
Member Societies // Animals Australia Animal Activism QLD. PO Box 703 Stones Corner QLD 4120 Contact: Debra Morris Web: http://www.animalactivism.org Email:. +. Animal Liberation QLD. PO Box 463 www.animalsaustralia.org/about/member_societies.php - 32k - Cached - Similar pages RSPCA QLD CEO explained patiently what they can and can’t use as evidence in court. RSPCA `can not` use evidence gained illegally- i.e. break and enter tress pass. She had other ideas. Her partners “studying law” and knew better than RSPCA Lawyers. Assitance was offered. Three occasions she failed to show. Not even a courtesy call. A few weeks after = http://www.animalactivism.org/campaigns/rspca-cruelty/ Reads as follows> RSPCA Endorses Cruelty A year long investigation into battery egg farms by animal activists has exposed routine cruelty in farms owned by organizations accredited by the RSPCA. Bla bla. (As Hugh Wirth said= you can’t reason with these people.) Cuphandle Said I have seen criticism for and against the RSPCA and would like to make the following observations: In my opinion the RSPCA loves to get involved in media publicized issues that will bring in extra gifts and donations to boost their organizations funds, eg: a recent case in Qld where they raided a property and confiscated approximately 80 dogs (in very poor condition!).....splashed all over the local TV Channels for the next couple of days! Pale replies Enough is enough. How nasty and how typical. I would have thought most Animal Lovers would have been delighted that Mark took that on right in our worst season. BTW it wasn’t 80 dogs it was 100. Would you have preferred him to do leave them there! How dare you criticize Mark. I will remind you that RSPCA have to provide funds for these animals out of their own budget. Every NFP organization needs all the help they can get especially from media. Unlike Animals Australia they are "hands on" attending thousands of call outs and even more phone calls. RSPCA QLD are leading the way in Animal Welfare. http://72.14.253.104/search?q=cache:fyFoofwRtZ4J:www.rspcaqld.org.au/aboutus/RSPCA-Qld-Annual-Report-06-07.pdf+rspca+qld+attend+thousands+of+complaints&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=2&gl=a Posted by People Against Live Exports & Intensive Farming, Monday, 28 January 2008 6:37:30 PM

Is Mise and everybody
I do aplogise. The comment above was posted on the wrong thread. I knew I would do that one day. Have fun talking about guns. BTW as I am in here dont some of you think given these times we are entering its kind of odd for nobody to have any weapons at all. Speaking of the Lucky Country - or was they the clever country. I mean wouldnt some feel safer if people living on our surounding borders and those areas were not left without any arms at all. Oh well at least we all know we can go out and share the land with those few farmers left that hand some arms. That is of course if A these old blokes are still alive and B they dont take their weapons from them. I must say I havent heard of any gun slinging cow boys out the back on WA but with the media control these days how would we really know. smile Now that should bring your thread to life Ismise[smile) Posted by People Against Live Exports & Intensive Farming, Monday, 28 January 2008 6:58:15 PM

TurnRightThenLeft,
OK so I've got influence with the WA police and the WA farmers. You seem to think that it's OK for the stockmen to have rifles with which to protect themselves. Am I right in thinking that? Posted by Is Mise, Monday, 28 January 2008 10:45:49 PM

Is Mise - I do believe we have all been saying we think its ok for for farmers/stockman to carry rifles - licensed users and licensed firearms of course.

Your use of the word 'protection' is loaded there, Is Mise.
I'd say the use of rifles is more about pest control than it is protection, but there would be certain instances where it's used to protect against feral animals, yes. For which, rifles are just fine. So yes, there's support there for farmers to be able to use rifles. Handguns, which are easily concealed however, nope. Fraid not. And if you're extending the use of the word protection for things like protecting against crime, that's a whole different matter altogether. If it's using handguns for this, I'm vehemently opposed.
