Hi Is Mise, just as you don't like that commie front org the RSPCA sticking its nose into secret shooters business, did you object when the coppers came around sticking their noses into more secret business when a man killed himself at the 'Markesman Firing Range' in Adelaide. that was the third such death since 2008 at the 'Marksman' range.

Not at all, Paul; the police were doing their job, investigating a death that needed investigating.

The RSPCA would be doing their job if they investigated alleged acts of cruelty by hunters but as death by a well placed bullet is the most humane way to kill game animals or feral pests then the RSPCA has no business going on about hunting.
Hunters would never subject an animal to a lingering 1080 poison death, such cruelty should be prosecuted by the RSPCA and one wonders why the RSPCA and the Greens don't roundly condemn its use.

"Hunters would never subject an animal to a lingering 1080 poison death,"

Of course not Is Mise, hunters would not use dogs to tear and rip at animals, never ever. There are no bad shots where animals are left to suffer a long and painful death.

Like leading NSW hunter, millionaire Tony Azzi, was found to be killing protected wildlife, wombats. No these goody two shoes from the Shooters and Hooter are to busy supporting greyhound racing to concern themselves with animal cruelty.

Paul,

""Hunters would never subject an animal to a lingering 1080 poison death,"

Of course there are misplaced shots but the hunter tracks the animal and puts it out of its misery, most shots are well placed and result in instant death, my own experiences with foxes is that a bullet from the .220 Swift that I usually use means a dead fox with no suffering whatsoever.

You can't say the same for the 1080 that is approved by the RSPCA and the Greens.

There is no such an animal as a leading hunter, and if Azzi shot wombats then he needs to be prosecuted, as for the S&F politicians voting to support greyhound racing, they were saving jobs and agreeing with the will of the majority of their constituents,(and the majority of people in NSW) i.e. doing their job.

Unless you are hiding behind every bush, you cannot say with any certainty that " the hunter tracks the animal and puts it out of its misery, most shots are well placed and result in instant death". You own experience is necessarily the norm.

Greyhound racing equals jobs, so does cock fighting and bear baiting, not to mention drug dealing.

Paul,

Hunters don't waste ammunition, it' expensive, nor do they spend good money on getting the best and most accurate rifles for the job.
Tne norm nowadays is for new hunting rifles to shoot sub minute of angle right out of the box.

"Greyhound racing equals jobs, so does cock fighting and bear baiting, not to mention drug dealing."
I thought that the Greens were in favour of certain illicit drugs being OK.
The S&F weren't around when cock fighting and bear baiting were legal, so what's the relevance?

Do the Greens condemn the prolonged cruelty associated with the use of 1080?
