The CA is just like the BNP they try to create a them v us thing to get support. I regard them as the same.

Thats a disgusting comparision, unfounded and irrelavent. Any issue that effects groups of people has two sides, maybe three or four. To assume one side is correct and ignoring the other is ignorant, typical of an animal rights supporter to generalise and miss the point. There are other issues in this apart from animal rights, and i would argue that human rights should come before these. Freedom from oppression by the government and majority is why we have a democracy, people need to consider all sides of the arguement. In fact you could compare the Animal rights movemenet with that of Racist parties and groups (in this context)... they attack minorities without consideration for their needs.
And to say the issue is just concerning Animal rights is simply wrong. There are many other factors.. have you considred the number of hunting dogs that will have to be killed because they cant be looked after? have you considered those workers who rely on hunting to live, have you considered those people who enjoy hunting who can no longer do so, have you considered the hipocracy of the Bill passed?
