davo, really, you're a bit of a worry: "atomou, who are you to take away from a mans family?"
I'm simply protesting against a brutal, barbaric activity that can be potentially lethal and certainly perilous to the health of those practising it. I would also protest against hurdles for horses, drug pushing and against many other activities, which, no doubt would take the livelihood off many people.
It's a civil right in a civilised society -or is this not one of them?
