I have just had a huge row with what I thought was a friend. Basically he has booked a trip on an African safari whereby he will be hunting elephants, lions and other beautiful creatures. Obviously, it will not be on protected reserves and the company state they will only kill elderly animals or "the alpha male" so the herd/pack etc will thrive to populate. Also they are stating that hunting is good for the environment as it ironically assists the eco-system.

Now, as you may know I am an animal lover but I do hunt. However, I vehemently maintain that I have never killed anything I or a colleague would not eat. I have shot a few dears, and to be honest i was a little upset as they too are majestic animals. However, it was on land where they are bred for meat, and I am not a vegetarian. Likewise, venison is lovely and I am a crack shot so the animals did not suffer.

I will state, I am anti-snare traps and baiting. And fox-hunters can rot in hell as far as I am concerned.

So my long-winded point is, how can I convince my "friend" that this �7000 safari hunt is morally wrong. Also how can anybody enjoy shooting a giraffe or a lion for mere pleasure?

I shall not post a link but if you put in safari hunt in google images you will see beautiful animals slain being exhibited after.


let the animals roam free and wild.

Convince me otherwise.

whiffey, if you could move away from your self importance and realise I am trying to make people aware that elephant hunting is wrong, you may realise I don't really care about you nor your other log ins.

You are a kiddy fiddler. Also I swear on my fathers life (again) and I love my daddy, that you are behind the orgasm post last on B&S.

Anything pervy of kiddy eh? sicko.
Somehow I don't think we are going to get any names from dear beloved Wardy.

Night, night, make sure your cocoa is hot.



"Anything pervy of kiddy eh? sicko"

Wardy, please elaborate on these pleasant words. Just for all your fans.

whiffey all because this bedsitter dwellor knows what you are up to, please do not be too alarmed. It is not rocket science.

I have clearly riled you. For that I am not is the least apologetic, for kiddy fiddlers deserve to die.

Whiffey is a fiddler. Enough said surely













"Where's your proof Minter. You wish cancer on Grandmothers. Public school.You are a fool. A liar. Public school. Methinks. Where's your proof. Blah blah I finger small children BlaH"

zigzag, i do not wish to make an enemy of you. But your rather incessant insult of me, will do you no favours in the long run. Trust me. I will put your small tirade of abuse down to general ignorance this time.
I think it is maybe not me who is riled.. :)

Oooooooh amateur psychology from a kiddy fiddler and somebody whose best ammo is "LOSER" in capitals.

Do you really want to know my problems. Please somebody help me.

Sorry, I meant METHINKS (note block capitals) it is not me who is riled, preytell.
i must say though ,a very vivid imagination and a computer
Preytell, Whiffey?

You mean Praytell surely? Dear oh dear, why must people get so high and mighty about spelling and then get the same wrong so many times?

Wardy - they are right, nobody believes the lord of the manor garbage, you know that surely?

By the way, using the word scotch, instead of scots, to describe people from scotland, shows a lack of education.
