I totally disagree. I'd bother to write up why but I have work to do.

Hunting is just one of those things that I hate with a passion. What with living in the middle of fecking nowhere, we used to get hunts up here all the time - 8am on a Sunday morning, hunting horns blaring and dogs barking with a load of pissed up snobs with guns trailing around.
My three nearest neighbours are farmers, and they're all against sport hunting. The only people that have time for it are the "farmers" who have strawberry floating mansions and employ hands to do all the actual work while they attend uppity pseudo-racist parties with similar twats. Shooting vermin I have no qualm with at all; for livestock-protecting purposes it's part of the job. But people that actively chase an animal around for miles on horseback for no reason other than personal pleasure need a good kicking.

I have no idea how you'd even start defending it to be honest.

I shouldn't need to defend it really. There aren't any in (IMHO) valid excuses for why fox hunting was band in the first place. In fact I'd like to see a good argument without any classist remarks. I also object to the way the law was pushed through the House of Lords in a very undemocratic way.
As for "Hunting & Fishing for sport". Your problem is what? That people enjoy it?
