matt's debates

because matt's debating is not a crime

Do you know what pisses me off?

These hunting tossers who think it’s OK to ignore the new legislation about the hunting ban. I’m not really either way inclined about the hunting ban, because I don’t agree with hunting, but then again I don’t really agree with banning stuff. But what irritates me are the hunting folk who are flat out ignoring the ban because they think they’re above the law. It’s not what the ban is about, it’s the principle. What’s to say that when the government inevitably bans smoking in pubs and clubs, that smokers say “actually, no, I won’t stop smoking”. I’m sure the hunters would have a thing to say about that. And I’m sure they’re reasonably fond of various other laws we have in place… like not being able to kill people, that nicking stuff is wrong and so on… so what makes them think that they’re so special that they can flagrantly disregard the law just because it doesn’t suit them?
