FINALLY! Looks like the Brits are about to ban fox hunting!!!

[MoonRiver]

What an unbelievably barbaric and hideous practice, exclusively supported by the "upper classes" of course. Naturally, the House of Lords (cough, cough) voted against the ban, but it looks like Commons will push it through!! Here's a big heads up to long persecuted British foxes!

1. Good news!

Now if we could only end bullfighting....

2. Oh, boy, I wish. Britain is slightly more civilized than Mexico.

Are there even any animal rights groups in Mexico and South America?

3. Yes. In South America

there are some very, um, rabid folks that are organizing. Mexico is a territory that hasn't seen much unification. All in due time, I guess...

4. I am particulary worried about an increase in cock-fighting

and dog-fighting in this area of NC as there has been a tremendous influx of hispanics from Mexico here in the last five years.
