What a vile and disgusting way to put forward a protest against the proposed hunting ban.

The hunting fraternity show their lack of compassion towards animals in general, never mind their quarry.

The sight of those dead animals and the fact that they drove a stake through the heart of the horse filled me with disgust and sorrow for the lack of dignity that these poor animals deserved in death.

Any sympathy I had for the protesters and, as a traditionalist, I had some, has now evaporated, as I am sure it has for others.

I cannot believe the stupidity of these hunting morons who believed this would further their cause.
