Big crowds at Clonmel National Coursing Meeting

[SeanieFitz]

Yeah sure, watching a dog rip apart a hare for sport is the trait of a perfect psychologically healthy human.

Sure why don't we bring back the Roman Games while we're at it. Fancy your chances against a gladiator?

aren't the dogs muzzled?

Blueshirts as well, as they are usually the kind of people behind this depraved activity.

if people in the countryside had the fun pastimes you dubs had like killing each other and putting bodies in suitcases there would be no need for coursing

Eh, two things:

Dubs do coursing. And Dubs did not put that body in the suitcase!

Are we correct in assuming that your comment is also directed at the original poster who commented about "rednecks" who are involved in coursing ( as well as myself who commented on his brass neck in doing so )?

Dogs are muzzeled. There's only two of them not a baying pack.

The object is to turn the hare a number of times the first dog to do so is declared the winner. The dogs are then re-caught as is the hare.

The coursing club supply and maintain the hares for the coursing. Although the hare is "worried" it is unfair to label this sport "barbaric" It is IMO not like cock fighting or fox hunting.

People shouldn't be so quick to assume the worst.

Look at your own brass neck before pointing the finger at anyone else don't assume anything as you have done here What I'm saying grow up a bit. By the way you are very fond of using the (we)

There is no justification for this barbaric activity in a civilized society. Under the current regime there is little chance that it will be outlawed.
