BY attacking fox-hunters with hammers, pickaxes and spades, hunt saboteurs have shown they have no more regard for life than the hunters they oppose.

How do they reconcile the idea that it is acceptable to inflict suffering on a fellow living creature - a human being - whilst condemning hunters for doing the same? Hasn't such behaviour brought them down to the level of the very people they oppose. Isn't it about time the anti-hunt brigade practiced what they preach?
