• Chair of Hunting Kind says he has built legal case to obtain same protection as Roma and LGBTQ+ people. They have prepared a legal case to try to prove that hunters are an ethnic minority whose hunts should be protected under equality laws.

  • Ed Swales, the chair of Hunting Kind, claims he has been advised by a leading human rights lawyer that hunters unequivocally qualify for legal protection under the UK Equality Act 2010.

  • Speaking to the FieldsportsChannel podcast, Swales said: “The qualifications of an ethnic group, there are five of them, and we hit everyone straight in the bullseye.”

    They don’t eat the foxes, do they? I’m under the impression it gets a lot of shit compared to all other forms of hunting both because it’s a rich failson hobby but also because it’s just for the sport of it, like big game hunting

      Do they even take the fur? Regardless, they’re a bunch of chumps. If you’re gonna kill animals for fun, the least you could do is make things a fair fight. Having a horse, a dozen bloodhounds, and whatever guns doesn’t seen very sportsmanlike.

      The hunters should only be allowed to hunt on foot naked using daggers. And the foxes should be replaced by Americans with guns.
