Jump To Comment: 1 2 3An update on that case referred to: The ICC has been ordered to pay a whopping 1.5 million Euro to Greenband. Added to the 640,000 it has to pay in damages that's a fair whack. Lovely hurling! A great day for the hares of Ireland and one in the eye for all the sickos who get their thrills from watching these animals running in terror from blooded dogs at coursing "festivals"...
We'll cheer and slug beer when the legal eagles close in and tear the ICC apart, limb from limb.
Now that's my kind of bloodsport!
There seems to something of a civil war raging in the greyhound industry, tensions between coursing and greyhound industry etc and this is reflected in the battle between two internet forums supposedly looking after the interests of the greyhound industry...Greyhound Data and Greyhound nuts.
Read this and you'll get an insight into the thinking of people who like seeing hares terrorized for jollies and bashing elderly or underperforming greyhounds over the head with spades: And as you read it, just consider: a recent posting from a coursing fan on Greyhound nuts forum calmly advocated using live cats and rabbits to blood dogs..an even tying two live animals "back to back" and feeding them live to the dogs....Not one other forum member took these guys to task...what a lovely "industry" that is!

Would it not be heaven on earth if those who find pleasure in watching animals killing other animals, in watching animals getting injured and dying, wild animals living captive lives to entertain in circuses, opened their eyes and looked at the beauty of stags, greyhounds,horses, hares, elephants and realised that they have no right to use them, to terrify and kill them.
Man is meant to protect our planet and the creatures that live on it. Not terrorise and kill for their entertainment.
