Stop hunting with rifles

I AM writing regarding the recent issue of the fox hunting ban.

I cannot believe that this is even an issue – the cruel and unnecessary sport has been banned and most people were happy about this.

Why do people need to see the blood of an animal in the name of sport?

Also, why are we subjected to men hunting wild rabbits and birds armed

with air rifles and dogs?

This should be a punishable offence in this day and age.
