When the thugs attack us and other groups, they just make us more determined to keep going. Making us stronger and helping us to show the public what kind of people they are and what kind of people support hunting.
JAMES HOCKADAY: ‘Shocking body-cam footage shows pro-fox hunting thugs confront a group of hunt saboteurs and allegedly break one of their noses. The group of animal rights campaigners say they were hounded through a field as they followed a hunt from a distance on Saturday. One of them, who only wanted to be known as ‘Charlie’, appeared to be tripped over before being head-butted. As the five members of the Southampton Hunt Sabs try to escape, the 11 hunting supporters sprayed ‘diesel, citronella and urine’ in their faces and kicked mud at them.
The video shows Charlie, 27, who identifies as non-binary, wiping blood away from their nose. They say their nose is bent to one side with the walls of their nostrils almost touching each other inside. Charlie, from Hampshire, said: ‘I was in shock at first obviously because I’d just been hit in the face quite hard. ‘I never expected it but it wasn’t a surprise that it happened, because I know what they are like’… The group were chased for seven minutes towards a main road near Dorchester, Dorset before the pro-hunt gang dispersed…
Charlie said confrontations between pro and anti fox-hunting groups happen every week. They added: ‘When the thugs attack us and other groups, they just make us more determined to keep going, we know that they are becoming more and more desperate to cause us harm, to try and intimidate us to stop going out. ‘But all they are doing is making us stronger and helping us to show the public what kind of people they are and what kind of people support hunting. ‘In a weird silver lining, this helps us out. I can show the public how violent and horrible these people are’.’ SOURCE…
