Tetragrammaton Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 (edited) Why would the British state need to have an exemption for Grouse Shooting during a pandemic?!........ https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/sep/14/hunting-in-england-exempt-from-rule-of-six-covid-19-restrictions Quote Grouse shooting and hunting with guns in England are among outdoor activities exempted from the government’s “rule of six” coronavirus regulations. Confirmation that the latest health protection regulations permit groups of up to 30 to take part in any “sports gathering” was published only minutes before coming into force. According to one report, an internal government row over whether bloodsports should be exempted was alleged to have delayed their release. Like its previous versions, the Health Protection (Coronavirus, Restrictions) (No. 2) (England) (Amendment) (No. 4) Regulations 2020, was produced too late for most people to read it before they were subject to its legally enforceable rules. An accompanying government coronavirus guidance page provides clearer instructions on “what you can and can’t do” from Monday 14 September. It contains a list of sports and physical activities in which people can participate in groups of more than six. The list includes mainstream sports like football, rugby, cricket, and hockey as well as less popular sports such as curling, polo and shooting. The reference to shooting is the only one qualified with a note that says: “Including hunting and paintball that requires a shotgun or firearms certificate licence”. A link takes readers to the British Association for Shooting and Conservation (BASC). In a statement on its website, BASC said: “The ‘rule of six’ restrictions brought in today could have disrupted game shooting which usually includes eight or more people. However, the exemption will allow shooting to operate under Covid-safe guidance.” Ian Bell, the organisation’s chief executive, said: “The government’s decision to allow shooting to continue in its current format in England is the right one.” A report in the Huffington Post claimed that a Cabinet Office subcommittee meeting to discuss the implications for sports and bloodsports had been cancelled. The news sparked derisive comments on Twitter. One parent commented: “Looks like my youngest is going grouse shooting with his friends for his third birthday. Thanks Tories!” A UK government spokesperson said: “We have exempted over 30 types of sport, exercise and physical activity such as football, rugby and other outdoor pursuits. “Outdoor activity is safer from a transmission perspective, and it is often easier to social distance. Where such activities take place, safety measures must be taken including conducting a risk assessment and compliance with Covid-19 secure guidance.” The Scottish government is under pressure to exclude grouse moors and field sports from its latest restrictions, after Scotland’s legislation, which also came into force on Monday, said any organised activity taking place outdoors and organised by a business or a sporting body, was permissible. The Scottish Health Protection (Coronavirus) (Restrictions) (Scotland) Regulations 2020 do not clearly specify whether there is a limit to the number of people taking place in those activities. Alison Johnstone, the Scottish Green party’s health spokesperson, said having this type of exemption was ludicrous. “This cannot be allowed to happen in Scotland,” she said. “The tiny minority who derive pleasure from killing wildlife are not more important than the thousands who are being kept apart from seeing friends and family. 30 people should not be able to gather to shoot grouse when 30 people cannot attend a wake for a lost loved one. “The Scottish government need to urgently clarify the Scottish rules so that this doesn’t happen.” Colin Shedden, Scottish director of the British Association of Shooting and Conservation, said Scottish coronavirus rules had allowed grouse and pheasant shooting for some time, so long as the organisers followed the correct physical distancing and hygiene regulations. He said the Scottish government had approved coronavirus rules for field sports drawn up by the BASC in July. He added Westminster has “now caught up with where we are in Scotland. There’s a framework which allows shooting to take place in the countryside, socially distanced, people bringing their own food, along with safe hygiene respected at all times.” Kit Malthouse, the policing minister at the Home Office, has encouraged people to report their neighbours for not complying with the new “rule of six” coronavirus restriction as it came into force in England. On Monday, social gatherings of more than six people were made illegal, with people facing fines of up to £3,200 if they do not abide by the measure in indoor and outdoor settings. Malthouse said concerned neighbours should ring the non-emergency police number 101 to report violations. “We are in discussions about what reporting mechanisms there might be, but there is obviously the non-emergency number that people can ring and report issues they wish to,” he told BBC Radio 4’s Today programme. However, in a Monday briefing Downing Street said officers would not begin imposing fines immediately on those breaking the rules. When was the last time they done a ritual sacrifice? When was the last time they could get access to vulnerable children and take them on to a shooting estate? If there are any animal rights people here pay attention to who is coming and going on the shooting estates. You will be shocked to see members of the UK government & members of the British Royal Family (aka the Six Ravens Family) all making a beeline to these places to partake in their blood rituals. The way these types of shooting estates are designed they all have discreet wooded areas where an occult altar/grotto will be placed in a ritualistic position. The child/victim will be manipulated into going into these woods. These shooting estates are used as cover for a form of occult initiation in their "tradition" (as they call it). The 1980's horror movie Damian; The Omen II actually revealed the concepts behind this in the Military Boarding School scenes, where the child is made an offer and an impossible choice. However i can say with some knowledge on these issues they have missed very important key dates this year for their rituals. So there is going to be heavy heavy karmic repercussions this year for all of them. This is long overdue.

rideforever Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Occult powers and practices are done only by certain kinds of people, people who have esoteric access to that kind of world, and who are cunning and smart. Looking on the faces of the Royal Family all very normal bored and superficial. They are not occultists. People who are behind them may be ... like epstein / maxwell they have the occult kind of face. The problem started when they took to the financiers because they themselves lost conviction and replaced it with banking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HistoryIsComplex Posted September 16, 2020 Share Posted September 16, 2020 Anyone who fires a BULLET at an INNOCENT ANIMAL with a HUNTING RIFLE is EVER SO SLIGHTLY DERANGED IMHO. I've never seen a wild animal and thought "COOL! LET ME SHOOT THIS ANIMAL!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bolly011 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Anyone who slices a innocent living organism apart with a sickle is ever so slightly deranged imho. What is the difference between plants and animals? Is it just sentience? Because regardless, you are ending a life to feed yours. And that's the brutal truth.

I've never seen a wild animal and thought "COOL! LET ME SHOOT THIS ANIMAL!" They do eat the grouse you know. It's not just 'trophy' hunting. And they use shotguns - expensive ones - not rifles. It's not my idea of a fun day out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chef Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) Great. I thought I would get away with shooting season this year. Assuming this exempts pheasant, quail and partridge. Last year my landlord rented the adjacent land to a shooting company, the bastards think they can trample round our garden as they please. Looks like I will be digging holes in my garden after all, see how they like being game. Edited September 17, 2020 by Chef 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oddsnsods Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Maybe hinting at a peasant hunt for the great reset. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe there are a few notable differences. A nervous system, for one. You know, the ability to feel pain in the same capacity as we do.

And plant agriculture kills plenty of animals also, so to kill the least amount of animals would be to eat seasonally and grow your own food.

Tetragrammaton Posted September 22, 2020 Author Share Posted September 22, 2020 (edited) As if right on cue Channel 4 News does a brilliant piece on these freaks who are travelling to the shooting estates. notice they all cover their faces to hide their identities. Its a 6 min video piece with Alex Thomson; https://www.channel4.com/news/is-queen-about-to-turn-her-back-on-the-grouse-shooting-industry https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=aLCr2CBZd5c&feature=emb_logo Things to observe; 1: Why does the Queen need to own a shooting estate? 2: Note the real nastiness, disturbing, hateful behaviour of the keepers and attendees. Would you let your children near any of those men? 3: Also note the decommissioned military vehicles that they are using on the estate.
