I bet angling would be banned if fish were furry

Article Abstract:

Those who are opposed to introducing a ban on fox hunting in the UK have resorted to disinformation and bullying to convey their views. They have put forward many arguments in favour of retaining fox hunting, but the only important issue is whether they should be prevented from doing something that they enjoy and that causes no harm to others. Those who believe that hunting is cruel should consider whether they feel strongly enough about protecting foxes to stop others indulging in a pastime they greatly enjoy.
