As I've posted earlier, if there is a line to be drawn then I'd put it at being able to make a conscious decision after understanding the risks involved.Some cracking posts in here.
Unfortunately the horse I backed finished outside the top four.
As for cruelty to horses I'm guessing it's because some died? If we ban horse racing because of that what else do we ban?
Motorsports? Drivers and riders have died over the past decade taking part in car and bike racing.
Football? Players have had to retire or have passed because of health issues related to the fitness requirements. Let's knock that sport on the head too? Too dangerous.
Rugby? Repeated concussions causing problems later on in life? Make it tag rugby only and no scrums.
As information changes (or science/technology improves) you might need to amend the rules (e.g. heading a football).
So you think we should allow bullfighting?Hey Sherlock here’s a tip for you? Why not ban traffic from the roads so foxes and badgers can stroll safely and pheasants can fly without fear of being killed?
Surely worth another 100 posts from you……
So you think we should allow fox-hunting?
Or do you think should we take everything on it's own merits and make rational decisions based on all the factors involved?
