Also, I would say that eating meat is a bit different than spending you leisure time hunting down and killing an animal for the lols

Yeah I understand , like I said it is strange & unkind the whole fox hunting especially where a vet is concerned.

And Amy has every right to refuse that vet if she wants.

But some would argue if the person still does a good job then her personal hobby shouldn't matter .

My mum is fuming but I am standing firm, I can't hand-on-heart support a vet who enjoys fox hunting.

Am I being unreasonable?



I understand your views
You have a right to change vets.

Fox Hunting is banned
though

You could of course argue that, I think it comes down to the individual though and how much this particular "sport" bothers them. For me personally, it would make me look at that person very differently and I would not be comfortable, indirectly I guess funding that hobby for them, if you get what I mean?

Yeah I completely get it , I'm not a fan of Fox hunting either . But I'm not sure I'd refuse the person's service based on that :shrug: . Plus what if the vet never shared their love of Fox hunting , you would still go to them without ever knowing . So it's one of those strange things.

The reviews weren't fake, unless she doesn't actually hunt and that's fake news?

I take it the reviews are for her work at the vets and nothing else?

blood sports like fox hunting are on their way out so stay pressed
to enjoy killing an animal is beyond the pale, for a vet to do that is shameful

That would be your choice and obviously if you don't know something you can't react to it. At the end of the day the woman is running a business caring for peoples beloved pets, she must have known that partaking in that particular hobby would be controversial and may cause people to stop using her service because of it and she made a choice to do it anyway so... :shrug:

They weren't lies so not fake news and not slander or whatever crime you were suggesting those that left them should be prosecuted for. As far as I'm aware it isn't against the law to leave a review stating why you wouldn't use a service?

The reviews are about the service from customers and NOT virtue signalling by teenagers

I hope they get rightly taken down and the idiots banned by Facebook

Aren’t vets often payed to help humanely cull pests like foxes, rabbits and moles? ‘Vet is a Fox hunter’ might be a harsh headline, but it might not necessarily be that simple

trying to be polite all I can say is that I don't really care for what you're saying in this thread :shrug:

Niamh. 07-01-2019 11:21 AM

I do wonder LT why you're so supportive of this Fox killing Vet but called this lady ignorant and arrogant? :think:

Yet again you seem surprised that not everyone in the world shares your worldview

there's a world of difference between humane and swift cull and chasing an animal to exhaustion and watch it being rip apart
can you not see that?

Because it is not related in any way. 2 separate cases.

that's a bit too over the top i think, just kick them out of the specific social group on facebook so they can't see these fox hunting stuff anymore

you can't ban someone from facebook, they maybe have their social lives on there with family etc
