Please do not close Lewes High St on Boxing day to allow a gathering of the Southdown and Eridge Hunt.

Stop showing and giving support to Savagery. Or maybe you are happy to encourage terrorism?

Can normal ordinary people not be allowed to enjoy Xmas without the harrowing & awful knowledge of what foxess everywhere will be suffering on Boxing day? Can Xmas not be a time of peace for animals too? Boxing day hunts ruin my Xmas. Please don't allow these hunts to go ahead.

It's time this out-dated practice was banned for good. 805 of the British population think fox hunting should be confined to the history books. Please stop the hunt.

Not only is this totally illegal, it is totally immoral! Stop finding excuses to slaughter our wildlife! It appears it is down to the people of his country now to enforce our Laws as these incidents are not being dealt with in the correct manner. Reeks of corruption and back-handers. Do NOT be a part of it.

Fox hunting ( often disguised as 'trail following' ) is a barbaric pastime that decent people without psychological issues find repugnant. PLEASE Councillors show you are not amongst the small minority of people who find ripping living creatures apart entertaining.

One; hunting is an outdated man-made tradition of recent times (i.e. since the beginning of time) - so supporting hunting is simply supporting a man-made pass-time - they wouldn't close roads off for an equally man-made tradition of the egg and spoon race, would they?
Two; Humans no longer need to hunt for anything, we have come a long way since those instincts were possibly needed.
Three; It's cruelty to animals (whether they are wild or not).
Four; please help us to teach our children/grandchildren that to show kindness and compassion is the right thing to do. All they'll learn from growing up with these 'hunts' going on in their environment, is that 'hunting' (and I urge you to seriously consider what that term means), is an okay thing to do.
Why would anyone need to go out for anything other than a normal horse ride or a walk with their dogs?

Members of fox hunts are secretive about what they do and are aggressive to peaceful protestors who just want to observe the illegal activities taking place. The hunters then resort to violence and cause serious injuries to the protestors. They must not be allowed to brag about their hunt by parading through the town. It is offensive.
