It would have been enough for the commissioner Birindelli not to venture on rough and slippery terrain to prove himself at all costs first of the class or more foresighted in the publication of the exemption to face yet another discounted instrumental anti-hunt appeal. Not to mention an administrative procedure where the words "legal certainty" have no meaning and the postponement to September 26 of a discussion on the merits instead the blatant sense of a mockery.
Especially in the eyes of those who, having fulfilled the innumerable bureaucratic, administrative and fiscal duties - a few hours after the long-awaited hunting activity resumes - are exposed to very heavy sanctioning risks. Only responsible word of mouth among hunters has avoided unfortunate situations.
This situation cannot pass like calm water under a bridge; there are those who have made a mistake, there are responsibilities, incapacities that must be reported, so that they do not recur in the future. The lack of institutional farsightedness on a delicate subject such as hunting, which is systematically the subject of transversal attacks by politics and a variegated animal rights world, is the first mistake.
The responsibility, on the part of the Lazio Region, in listening to the propinators of dangerous shortcuts in the name of vaunted representatives, which as demonstrated have the flavor of small individual policies in defense of interests that are no longer sustainable from the world of hunting, is the second mistake.
To date we can only complain that we had feared him; but it is of little use, even though we feel responsible for not having shouted it loud enough to make it heard by all hunters, who need to understand that it is not always true that the one who offers the most is the best. In short, more foresight, measure, balance rather than stroking the hair even to those who become champions of the most everything, of amazing game bags - to then instead be condemning us to total renunciation.
Today they are silent, representative of nothing, they no longer argue, they do not boast friendships or closeness with those in charge, disappeared, migrated elsewhere like the turtledoves that after 1 and 2 September disappeared from our skies and - we will have to wait another twelve months - to caress the hope of driving out a few remnants of a migration that has largely ended in early September.
May it serve as a lesson, that hunters keep memories of these things, consumed between farce and bitterness. For our part, we will be vigilant and will continue to tenaciously preside over the future of responsible and popular hunting, respecting the laws of nature and a healthy environment.
