The news, released by the authoritative newspaper on Sun 24 Hours, which tells of the participation of some animal rights extremism groups in the General States, organized in these days in Rome by the Government, certainly did not please us, above all because it seems very undemocratic to have listened to the protectionists and not the hunters. But our indignation became disconcerted when we discovered the contents of the document presented to Minister Costa and to President Conte. How is the country relaunched for these gentlemen? Abolishing hunting, closing zoos, circuses and theme parks, closing farms and making all Italians vegan.
Well, let's hope that the proposals presented at the event were not all like this, otherwise poor Italy. We obviously do not intend to enter into the merits of the political goodness of the initiative, but certainly, despite the environment we care more than many living room animal rights activists, we will fiercely oppose this vegan drift, unfortunately also supported by some sectors of the government. The hunt and the hunters do not touch !! Just as you don't touch the millenary traditions related to animal breeding. This is the message that Arci Caccia wants to send to the Prime Minister and the Minister of the Environment.
Of course, in an emergency like this, it would have been important give politics and hunters a strong signal of unity. For this reason, we have been late in coming out with our press release, urging instead the position taken by the Control Room. Unfortunately, once again, we must register the sacrifice of the Unity of the Hunting World and therefore of the interests of hunters, on the altar of protagonism and membership. Dear Sirs, this way you don't go anywhere ... Let's take an example from animal rights activists: a thousand acronyms that, presenting themselves united, with a single document, made themselves heard and maybe they will get something. While some hunters, as their primary target, seem to have only one more tile.
