Death threats for the regional councilor Floriano Massardi of the Northern League in the face of its commitment to some changes to the regional law, changes aimed at simplifying the hunting practice for thousands of hunters. This is what our president of Vallio Terme collected on his Facebook page and is bringing his experience to the territory and his passion in his work as an institutional representative. This is but the latest manifestation of a radical animalism that is poisoning the hunting days of our many associates. Last but not least, the attack on a federcacciatore from Bergamo literally attacked by six individuals in Lodi in his shed. Below are the statements of Lorenzo Bertacchi, president of the Federcaccia di Bergamo reported on the official website of the association to which we not only join but have nothing to add.
"We are here to say enough, it is time for hunters to be protected from these infamous attacks. Six animal rights activists hooded against an 81-year-old, shot before the escape of these criminals. Among the first to be close to the hunter of Almenno San Bartolomeo, attacked in the course of his regularly carried out activity, was the President of Federcaccia Bergamo Lorenzo Bertacchi, who thus commented on the incident with a firm stance. “The attack on Lino Pessina is a news that leaves you dismayed. Six "heroic animal rights activists" who kick and punch an 81-year-old man is a snapshot of the drift of our days and speaks volumes about who the violent are in the ongoing cultural clash between animal rights overflowing with love and ferocious hunters .
It is not acceptable that groups of people go around organized in bands in search of hunters or fishermen to sneak up to get them to bite into a provocation or worse, to move on to physical aggression. Two years ago a young man was attacked at the Casazza Fair. Last year in Cremona to a volunteer during the capture of the hares the peaceful animalists cracked a vertebra hitting him, now the attack on Mr. Pessina. And in between various damages, insults, threats. And with the press that never misses an opportunity to distort the hunt and the rules that so rigidly regulate it. We remember that hunting is a legitimate activity, rooted and useful, not only from an economic point of view, to the whole of society and it is unacceptable that animal rights activists are people who can feel legitimated or justified in shaming and now physically attack.
Federcaccia Bergamo will give the full legal support to his hunter card and trusts in the effective identification of these six criminals, because these are not "heroes of our day" but simple criminals. And he hopes that decent people open their eyes, inquire about how we really go hunting, and only then draw the conclusions, aware that on the other side behind the slogans in favor of animals there is in reality only hatred towards man ”.
