“To the animal-rights activists at least in such tragic moments, which affect a family, an entire community, the Lord Jesus Christ should give them even a single moment of intelligence, to keep quiet.
Unfortunately, we too must sometimes bear patience for their ignorance that goes beyond values to be defined as inhumane ", this is how President Stella expresses his indignation on some pro-anti-hunt statements regarding theBovolenta accident.
“The undersigned, also on behalf of the National President, of all the National Management, of all the Federcaccia Veneto and Federcaccia Padova Management and all the Federcaccia members participate in the mourning that struck Sandro Zanettin and his family. An immense tragedy that certainly leaves a very deep wound. Disasters that we all would never want to happen, just as we do not want politics to exploit them for their own use and consumption only to try to grab a few votes ”.
"To the Deputy of PD Gessica Rostellato, who spoke in the press, I say as a father of a family as well as a Federcaccia executive, that he is not only concerned with getting laws passed so that minors cannot go to hunting with parents, but that goes much further. In fact, the misfortunes that affect the hunting world in this way are very rare, but I remind you that unfortunately thousands of minors die in Italy for very other eventualities, and perhaps you, as a Deputy, should reflect on the precautions to be brought up for discussion in Parliament ".
"I still say to the Hon. Rostellato that I had the pleasure of having my son hunting with me many times as a minor and I was certainly gratified when he got up with me in the morning at 5:00. I wouldn't have been so happy if I had seen him come back from a nightclub at that time ”.
