Also 'Lombard Hunters Association supports the initiative of the Brothers of Italy parliamentarian in the Chamber who, through a question, directly asked the Minister of the Interior, Matteo Salvini, to intervene drastically to ban all those animal rights manifestations that they do use of verbal violence, intimidation, and in some cases of aggression, disturb the hunting activity and the demonstrations, see Hit Show, where the hunters are present.
"For some time we have been recording an escalation on the part of these fringes of animal rights extremism, even during hunting, which aim to provoke a reaction in order to to have hunters' firearms revoked which, we repeat, can boast a clean criminal record. Up to now our hunters have always known how to maintain self-control by avoiding confrontation but now the time has come, before the irreparable happens, to stop them "- declares Carlo Bravo, regional president of ACL who hopes immediate and positive feedback by Minister Salvini. "These vandal and instrumental actions, targeted - reiterates the President Bravo - must be stopped and prevented and that is why after this question we expect a clear and clear stance by a minister who has always declared himself a supporter of hunting and our traditions.
We ask for respect and we ask that the relevant bodies and justice sanction these people, often hooded, as we are sanctioned when we make mistakes. It is not possible that you cannot identify them, report them and as you do with the violent fringes of football inform him of the DASPO, or the impediment to access the events ". On several occasions we have witnessed these animal rights “bliz” in the village festivals, during the hunting activity, in the fairs. Just in Vicenza the regional vice president of ACL, Eugene Casella, intervened in defense of a young dad with his son at the release of Hit Show, was surrounded, mocked, insulted and threatened with death. Only the prompt intervention of the police prevented everything from turning into a brutal and savage aggression. Now we at ACL are also waiting for the Minister of the Interior to speak quickly and give a clear answer.
