Re: Poor sheep !

Oh my goodness ! Dirty bar steward. I wonder how he's managed it, sheep are extremely strong and holding onto them is virtually impossible if you don't know how to. Maybe it was the farmer, or maybe he got dragged around the field a bit.

Re: Poor sheep !

My friend knows a bloke who 'interferes' with mares, would you believe.

He as been banned from keeping them for something like 10 years, but he has still got more tucked away not far from here.

Hope he gets his nuts kicked off - sicko.

Re: Poor sheep !

Yes police were called and to be fair they arrived quite quickly and he was arrested, it seems it's not first time either, they seemed to know him quite well.

I'm a pacifist really but I could actually happily mete out one of the punishments mentioned. The farmer was beside himself with anger it was only with persuasion the police persuaded him not to use his shot gun.

He had incapacitated the sheep to make it less dangerous.

It's made us really look at humans as pretty awful things, it's been a while since we thought they were particularly nice but we've never been quite so disgusted before. Luckily grace slept through it all because I didn't fancy explaining it to her !

Re: Poor sheep !

Until animals are considered more worthy than they are in the eyes of the law are present, there will never be sufficient deterrant or punishment.

Very true police said he'd likely get a fine and time to pay it, if he did that to a human he'd be locked up !
