  1. So what do you do for your public liabilty insurance when shooting, or can't you see the point of that either?

     

    So you have to have insurance to go shooting is it the law to have insurance?

     

    how many people you know have made a claim?

     

    And what about the people who aint got permission or have not got there permission in walking distance? And the more people that go out hunting and trading in the rabbits etc the prices will go down and you get naff all.

  2. Point 1 why is that then? I can see your displeasure with those professional benfit claimers, but for those who have fallen victim to the greed and incompetence of the big bonus getters, it is not meant to be a punishment, and like I said, supplement the shopping, and replacing some items with hunted prey, would not only help to keep the cost down for those folk, but would be of benefit to their well being too. I hope you can manage to keep your job in this climate

     

    Point 2, I totally agree, and most have not paid one penny into the system in the first place, and in my opinion should not be given one penny in benefits or health care untiul they have paid in for a minimum of 5 years, regardless of race creed or colour, then lets see how popular this country is a destination for "asylum" seekers

     

    Off course you spend money on the cartridges then the stuff for maintaining the gun. Then the car to go out and hunt you food. all on £45 a week, then after your shooting you then turn to your bills Electric, gas, TV licence, Car tax, petrol, MOT, Phone and internet bills.

     

    Right kids your gonna have pigeon for breakfast pigeon for lunch and pigeon for dinner cooked outside on the fire cause we aint got no gas.

     

    Its cheaper if you go to the supermarket and buy the markets brands.

     

    If I lost my job hunting and shooting would not be on my list unless going out with somebody to drive me there.

     

    I would like to see people who have been made redundant still go out shooting while out of work.

     

    Looking for work and family comes before shooting or any other hobby.

  3. my other half didn't want a gun in the house either but eventually came round, could you not reach a compromise by not keeping any cartridges in the house, buy them from the shooting ground as you need them?

     

    its not just that, what if the kid gets hold of the gun and decides to walk down the street with it to show it to there friends? A policeman wont know if its loaded or not.

  4. What im trying to say, is if I was unemployed getting job seekers allowance, whether i dont want to work or been made redundant but wanting to work, would getting BASC membership be on the £45 a week budget? :angry: no. even if I wanted to go wildfowling I would wait till I find another job. Paying bills and food is the top priority not BASC membership. So thats why I see it as pointless.

  5. Thanks Dusty :P Not everyone wants a benefits lifestyle :P

     

     

    its not directed at you, you daft sod :good: , its about BASC charging less for not having a job. :P

     

    It was aimed at BASC.

     

    I think if you were on job seekers allowance BASC or other shooting organisations wouldn't be on the budget because its not a priority. So I think its another mindless act by the BASC. Why couldn't they give a discount to all current members and potential members? even if its just £5

     

    This is why so many people are not working they get discounts and everything at a lower price, while the people who work have to pay more to stay in work.

     

    Im on about the ones that dont want to work by the way
