Sorry about prev. post muck up. Yes, dreadful behaviour from who ever it is in illegal drone video. Any greyhound participant with a modicum of intelligence would know that treatment scars a dog for life. If that was an employee, and the law says the employer is responsible, then lets look at the A.B.C (your A.B.C). Is Ita Buttrose responsible for a relative being a convicted drug dealer? Google Peter LLoyd (re-employed since) & Ashley Hall. Is the A.B.C responsible for these cretins nefarious activities? Is the A.B.C telling the truth about the propaganda it spins about the "YES" vote pertaining to the VOICE referendum?... I rest my case your honour.

Nothing worse than a HYPOCRITE Deputy Dicks and you know exactly what i'm talking about !
You self righteous D@#K !
I honestly don't know what you are talking about.
But now you have outed yourself as a defender of this abhorrent practice. I think you have far more questions to answer than I. Why are you so keen to defend these parasites, Mark?
I have defended no one Deputy Dicks ! If you think the industry is doomed why did you get a Breeders License ?
Some of your and my posts have been deleted so the thread/conversation has lost context. The crux of what I was saying was, we can't condone in any way what has happened. Dobbing in someone doing the wrong thing shouldn't be ridiculed as you were doing. It should be encouraged. For the short term betterment and long term future of the sport.
I love the greyhound game and I missed it. That's why I'm back. I only have a small involvement in the industry again. Only caring for and whelping a brood bitch for a friend.

I hate using a double negative. But I say there is no reason not to help them with their job if it's going to save the future of greyhound racing.I know it's "Un Australian" to dob in a mate, which is what you are implying. But I say f#$% the Murray's and others in the game doing the wrong thing. They aren't going to take me and the entire industry down with them, through their sheer bloody mindedness and down right stupidity.

Mark, you and people like you are precisely why I'm concerned for the future of the industry.

I think you are wrong Michael
I wouldn't get too comfortable if I were you
You would hope the Government will see the logic in it where one or two people's actions can tarnish a whole industry that is trying its utmost and level best and generally succeeding in its animal welfare pursuits
If you think that the Australian public and indeed the rest of the world will forget what they saw, I can say, you will be sorely mistaken
We need to stop the rot that the Anti's are putting into the minds of the general public who don't know anything about our sport

Imagine if there was a Facebook group called 'Countering lies about Greyhound Racing' with 100K members. There would be an email sent to Channel 10 demanding an instant retraction. If that fails, emails to Channel 10 advertisers advising that we will boycott their products. And then actually have the fortitude to boycott. Even if that means KF bloody C. This is how the radicals operate. They don't sit back and wait for 'authorities' to do the work. It's probably the job of the GOTBA's to do that anyway.
I'm no fan of Facebook but decided yesterday to sign up and promote the sport and the breed that I love.
Ok it is set up and I am inviting people to join
I am just sick of the BS that is being created by the media
Time to fight back guys
Our Authorities won't do it... we need to get on board
Please everyone get on board. Share. Lets get numbers, its all about numbers.
We are up to nearly 500 members in 5 full days. I would like 1,000 members by Saturday
Anyone who is a greyhound participant and connected to Greyhound Racing from anywhere in the world is welcome to join.
Please join and lets get this movement rolling

When I first saw this post I thought it was about another issue I've heard involving the same people and a supposed hair sample concern. I seriously hope it isn't true. Fair dinkum elements of SA greyhounds are self-destructing and dragging us all down with them.
Hmmm, is this why the Victa dogs were scratched from Angle Park tonight?
