Question

Would you go hunting if you were invited by the British royal family?

Answer 1

absolutely not the very notion of hobnobbing with that lot on horseback hunting sickens me.

Answer 2

I would have to say, yes.  Not a fox hunt though, as I have no training in that..  I have heard that the queen is quite a pleasant partner to walk with in the wilderness.  I have heard that Phillip is a delightful gentleman with a vast knowledge of herbs and nature in general.  

I think it would be nice to be around such interesting people with such deep knowledge in any setting.

Answer 3

I would.  

Although I am not sure if I would be comfortable being around a prince or princess with a gun in my hands.  There would be probably be someone around to blow your head off if you even started to point it in the wrong direction.  That's a lot of presure to remember your gun saftey and maintain muzzle control.

On the plus side they might lend you a gun.  I have wanted to try shooting an H&H for a while.  See if it is worth the fifty thousand or so dollars.

Answer 4

I would be very happy to meet them and go hunting with them  and I would not expect to get anything but just to be with them would be great

Answer 5

too right they have the best stock of deer and game to eat

Answer 6

yes but i wouldn't actually shoot anything, except for maybe prince charles. jk jk. anything to get near those 2 amazingly gorgeous princes!

Answer 7

No, I See No 'Sport' in Hunting, Even if "Invited" by Them....!!

Answer 8

Hunting is not banned in the UK.  Only hunting with dogs is banned.

Answer 9

No, in fact I would have great pleasure in ripping up the invitation. I used to be a sab and the damage the dogs do to the fox is absurdly cruel, while the toffs all stand their having a good laugh...it really does make me sick!

Answer 10

I would accept their invitation before d**k Cheney's.

Answer 11

Considering that hunting is banned, then no.

Answer 12

No I wouldn't feel comfortable hanging around them myself , I'm a blue jeans and t-shirt kind of guy : )

Answer 13

Yeah, I'd shoot the old hag (Lizard II) and then make out with Wills.  After all, he is the boy who WILL be king.  (Quoting People Magazine, 1999)

Answer 14

Only if I were a social equal, royalty myself, in a prosperous country with a throne. I think they are probably pleasant people to those they consider their equals  and who are familiar with their ways. Otherwise it's a social minefield.

Answer 15

Both royals and plebs can equally enjoy snipe hunting and wild goose chases.  Let's go.

Answer 16

If it weren't banned already I would have to decline fox hunting.  If you still have other kinds of hunting I would go with them if we were going to eat the game since to me it is immoral to kill just for sport.  

  Then maybe we could have a barbecue and Prince Philip could be the cook if he still likes to do that .

I'd really rather go hiking or riding with them or some other outdoorsy pursuit they're into. Take the corgis for a walk.

Answer 17

NO

-SS (-:Smiling Star-:)

Answer 18

Yes ... AS THE FOX who annouced the ARRIVAL

    And I would slow down enough to get caught

    Thickets and thorns - ALL THE SAME to Me.

Answer 19

Yes, I probably would, because I'd feel rude not accepting such a prestigious invitation.

Answer 20

If " I " was invited by the Royal family to go hunting

Then that would only be in Tescos.

As that is the only place they could afford to shop.

Answer 21

Sounds like fun. hope they don't mind that my attire consists of jeans and t shirts.

Answer 22

Absolutely not. Its barbaric & needs to be banned.

Answer 23

sure:)

Answer 24

No, I do not hunt and kill animals.  The only way I would shoot an animal is with my camera.   I am not into search and destroy games.  Not even if my hosts were royal.

Answer 25

Hunting is banned in the UK , but even if it was not, I would reluctantly have to decline the invitation. I do not approve of this type of activity and would politely explain this to the family. I doubt that they would banish me to the Tower, I am sure they would respect my feelings.

Answer 26

Yes- it would be a nice comfortable vacation, and I would not have to actually HIT anything I happened to be shooting in the general direction of.

Answer 27

I think that there is nothing wrong with hunting if the hunters actually consume what they kill.  I'm not a big fan of hunting for the sport.  Another reason I find it hard to be anti-leather.  I can eat the roast beef and the cheeseburger...why waste the skin?
