@audrey pard Whilst it's true to say he *could* have orchestrated it himself, Packham is held, by some, as public enemy number 1 for the country sports community. Packham doesn't need to hang dead birds outside his own house to show us in a bad light, some of the comments below, by those in our community, do us no help whatsoever. Means, motive and opportunity. In likelihood it's one of the community who had all 3. Hopefully we'll be back to shooting the birds soon.

Given that he has really got gun freaks backs up, I'd say it's highly likely that one of them did it, along with the threatening letter. I do think that some people are slightly over reacting, with ridiculous statements about what should happen to packham, I mean some of them aren't very well educated, evident by their poor grasp of the English language.

SRS: I'd really like to get your take on the return of englishshooting. Even as a yank, I used to enjoy the englishshooting channel. It was largely a guy that was a shooting enthusiast like me. Where I think that I made the mistake was thinking that he was a firearm advocate for people that may enjoy the sport. Since then, the powers that be have taken what is considered a "privilege" to own a gun there. As it seems, he hasn't taken it well. He seems willing to join the side of those that would take what I consider to be your right in hopes that the same powers will take his apology if he is truly repentant. It really has been a sickening sight to see a guy reach these depths. He seems to willing to bend the knee, he'll bend both knees and so so as often as it takes. Is there a guy that lords over such things in your country? Should somebody should notify his wife of Callum? I ask your opinion because you seem to make no such deep throated apologies for being you. You're a sportsman, you come from that angle, but you haven't demeaned anybody that would enjoy firearms for a sport or reason other than your own. You're not what we call a "Fudd" here in the former colonies. Am I wrong? Why do I ask? Englishooting returned after being threatened to take his rights. They did it anyways. Englishshooting then posted a video pointing out the dishonesty of the media. I like that and it should be done. But wait.......... Amazingly, he was SHOCKED when the author of the lie didn't retract and apologize when he was exposed. Well.....duh....was there another outcome that was anticipated? Really? But holy shit..... it got so much worse for all of us. He then spent 1/3 of the video agreeing with the lying author, reinforcing the current pointless regulations and then..... advocating for more regulation. More.....more?...WTF. When I criticized him on his channel feedback, he scolded me as not seeing "the bigger picture". The picture as it seems to me, is him rolling over in the hopes that his tyrant will lovingly scratch his belly. They won't. They'll likely take the opportunity that they've been given to gut him. Do you see how some of us on the outside looking in might view englishshooting as a detriment to (ironically) shooting in England?
