Though I support our country's stance on gun laws, it does my tits in at times with the 'you can't camp here mate', 'you can't have a fire there mate', 'you need a license to do this, that and that mate'. So many fucking hoops to jump through to catch some rabbits for food.

I only want to kill some rabbits ffs
