Default British Government to Outlaw Fox Hunting

The AP is reporting that there is rioting in the streets of London protesting the banning of Fox hunting with hounds.

Watch your backs, we might be next!

ORIGINAL: Ifferd

In the USA, the power to regulate hunting laws, seasons, and game species is the province of the states - not our Federal Gov. The feds couldn't outlaw hunting if they wanted - but individual states could.

Point well taken.
Waterfowl hunting is controlled by the feds as is access to millions of acres of public property. It doesn't even take an act of congress to limit or ban hunting on most federal property, merely a policy change by some faceless beurocrat in D.C.
Yes seasons, for the most part, are set by the states but if the state (Texas as an example <2%) doesn't have much public land, then that is pretty useless.
