Have you ever gone fishing?
Let me guess, your going to say no.

IMO there is very little point in this "type" of debate, the OP seeked permission to conduct a perfectly legal pastime, and was met with a tirade of reasons why he/she was wrong for doing so.....
As i have never met you personally i cannot pass judgement as to whether you are a whale or not ;)
Back to the OP's question, the best way to gain the type of permission you are after is to knock on farmers/landowners doors and simply ask, some will say no, some will say yes, make sure you have all your certificates with you, and insurance from the likes of BASC etc and any written refferances from other landowners doesnt go amiss.
But the OP was not starting a debate. The OP asked a legitimate question. He did not attempt to justify shooting, nor criticise those who oppose it.
If the OP was asking if there was anywhere offroad he could race a car - would we say that this was an invitation to critisise his choice of legitimate sport? Would he be subjected to a whole raft of insults and criticism because some disagree with noisy motor cars driven at speed? Would anyone asking when the next SNP political meeting in Caithness be met with this level of antagonism? I think not.
I'll tell you what - lets all go over to the classified sections and start slating anyone who might be selling something we don't like.
I personally think that anyone who buys clothes with 'BENCH' written across the arse must be a slapper. So I'm off to find some poor mare flogging a pair on here so I can give her the benefit of my boundless wisdom....
Just wait a wee minute here Mr Ego. Are you implying I waged an all out campaign against the biglad? As I previously pointed out, all, bar one, of my posts were to others that joined in, and I responded to points they made, just like this one. I never once asked for him to justify anything, but he did in fact criticise those who oppose it, which is up to him.
If you look through the classified section, you actually will find posts, slating things some don't like. It happens all the time on here.
So don't start jumping on me if you don't like what was said on this thread, and quoting me as if I had some vendetta against the guy.
I am entitled to my opinion, as you are yours, but don't start singling people out for your attacks.
what happens when the rabbit population gets to big where would the lettuce and carrot crusher get their food from .stop shooting and we get rid of the narrow minded vegs. then we can shoot the rabbits after they have gone
Oh, a wee squeak fae the back.
There is a big difference between animal control and shooting for fun.
What is a narrow minded veg, and a lettuce and carrot crusher? Is this another attempt at humour? Is this as far as your vocabulary goes?
Small minds are easily amused, as they say.
how many of these vegs drink wine cleared with fish scales and eat sweets that have geltine from animals or leather shoes and sit on leather suites and the word retard means some one that slow and under at achieved which i think is un fair to a disable person if you can not win a agrument do not slate people that is less fortunate than you grow a pair and make you case with out insult not every one has the same views as you

I AM EACH TO THEIR OWN EVERY BODY HAS DIFFERENT OPINIONS IN LIFE ,BUT SOME PEOPLE DO NOT LIKE THEIR OPINIONS REJECTED AND GET DEFENSIVE AND USE OTHERS DOWN FALLS TO GAIN AND SCORE POINTS
