"Leaked back in July, the activists posted the personal details on a blog, telling followers to 'contact as many [owners] as you can in your area and ask them if they are involved in shooting animals'."

What was the plan after this? Just harass them?

Harassing the 1% of Brits who happen to own guns isn't going to end well, is it?

Great work on making gun owners in the US even more paranoid about the government regulation of firearms as a handy bonus side effect.

Oh, great now organised crime knows who's got the guns. Gun owners had better double up on security now.
