Title: "The unspeakable" are still in pursuit Post by: Bobbie Ireland on 07-Oct-10, 04:29:52 AM Oscar Wilde described foxhunting as "The unspeakable in pursuit of the uneatable". The same could describe the medieval practice of bear-baiting (or "baying") as it is carried out - not in the forests of Eastern Europe - but in South Carolina. We don't have to go far to find cruelty.
