   This irks me the wrong way because if you have a weapon licensed as a sporting   
   gun, and a truck runs a cow over in your village, you cannot put the dying cow   
   down humanely because you get charged with unlawful weapon posesion (ie. you   
   have a non-sporting gun now, and haven't got a non-sporting gun license).   
      
   And then they also charge you with animal cruelty on top of that.   
      
   Fuck Spain.
