They can’t eat or drink either...

Methinks some people are way over emotionalizing a little duct tape. I don’t know the story behind what she did so I’m not commenting specifically on that, but I doubt you would have approved of my way of dealing with a horse who thinks he is in charge.....lol

I doubt the woman had any idea of the can of worm she opened...

Have and have had horses. Nothing you could say would surprise me.

No doubt. I think we've all been around long enough to see the reaction people have to anything involving pets. They seem to think they are more valuable than human life in some instances. Many are downright rabid, you've seen it... calling for the death of people who abuse an animal.

I'm pretty indifferent when it comes to animals. I believe in treating them with respect, and then killing them for freezer meat when done humanely and where applicable. I'm pretty attached to my dog, but it's a dog. God help her poor soul should I ever be faced with a life or death vet charge that's more than I can afford. You have to know where to draw the lines, and mine is a few hundred bucks. That money is best spent on my kids if I'm forced to choose.

“...would have approved of my way of dealing with a horse who thinks he is in charge.....lol...”

I dated a gal back in college that had a show horse - a huge Arabian to her 110 lbs. One time it was acting up and not letting her get the saddle on. I can’t remember now if she kicked it or punched it - but it took her three times before it got the message and settled down.

I was also much more careful around her too! (The girl that is!)

I’m wondering if this duct-tape thing made any difference on the barking? I would guess not.

Being white trash means never having to say you’re sorry. She is refusing to take the picture down. My cousin reposted it. She’s a little bit (actually a lot) trashy too. My thought, oh that’s bad. Then I moved on.
