Girl Dies Bull Riding. VERY RARE ACCIDENT

Many people die every day, how many die doing something they absolutely LOVE? Brooke Ann did. I'm sure her adrenaline was pumping just before she got on that bull. I'm sure there was a part of her that thought "this is the one I'm going to make 8 seconds on". She smelled the bull, felt his power underneath her and was loving every minute of it. Would it have been easier, more PC or less heartbreaking if she'd been killed in a car wreck on the way home? No.

Don’t jump on the krank for that one, it was me, I admit it...

In high schrewl, we used to ride bulls, junior bulls... they were lazy so we ‘got them excited’ cinch the nuts, cattle prods , etc.. I am guilty, flame me..

Krankor is a bunny hugger: but his beef is with me...

Bull riding today is a vast difference than what it was in the 80’s...

I am guilty as charged, my invite to Kranker still stands...

Lay off of him, his anger is justly aimed at me...

We drank and rode, and bagged the barrell racers in the hay barn... I confess

[It Matters]

Sorry about that Krankor. My mistake. I got it from post 85.

if you are calling a sick demented person you need to back off ...God said what he said in Genesis 1:26 and that settles it, so if I'm sick for believe what God said instead of your idea of what God said so be it but remember this God said everyman is a liar ie. meaning God cannot live so again take it up with God

[waterhill]

It was me... I was 16 and did not have a care... bulls be damned...

I have asked for forgivness from God, and I feel that he has delivered. Its not like I dipped kittens in diesel and lit them...

Although I did shoot a skunk at 100 yards with 7.62x54... vaporized him.

[Krankor]

Well, I’m partially to blame, as well. I thought the guy knew what he was talking about. Ridesthemiles seems to know what’s up.

[eyedigress]

That’s a bit close. I hope you weren’t at home.

[FreeperDoll]

nothing two ways about what God said he said Dominion that means just that or maybe some here have feelings for animals which has no soul then the souls of people?

[waterhill]

I wouldn’t say that...

[waterhill]

That was close, it was my front yard... lol

I live in the sticks... don’t worry,,, its cool, i have no neighbors...

[eyedigress]

It’s the smell that would get me. I live in a sub-division and shoot my GL-23 at will.

[waterhill]

You are still an unrepentant bunny hugger...

And we cinched young bulls to ride... however we could...
And we bagged the barrell racers, well, they bagged us...

This thread has been highjacked enough already...

Alpo got the bulls, and they will get more.... get over it

Malcolm Baldridge died riding a bull but he was an old guy.

[Amberdawn]

No, the other bulls stand around until he begins to rot, then they keep their distance. Seriously, let’s not anthropomorphize them.

[SatinDoll]

LOL!

I’m glad you wrote that, because I’ve known bulls that were not the least bit ornery. I suspect it is whether they are raised with human contact from the time they’re calved.

[from occupied ga]

blah blah ... Should we ban horse riding? ... blah blah

Did you even read what I wrote? If you read it did you understand it? (obviously not) Read post 70 for an exact statement of my position on these issues.

God did not say that by giving man dominion over animals it was ok to abuse them. That is a meaning you have added.

I suggest you better acquaint yourself with the Bible. God's eye is on the sparrow, and one cannot fall without his concern. Those who would brave a lion or bear to protect his flock is exalted. One who cares for wild birds and doesn't destroy their nest is promised long life.

A righteous man cares for the needs of his animal, but the kindest acts of the wicked are cruel” (Proverbs 12:10).

Not that it matters but here are a couple photos showing the flank rope on a bull. Note the location of the rope as to the testicles.

[allmendream]

I never said anything against rodeo, just bullfighting (ritual torment to death). I have on my refrigerator, a picture of me bucking a bull calf when I was 9 years old. Rodeo is just good fun. DUHHHHHHHHHHHH! Moron yourself there champ.

Clarke's Commentary on the Bible A righteous man regardeth the life of his beast - One principal characteristic of a holy man is mercy: cruelty is unknown to him; and his benevolence extends to the meanest of the brute creation. Pity rules the heart of a pious man; he can do nothing that is cruel. He considers what is best for the comfort, ease health, and life of the beast that serves him, and he knows that God himself careth for oxen: and one of the ten commandments provides a seventh part of time to be allotted for the rest of laboring beasts as well as for man. I once in my travels met with the Hebrew of this clause on the sign board of a public inn: יודע צדיק נפש בהמתו yodea tsaddik nephesh behemto. "A righteous man considereth the life of his beast;" which, being very appropriate, reminded me that I should feed my horse.
