Kahlua was a sweet pony who gently carried children on his back and was always the first in his pasture to trot up to and greet visitors.
On Wednesday his owner was horrified to find the blind pony dead in his pasture in Shenango Township, Mercer County. Large pieces of skin were missing from both back legs, and a bone in one hind leg was broken.

Whoever did this cruel and inhumane act had an ATV. I hate those things!
A serial killer in the making.
They should be nailed for violating the property rights of the owner of the pony. I say 15 years in jail.
Unfortunately, if the perps are caught, they will get off with little punishment due to being victims of ______________________________(fill in the blank with the liberal cause du jour).
just like you hate guns, I guess. Better to place your ire in finding and prosecuting the criminals that used the ATV to preform such a heinous act. Find them and drag them behind an ATV maybe?? Or is that too cruel?
Why were you so spring loaded to hammer the lady? She all she did was say that the hated ATV’s. So what, a lot of people do. I suspect what they really dislike is the way ATV’s are often used to harass others, to abuse people’s property and now apparently to kill their pets.
Lord, please keep me from thinking what I am thinking right now. And if you do it, thank you. Amen.
Do you have a irrational hate of SUV's too!
They kill children you know!!! At least Fox News thinks so!!!
Poor creature. I’ve known horses like that — not blind but I have known gentle horses that like to trot up and greet people. I can’t imagine how anyone would harm such a gentle, trusting animal. May the perp or perps be kicked and trampled to death by wild horses! Of course, that won’t happen. Probably some teenager with a long history of violence. He will wind up in juvenile court, be given a few months of, I don’t know — self-esteem training. He will emerge from that ready and eager to become a serial killer.
IMO people that abuse animals are the lowest of lowest scum on this earth.
*waits for the “It’s just an animal” and “What about the millions of abortions” crowd to enter the thread*
Sounds a lot like the liberal meadia’s condemnation of SUVs.
How would the ownership of an ATV have anything to do with cruel and inhumane acts?
Hammered the sentiment of the post. Don’t like people intimating that inanimate objects requiring “intelligent” use by people incapable of same are guilty of any offense. Sorta /sarc.
You will not get that from ME. In every single real-life instance I have seen, people who abuse animals are just practicing for the real thing. A long time ago, a "Troubled child" mutilated one of my pets.
He did go on to be an abusive, criminal adult who we all support with our taxes.
I will never forgive myself for not using the deep dug well out back.
That’s awful. You should of made that kid’s life and parent’s life a living hell. I know I would of.
Heartless and cruel people commit a dispicable act...and you hate the ATV?
I totally agree. Those that abuse animals are lower than whale sh#t.
They were staying with us. I threw the three of them out on the street. They saw my expression when I looked at the "Troubled Child" and realized I meant it.
The girl who was beaten to death, and left in a dumpster the same day, was little more than a paragraph on page 3.
I decided then, the only thing I hated more than animal abusers are people who cry more about animal abuse than murder.
A certain sect of people do take it to extremes. I do think that murders should take priority but animal abuse should not be taken lightly.
