You have to wonder about the state of education when people don't realize that the domestication of farm animals (horses, chickens, pigs...) is what liberated humans from the prison of being little more than animals ourselves. Send these fools to Africa or other third world nations W/O their support systems and see how long they survive.

Doesn't mother Martha own fancy antique carriages by the dozens, which she uses to entertain her guests with rides?
You might be a redneck if ...
That's "a good thing"
I don't know, but I wouldn't put it past her.
Did they give the horse a breathalizer to make sure it wasn't drunk?

Since Officer Ann Marie Lucas of the NY SPCA has expressed the same sentiment many times, I'll bet it only a matter of time.
The whole idea of going to one of the most congested cities in the country to ride in a horse drawn carriage is stupid.
Carl Bernstein (Watergate fame) once had a bit too much to drink and stole one of the carriages from in front of the Plaza and raced it into Central Park. He may have overturned it too. Also stupid.
She's worried about horses and carriages but she's okay with her mother imprisoning and murdering chickens?
That's seriously messed up.
I read a story about the young Will Rogers, when he was working in Vaudville in NY in the 20's. He was a polo lover, and bought a herd of polo ponies over in New Jersey. To get them up to the field somewhere north of NY (long island?), he had to take them over on the ferry, then herd them up the streets of New York. Must have been a sight.
Rogers wasn't a drug store cowboy like the others in Hollywood. He'd actually worked on cattle drives across Texas and Oklahoma in the late 1800's.
Well, hmmmmmmmmmm...I don't think horses, or bicycles should be allowed on streets, does that make me dem:)

I have no problems with them doing what they do in Central Park, but they take them clear across town to harness, unharness, board, etc., and they are in traffic, with all the crazy cab drivers, they are fed in the streets smelling the fumes of the cars and trucks, and I agree their treatment is borderline, at best... so, it's JMHO, but they should be housed in Central Park and kept in the park, not forced to go across town twice a day. This is no life for a horse they way it's currently set up.
No, it makes you someone who understands horses.
That's where I stopped too. I even let out a heavy, exasperated sigh.
