Cruelty/Abuse videos... so unbalanced!!

[PapaFrita]

All I was saying was not to put such faith and to believe so blindly a 10 minute youtube video as a true representation of a sport. ANY sport.
The same Youtuber posted a video with alot of skinny horses, apparently dead horses, horses lying down apparently dead and asks everyone to condemn horse abuse. He himself says that not all the photos are of abused horses some of them are just skinny, so it supports his argument, one had clearly been hit by a car, which is an accident and so on and so forth.

Think i am going to refrain from posting on this thread anymore, pleased to hear both sides of the story though as i was (and probably still am) very one sided.

Tia, have to admit i find dressage a bit boring after a while, i prefer to be on the horse galloping up a hill or jumping!! lol! Still don't really see the point in rodeo but I'll do some research and i guess its just tradition!

[/ QUOTE ] But now you have seen that it isn't all like what you have seen on those clips; so you've learned something more about rodeos - that's got to be a good thing. You now have a far higher standing with your argument, because you have now seen both sides; you still believe what you believe but in a far more enlightened fashion now. We all have our opinions and good opinions are always based on knowledge....you've gained that now.
