Yet another vile human!:(

[Queenbee]

I know what I'd like to do to him evil little *****,

Is he human?? After all.. what a very strange thing to want to feed a horse.

I would imagine he is from one of the feral underclasses.

By no means am I sticking up for the guy - but it worries me that one of the clauses is for riding the horse without shoes on a gravel road. I can only surmise that the horse was obviously in pain whilst doing this (but I wish the article would make that clear). Otherwise, I'll have everybody trying to sue me too, for riding my own horses without shoes on gravel roads (as well as a host of other surfaces).

I know what part of his anatomy I'd like to force a few chilli peppers in, the evil pig!

 

[tallyho!]

Nothing surprises me when it comes to cruelty anymore - humans have an evil side. No matter to horse nor human it seems.

As they say, the abscence of light is darkness, I often wonder when I read/hear such awful stories, how they ever got to there in the first place!!!!

Does that mean I'm going to have to rush out and have shoes put on my three mules and 8 mini donks,none of whom have ever had shoes in their life!!

Seriously though you never hear in these articles exactly WHY people do these things,what on earth was going on in their thick empty sculls?!!!

 

[Quadro]

I just dont understand why you would ever do that???

 

[Umbongo]

I also don't understand how you can force feed a horse peppers?

Surely if the horse doesn't want something I'd be damned if I could force them to eat it. Unless he starved the poor mare and only offered her peppers to eat??? I can only assume the mare had bad feet and was in pain from riding along a gravel road?...

WHY do people do such strange things?

 

[Sanolly]

I was going to mention the lack of shoes as well, and I've been known to whip my horse with a leather strap as well (using reins as a wip-*** rope if I don't have a stick!)

 

[Sanolly]

OK can someone tell me how the word w-o-p is offensive? I am truly baffled!

I think that word is an old racist term used to describe people of Italian descent.

 

[Fairynuff]

the use of the word '***, jock, paddy, taff, niger et all is offensive if used to describe the so called thief, murderer etc. Just because someone is an Italian, Scot, Irish man or whatever, doesn't really come into the picture and certainly doesnt mean that they are automatically criminals or shady customers. I am married to a *** and a more honest person, I will never find.
I have probably explained myself badly due to living in *** land for more than 20 years.I apologise.

 

[spotty_pony]

What a strange thing to do! The poor horse, I'm glad she has been taken off him. IMO a one year sentence isn't enough for the extent of the cruelty suffered by the horse though!

Thanks for that, I had no idea! Sorry if I've offended anyone.

Ok so the man is obviously an a*se! But how on earth do you force feed a horse? getting wormer paste down em in tough enough!

 

[babymare]

Lol lexi with you regarding wormer lol I am often seen swinging from big lad as he just stretches head up a bit further he he he he he then the dribbling down my neck Oh dont you just love em bu on serious note I can only ask why would you feed that to a horse - she did sound in bad way with collapsed lung poor thing

 

[Fairynuff]

tbh, I think its a case of animal rights gone wrong. There is no way on this planet that I would be able to force feed even lettuce to my horses and to be found guilty of trotting them on a gravel path while unshod...well Ef me. As for the leather belt....????

 

[SusieT]

animal rights go wrong? The mare has a collapsed lung currently, that's not normal.
One would assume he was thrashing the horse and she was hobbling down the road, and whils TI have no idea how you force feed a horse, it stands that he was convicted of it. That's not animal rights gone wrong, that's abuse.
