It's better when would-be criminals have to wonder who is and who isn't carrying. It makes them think twice about commiting a crime. Quote
erik Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 i dont think so have rode those animals before...seems pretty weak to beat those animals to get what you want from them. and yes i consider using spurs or a whip beating them. i and horses ruin the wilderness. their shit intruduces all sorts of foreign species of grasses and weeds into the wilderness. i think that horse people would be smart enough to figure it out, but i guess not. and why do horse people feel they need to have the right away on a trail? and that i should not run around them. that is utter bullshit. the horse people make the larger impact and should have to respect every user as they expect to get respected. horses are for glue and dog food. and minx that joke is really old and pretty dumb.

sk Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 I have ridden on and off since I was six. I have never used spurs or a whip on an animal. If you can not handle the animal, you should not ride it. with out horses civilization would not have progressed. they are amazing and beautiful creatures with a copasity for work and strength that is inspiring. think what you like Quote
Dru Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 have any of you horse riders used a snaffle on your horse Quote
allthumbs Posted September 17, 2003 Author Posted September 17, 2003 I had eight horses at one time in my life. Other than time spent mucking out the barn, they were great. Come home after a long day, grab my fishin' pole, saddle up and head up the mountain to King Lake for some trout fishin'. Quote

erik Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 horese were introduced to this country by man. they are not natural upon the landscape. wild burros and horses are the number one natural cause for destruction to public lands. shoot them all and feed them to the homeless. Quote
allthumbs Posted September 17, 2003 Author Posted September 17, 2003 Horses have been shitting in the wilderness since the Spaniards (or whoever) introduced them to North America. Erik, that argument doesn't wash. Quote
minx Posted September 17, 2003 Posted September 17, 2003 why not turn a profit. shoot them and sell them to the europeans. Quote
allthumbs Posted September 17, 2003 Author Posted September 17, 2003 I'd rather ride a horse than drive a car. Far more fun. Been awhile since I've ridden though. Any of you sistas have a horse you'll invite me to ride? Quote

Sounds nice Minx. I'll be as perfect a gentleman as you'd like me to be. You weren't suggesting I'd inappropriately touch the filly were you? Quote
fern Posted September 18, 2003 Posted September 18, 2003 I have a horse, never been ridden. But I think even I am too big to ride her anyways since she's only 36" at the withers. Quote

Oh erik, The Appaloosa which is native to Idaho, Washington, and Oregon; it came across the the ice bridge many many years ago along with camels and such... camels have long been extinct do to the killing nature of the Clovis people. but horses did survive the epidemic known as man, but mammoths, camels, along with many other mammals native to the eastern contenates didn't.... so really it depends on what type of breed your talking about that determines weather or not horses are native or not... they definitely are to our part of the country...

minx Posted September 18, 2003 Posted September 18, 2003 i'm pretty sure that humans have destroyed as much horses have. i've never seen a horse pave anything Quote

allthumbs Posted September 18, 2003 Author Posted September 18, 2003 Erik was introduced to this country by his Mama. He is not natural upon the landscape. In fact Erik and his flock of beasts are the number one natural cause for destruction to public lands. Shoot him and his critters, and feed them to the homeless. Quote
