Re: [RC] Horse Fatalities, Part Two - Heidi SmithYour reference to the Jenkins decision proves my point: people should have the guts to protest abuse when they see it in the here and now with specific factual testimony and not whine about it with hearsay generalities on ridecamp years later if they actually want to save horses. AMEN! (And I apologize in advance if "Amen" posts are too much like "Me too" posts....) Our rules HAVE the teeth to allow ride vets and other ride officials to pull people for horse abuse, when and where it happens. I've done it. I know a few others who have too. Although it pays to get your ducks in a row and align the other ride officials behind you when you do it so that you present a unified front, we DO have the verbiage in the rule book to make such actions stick.
