[RC] [RC] [RC] FEI/AERC - Jim HollandWell, Jody if you look at it that way, then let?s repeal the laws on drunk driving, murder, rape, etc., because only a small number of the population ?participate? in those actions as well. Laws/rules, etc. are made to protect us (in this case our horses) from the exception, not the rule. If you don?t ?participate?, then why do you care?? Are you saying you think it?s OK to ?participate? in riding your horse into metabolic stress? Hmmmm?? So it?s OK with you if a ?few? people abuse their horses, because most do not? Strange logic?..Makes no sense to me?.JMHO Jim, Sun of Dimanche+, and Mahada Magic Richard T.

Most of what goes on HERE? (AERC) is not a problem of repeat offenders, but some that do override, and some that just have things go wrong.? Not to say that we don't have a few repeat offenders and I am certainly against them being allowed to continue...but they are only a couple.? The rest of us don't need to be policed. ?
