Re: RC: David Boggs Suspension

Nancy,
Count me in.  I've seen too much that I should have reported and didn't
because I was afraid that I could not protect my own horse from reprisals.
I'm aware that our own sport has problems too, but I think the cold-blooded
abuse of horse shows needs to be taken on.
