Goddamned Wild Horses! (Now with pics!)

Get outta here with that attitude. That’s all we need here. Stupid republican government keeps threatening to round up and sell/kill the Salt River wild horses. They get blocked, but they keep trying.

Leave them the fuck alone. If the outdoors is too wild for you, then move to NYC.

Just shoot the evil stupid things. They don’t belong on this continent anyways. God got rid of them in North America for a reason. Why does man feel he has the right to defy Gods will by letting them roam around here again?

Horses are a non-native species in North America. Just like cattle or domestic breeds of sheep and pigs. Complaining about feral horses is not like complaining about deer. If it was a clowder of feral cats or some ranged cattle instead of horses, would you be giving the OP a hard time? He didn’t even say he wanted them hurt, just to move further away from his property.

Sorry you are saddled with this problem.

Humans are also a non-native species in NA. Are you advocating that they don’t deserve protection?

There’s a lot of room in the west for horses to be wild without being bothersome. Of course, I have no idea where the OP is. Wild horses roaming suburban St Louis is one thing, but if his place butts up against national forest land, then I have no more sympathy than I would have for someone that moves next to an airport and then complains about jet noise. (and we certainly get those idiots out here, too).

And horses have been here long enough to be considered natives. :slight_smile:

Correct me if I’m wrong, but didn’t horses evolve here in the Americas, and then migrate over the Bering land bridge to Asia and Eurasia? Then they went extinct here and were not seen again until the Spaniards brought them back during exploration. That’s what I seem to remember reading at one point, anyway.

Off to Wikipedia to refresh my memory.

So these aren’t just fucking horses, they’re horses fucking.

But soon you will have ponies! Can we all get one?

I’ve seen that happen!

Well, not so much “wild” as “placidly wandering free from their stables near Queeny Park”. And there was no horsecock being waved about. But it was weird to realize in the midst of swim practice that there were random horses watching us through the fence.

Just like the dogs let loose in the park, they didn’t pick up their poop, either. And, really, isn’t that the important criterion? I say the OP should get rid of horses and dogs. Or at least, be a good neighbor and let them in to use his toilet.

Trump has got your back.

No, no, no! No killing! The wyld stallyns have specifically asked us to be excellent to each other!

Get yourself a pet lion.

It’s a kick in the head to be sure. Maybe hoof it to the nearest sheriff station, ask them for help reining them in ?

Train your dogs not to bark at the horses. Bark ZAPP . . . bark ZAPP . . . bark ZAPP . . . is how training collars work for all but the dumbest dogs.

The collars can pay for themselves if you rent them to kinksters to use on each other when they come to watch the horses fuck.

Sometimes bark collars have unintended results.

A friend trained his dog with a bark collar. It would “beep” before it zapped the dog for barking. And later you could just turn the zap off and the dog learned to quit barking just from the “beep”, great result right?

Except that now the dog is deathly afraid of anything that beeps. Garbage truck backing up, “beep, beep, beep!” Microwave oven done, “beep, beep, beep!” Kitchen oven reaches pre-heat temp, “beep, beep, beep!”

The poor dog would just go ape shit with fear, the way some do with lightning… It would have been hilarious except that the dog was now psychologically ruined with PTSD.

Maybe this is your golden opportunity to set up that YouTube channel you’ve always wanted. Videos of the wild horses running free, baby foals in the Spring, wild stallions fighting for dominance. You can throw in the occasional fun bit of Ted and the gang. I can see it now.

More of a “Nag” than a “bitch”.

They must have got the memo. No sign of them today.

Exactly. Putting on a condom using hoofs would be difficult.

False equinvalency and hippocritical.

Correct-o-mundo!!
