Can no longer just be a reader…
[QUOTE=barrelchick00;3866918]
As far as I know it doesn’t cost that for quarter horse papers. However, Arabians are very expensive. I love my horse very much and I wouldn’t give her back she means the world to me. However, I must state that Britney isn’t a horrible person I do think she does try to give her horses a good home.
And Britney I know your reading this I wish you hadn’t made all these people so angry I do think you are a nice person in general. I don’t know why you had to treat them so horrible if it is indeed true. However, I am glad I got Annie and you know she is truly happy and very healthy. I will continue my contract as stated and I hope that you can work things out with these other people so they will no longer need to have a thread bashing your business or your horses.
Yes people she does read these threads…[/QUOTE]
Greetings all,
I have followed this thread since its’ early days, but this post is the preverbial, “straw that broke the camel’s back”… I must break my silence.
Barrel Chick, let me guess…you are a very nice person who wouldn’t intentionally have a confrontation with anyone. You go out of your way to get along with everyone and are in the twenty-something age bracket. You are also very concerned about the feelings of others. Please understand I’m not picking on you, only using your situation to make a point. B uses the age old angle of “loving and caring” as a tool of her deception. She may have wanted to “give her horses a good home” in the beginning, but now they are dollar signs. It shouldn’t take Sherlock Holmes to figure out that those of you who have “donated” horses to her “rescue”, have donated to her college fund.
What B is doing fall’s into that gray area of theft. Gray, only because it is very difficult to prosecute. The key word in any criminal prosecution is “culpability” (intent). Culpability key words are: knowingly, recklessly, negligently, etc. In my mind it is clearly Theft by deception. BC, you have said in a previous post that Annie was not what you thought she would be. What that tells me is B portrayed her to be what you wanted her to be, but later you find out she’s not. If I paint a brick gold and portray it to be gold and sell it at gold prices, that is theft. You are not alone as I have read post after post with the same theme. Bogus registration papers, papers at additional cost, horses alleged to be sound only to find out later they aren’t, and the list goes on. Barrel Chick, she has convinced you that she is a “good person” just as one can say a rattlesnake is pretty. The rattlesnake is pretty until it bites you. B plays the “shell game” with her contracts and threat of “her attorney”…She reminds me of the traveling salesman who sold the “cures everything” tonic.
I’m running out of time this morning, so I shall end with this thought. It has been said on this forum previous that those “duped” by B should join forces. I would urge you folks to truely consider this as an option. I understand the difficulty of this since you are spread out across the country (which obviously is to her benefit). What she is doing is wrong, and she know’s it…I would also be very interested to know what her income tax records would show.:eek:
For now…HIGH HO SILVER, AWAY!!!:winkgrin:
