Anybody else feel Fran Jurga would ban the horses if she could. Keeps slipping in things like
“Central Park has long echoed with protests from horse advocates who would like to see the horses move on to safer territory, but since the recent election of Democratic Mayor Bill de Blasio, the carriage horses that stroll around Central Park have become a stop-him-now symbol for conservative foes who know an emotional fight over animals is a great way to involve the masses.”
“While most horsepeople would likely agree that the horses are in a dangerous job and might be safer off the streets”
“What began as a tempest in a Manhattan teacup has escalated into a national news story with many implications”
Never was a tempest in a teacup but a national movement… horse’s job is not inherently dangerous and it isn’t onl conservative foes trying to do DeBlasio down who are against the horse ban.
Glad for the press. Just pretty sure she’s not for the NYC horses.[/QUOTE]
