I actually thought Snowy’s Alcatraz allusion was kind of clever…

Yup.
AND the people, pro and ammie alike, who play a clean game.
Unfortunately, there are fewer of 'em than a lot of people would like to think, but they ARE out there. Honest.
Sadly Serah I’m afraid we have some posters who haven’t made it to High School yet. We have to care for those mentally disabled and try to nurture them with kindness.
Gee… nastiness suits you Snowy…

Bali had a good question. If these horses had not been insured would this have happened? Probably not. They also would not have been at PV’s barn in the first place. Expensive horses normally = insurance. To protect said buyer.
Only one horse was at PV’s barn.

…Have these rules changed? Have these people continued to fraud insurance companies/kill horses for money?..
in short - yes, the rules have been changed (see rules that took effect 12/05) and address many of the ‘work-arounds’ that PV used to dance around the edges of the suspension
Good idea War Admiral, seems like the trolls have an agenda. I think we know where many of them come from. We all must show restraint when they pop up.
I signed and my mother signed. Will try to get others to sign.
Good on you, WA! I just discovered this thread and signed the petition.

Well, I’ve waded through 10 pages of this thread…not enough stamina with the other 101…
However, we have a non-profit called LegUpUSA formed one year ago…
We could help with this cause. We also own our a web server, we could provide a website gratis.
As someone pointed out along the first 10 pages…getting people to the website is the problem.
<BLOCKQUOTE class=“ip-ubbcode-quote”><div class=“ip-ubbcode-quote-title”>quote:</div><div class=“ip-ubbcode-quote-content”>Maybe we need to make up bracelets (like the Livestrong ones Lance Armstrong’s foundation created to raise money for fighting cancer) that riders could buy - and WEAR - to show opposition to the reinstatement. I am thinking that seeing a bunch of red “DON’T DO IT” bracelets on every exhibitor at this winter’s horseshows would be a h*ll of a statement…
I’ll order 100 bracelets today 
PT me if anyone wants to continue down this path. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
Haha, wade through a few more pages - bracelets have already been ordered and are currently for sale in a number of locations. You might wanna talk with Snowbird for more info.

What professional horse person is on their computer at 1:10 PM ET? Definately not Paul as he is in his barn working.
FYI- he does not use a computer, doesn’t even have email… before you go off the wall, yes AWF has a computer but Paul does not use it.
I’m sure the jews in Nazi Germany felt your same level of trepidation
Witch hunts went out in the 1600s. I suggest you and your petitioners seek an audience with the Dali Lama.
No word/reply from Ethel Walker. Maybe they are still on Christmas break?
What do you think the TV critics are going to write? “There is a show on TV today about horses, and by the way somebody else got in trouble 10 years ago. Also, Mike Tyson is not a nice guy.”
See, I can wrap my peabrain around the lack of morals and greedy thing. I simply cannot give a thumbs up to the person that sends the 25 yr. old mare off to the slaughterhouse cause she no longer makes sense. I do not understand people who dump the dog on the 101. I want to shoot the dog owner who gives away the 10 yr. old dog…cause they are moving. People who don’t pull over for the stray that is in the middle of the road… disgusting excuse for a human.
So then he diffinitely was not within the rules! Owned by, means that. If the show’s records have that ownership, well then enough said. 
Hey guys - I have an idea.
Instead of flaming away at each other - now that we have a couple of acknowledged USEF committee members on the thread - why don’t we ask each of them for their interpretation of GR 702 et seq?

You need to be a USEF member and be able to read the rules… </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
You do not need to be a member of the USEF to sign the petition if that is what you meant.

Are you yourself a Palm Beach county resident? If so, I would be happy to put you in touch with the reporter I mentioned earlier in the thread, as you obviously have an enduring interest in this issue.
Of course, if you are just the kind of person who likes to make anonymous, obnoxious, and vitriolic statements on a bulletin board, you will not be willing to present your views publically, under your real name.
Obscure, sniggering remarks are for schoolchildren.
well aren’t we just full of OURSELF!
