You could make a similarly compelling argument for saying that motorbikes shouldn't be allowed on the road
It's not like someone as stupid as a horse can drive something ten times faster and more metal like on the road around all these poor innocent law abiding drivers
whats with all these silly threads recently. oh well here's my 2p [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hrixzlYBXSk&feature=related]YouTube - Horse Cart Drifting[/ame]
Totally. Except they have brakes and steering. I guess if you fitted a horse with an emergency stop button* they'd be fine. Also I have to say I really didn't care about horses at all until I moved in to the middle of nowhere which is riddled with the things. Of course mostly my opinion has been formed by having tried it, and it turns out I hate riding horses. As far as I can tell a nice little motorbike does the job just as well, as long as you have a ramp in front of the jumps and don't have a fur fetish. * I'm thinking a bolt gun strapped to their head. Humane and cheap.
Agreed, but nobody needs to hit a ball with their foot, or a stick, or splash around repeatedly for hours in a large tub of water, or make pictures with a stick and some nose hairs, or build cars that bankrupt them and drive them around loudly and sideways... do I need to go on? I don't think animals and cars mix, but I can appreciate that sometimes they have to travel on the roads in order to get somewhere to ride so give them a break. Infact, the more I think about it the more parallels there are between horse riding and drifting. Everybody outside of it thinks you're a dick, it costs all your money, you always have to travel somewhere to get a decent session and if you get really good you'll end up with a sore arse!
Pile of bollocks. None of what you have listed directly abuse animals.. If the ball was alive, and hated being kicked, then maybe.
So just because I can't ask it if it likes being sat on by a fat fuck means that it loves it? I don't want to piss anyone else off so i'm gonna have to stop. EDIT: P.S. I don't know you so the fat fuck isn't aimed at you. But relatively, humans are heavy.. What are horse's half a ton? so we are what 70-80kg? And gear maybe 20kg? So carrying 20% of your body weight around, running, walking up massive hills on steel shoes whilst stood on slippy tarmac? Yeah I'd love that..
Glad you said that fat fuck bit isn't aimed at me cos us girls develop complexes lol. And it was a sarcastic comment hence the smiley, but u seem to have huge issues with horses and horse riders
I have huge issues with horses. I'm scared of them, so I definately think they shouldn't be allowed on the roads incase they eat me or something.
ok time to get out the big guns for this thread [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUl9_5kK9ts[/ame]
You could go on until you find an activity that inconveniences others like riding a horse does. Plus none of those involve letting half a ton of steel hooved idiot mix with lorries and cars. Or shitting on the road.
