Re: [RC] horse fatalities, 2002 - m l

I haven't read all my e-mails yet, but I'm alittle
confused on everyones comments.  Isn't it the riders
responsibility to find out why their horse died.  I
have been at a ride where two horses died. The horses
were left at the ride and the riders/owners left.  I
wouldn't want a speculation as to why my horse died.
An autopsy would be the way to find out.  That is also
the rider/owners responsibility.  It may not give me
the answer, but it is better than speculation.

believe that 7 horses died in 2002...and it's just
because "shit
happens".  Nobody's fault, no extenuating
circumstances, none could have
been prevented...after all they were just horses. 
You will never
convince me of that. <sigh> As my Granddaddy used to
say, "I wasn't born
in a Turnip Patch".

No, Jim, it is never a waste of time.  But it is
only reality to understand
that you won't always find the cause, no matter
how hard you look.  This
isn't about paranoia--this is about good people
who simply didn't find
anywhere to point a finger.
