Re: [RC] lighten up! (horses touching noses) - Susan

Good response Kristi,

Driving is also fun but driving drunk is dangerous and irresponsible. Allowing 
your
horse to injure another horse just because you are tired is also dangerous and 
irresponsible.
Every sport has it's dangers and you should always be aware of what is going
on around you.

Sorry, Lynn, I don't get your post. I thought this was
a great topic and would maybe make a few people think.
But because I want to keep my horse safe, you decide
that I'm a whiner and don't have fun? That 'lapse of
reason' you defend could get someone killed. Anyway,
to me, life is ALL about fun and distance riding fits
that criteria! But part of having fun with my horse is
protecting him so that I can CONTINUE to have fun with
him. I've earned his trust and refuse to blow it by
allowing some other idiot's horse to charge up to him
for whatever reason. I don't care HOW brain dead/tired
someone is - if s/he can't pay attention to what's
going on with their horse, then that person is the
party pooper, not me. Don't try to put the blame on
those of us who are being responsible while we're
having our fun.

But come on everyone, some of you don?t have anything
to do other than whine about a lapse of reason that a
rider might have.  One more time:  This is a sport
that is SUPPOSED to be fun.
