His name is Skydome. He has a reputation.
Fuck I just remembered, what about all the pollution and resources our bikes use to get made?Are you for real?...or shitposting? Can't tell....
I was unaware I had a reputation, I come here only occasionally. .His name is Skydome. He has a reputation.
Perhaps born into the industry. But I’ve had off the track horses that love to compete. They want to do something. They want to jump. They want to come in and get fed and treated well. The horses that are racing in group 1 races are probably better looked dyer than you or I. For example. When was the last time you got a massage? My eventers. Every 3 weeks. Shoes replaced every 6 weeks. Vet visits every month just to make sure they are at their peak. Premium feed twice a day. Good hay and lucerne available.The cricket and football players made a conscious decision to play. Poor Mr Ed does not. Born into the industry.
There's ya reputation!Fuck I just remembered, what about all the pollution and resources our bikes use to get made?
I knew I'd upset you lot here lmao.
This could catch on...Can't remember the last time a footballer was euthanized behind a tarp when they busted a leg?

Fine as long it's not done manufacturing new standards or ebikes.Fuck I just remembered, what about all the pollution and resources our bikes use to get made?

Even less likely.It won’t be banned. Our only hope is that people grow up and stop supporting it.
Yep and of course it will not apply to real estate.You heard about this bill yeah?
Controversial cash-ban bill under review after MPs flooded with community objections
A controversial bill to ban cash payments of $10,000 and impose two-year jail sentences for people using cash for purchases above that limit, passes the Lower House, but now faces a Senate inquiry.www.abc.net.au
I was one of the 3500 who wrote a submission opposing it.
Rest of Straya. Fuck it who cares.
Good luck with that.
Your rose coloured glasses are very special. No real injuries. Fuck right off.What about the trees they cut down to make the cricket bats? That tree could be supporting a family of birds.
Than there's the leather on the cricket balls.
And footballs use animal skin or waste plastics in creating it.
I also what animal crulty are we talking about here with horse racing?
Whips aren't some destructive force like you've been led to believe and the horses skin is relatively thick so they feel little discomfort from the whipping.
The only real injuries that can occur is inflammation and redness which easily treated and they also have excessive whipping rules during races for this reason.
The only issue I can see is that excessive whipping doesn't seem to carry much of a penalty.
Yep that’s basically the problem with the industry in a nutshell.you just prolong its suffering for no real reason other than to satisfy yourself.
I saw an 8 year olds pony slip off the side of the float unloading it at a pony club meet. The poor thing broke its leg. Injuries happen to horses regardless if they are racing or just in a paddock.I was unaware I upset people that much here.
I knew I'd upset people in this thread though but wasn't aware I upset people elsewhere lmao.
The fact remains though it's not some cruel sport like you people have been led to believe, yes injuries occur just like in any other sport and sometimes those injuries are quite sever and require the horse to be put down otherwise you just prolong its suffering for no real reason other than to satisfy yourself.
Sorry but that is not a statistically balanced argument.I saw an 8 year olds pony slip off the side of the float unloading it at a pony club meet. The poor thing broke its leg. Injuries happen to horses regardless if they are racing or just in a paddock.
I see what your saying.Sorry but that is not a statistically balanced argument.
It's the rate at which race horses are injured/killed that is alarming. If you took all the race horses & just let 'em walk around a paddock, the injury rate would be a lot lower. Sure, two of them would be clumsy & trip over a rock or whatever....
The poor pony that fell off the float just reinforces the anti-racing argument really....it broke its leg because we humans chose to fuck around with it. We load it in and out of a steel box because we want to take it to some event and make it do clever things in front of judges for our own pleasure.
That horse would prolly not have broken it's leg on that day if it wasn't forced to walk in/out of a trailer.
I do take your well-made point about how some horses are treated though.
I have seen first hand how well some people treat their horses (family friends)....and there is no expense spared re food / vet etc. Under the right care some horses are extremely well looked after and I'm sure for those people (and yourself) it's very difficult/distressing to see others using/abusing animals.
Also, the comparison to family horse ownership is pretty crap because... pets. The pony club horses are pets. Race horses are “investments”.Sorry but that is not a statistically balanced argument.
