Using a lip chain to retrain for medical reasons or rehabilitate and/ or stop a very dangerous habit from forming is not abusive. Do you really want to know what happens to horses that become dangerous to people or themselves that cannot be rehabilitated? If they are lucky... a vet comes out and they get a sedative and "The Pink Cocktail" or an excellent marksman takes care of it. If they are unlucky... they go on to another trainer's "program". Or... They get a one-way trip to Mexico. I will let you Google You Tube " Mexico horse slaughter" for that... Tell me how wonderful that video is. I will await your response to those horrible videos. Pro Tip: don't watch while you are eating or feeling venerable.
I would put a link but they are beyond graphic and would probably get me banned
And while you are on You Tube... Google Big Lick Horses
There should not be a space after /.
Marksman is a sexist word - use a gender neutral alternative.
There should not be a space between " and Mexico.
The last two sentences should end with periods.
YouTube is all one word.
There are always alternatives to cruelty. If you changed up the language you would have fit right in a couple hundred years ago -
"Using chains ... is not abusive. Do you really want to know what happens to slaves who become dangerous to owners or themselves and cannot be rehabilitated? If they are lucky ... they get a sedative. If they are unlucky they get a one-way trip down the river to the Deep South."
Food for thought on Martin Luther King Day.
Thanks again for sharing the horse info/tips, boss mare. Very interesting (and sad) stuff.

Because of the up-tick in cases at work, a lot of offices have gone back to tele-working and being closed to the public. Like before, my office is up and running as usual. I am really shocked with 5 full time employees and having random people working in here temporarily as well as dealing with citizens and people from other offices that no one in my office has gotten Covid.
Wow what ozone expedition are you on? Did you break your arm for that reach?
Speaking of a trip south, did you google big lick horses? If not, Google Shelbyville and Big Lick Horses if you want to see torture, chains and the South. The TWEBA biggest show is in Shelbyville Tn.
And if you want to see what "another trainers program " looks like. Google Shirley Roth and Kissin The Girls. Oh... and Also Google " On the Cart with Compton and Shirley Roth" She is suspended from every equine organization there is. Oh, and BTW, she's in in the south too. So, let's have a lively discussion on the horse industry and The South. And Slavery. I will look forward to it. Because You. Will. Lose.
You are welcome... The horse world does have a very dark side.
