A Ban On Bullridng?

Fri, 05 Jun 2008 17:16:00 GMT

This may seem like a small problem for the rodeo and bull riding sport but in reality it should be compared to the small piece of grass that makes it way up a tiny crack in the paving and then grows until the crack expands and soon you have a large problem. Please tell your friends in New York and especially in Putman county to let them know the bulls are not harmed and in fact enjoy the sport as much as the riders. That they live the life of luxury. Also please ask them what these animal rights people plan to do with the bulls? Remember "Animal's Right To Work-Freedom From Extinction!"
