Thanks god here we're not stupid, corrupt and backward -- like all those rubes in West Virginia. HA!
#1, bitter much?
Chris, you probably know this blog post is not exactly good writing. After reading it 3 times I'm still not sure who did what and who said what about whom. Who the fuck is Jenny? Who is the neighbor? Bah. I give up. I hope the P-I covers this.
Parentheses bad. Sticking videos in the middle Tarnatino-flashback style is bad. Filling in backstory in the process of trying to tell what happened? Bad.
If you're just experimenting today, or getting drunk in Fremont today, that's cool. Carry on.
Agreed w/Elenchos, whose comment saved me from a 3rd reading. Mud track.
I actually had to read it twice before it made sense, and then I watched the video. I didn't see much deformity in the first horse, but the long, extended horse-penis shots were a bit much. Couldn't we have had a quick peek and then a freeze-frame, if necessary? The long, loving horse-penis shots weren't necessary to make the point.
"A month ago, John and Jenny Edwards, contributers [sic] to Charles Mudede’s horse-sex anti-documentary “Zoo” and the “horse rescuers” in charge of a non profit called Hope for Horses, sent Charles a frantic e-mail."
I agree with all the other complaints on this post. Also, why would these folks contact Charles and (further) associate their group with "Zoo"? Ok, they get some publicity here, but probably not the kind they need...
So, I think what happened is that one charitable group was angry that another charitable group didn't want to cede care of the horses to the one charitable group.
Neither of whom had any "legal" right to the horses, and were simply attempting to do charitable deeds.
Fortunately, there is a system for resolving such disagreements. What does Judge Judy have to say about it?
(And, yeah, make the writing be less bad next time, plskthxbye.)
The reason Jenny Edwards & Hope for Horses is in trouble is because they were not in complicance with the State of Washington as a non-profit organization- and they sure don't tell you how they work: They "rescue" horses. The county pays them to take care of the horses. The minute Jenny has the horses she puts pictures of the worst ones on her website and collects donations. Then when the horses are legally released, she sells them and keeps the cash. Tripple dipping. Taxpayers just got wise and started asking questions. Check it out yourself.
Oh Please, Do you have any idea how much horses cost to take care of. Dog shelters get paid almost the same for taking in a 50 pound dog. Hope for horses got $10/day/horse till early April since then nothing. One horse out of 13 has been adopted. Who should pay to rehabilitate sick, starving horse, well now nobody does - All the rescues are full, the county is broke, the whiny citizens of Pierce County have their way. Next time a bunch of people complain about horses in terrible conditions the country will be forced to take them to the livestock auction (as the law allows) where they will be sold, trucked to Canada and sliced up for foreign dinner tables. Good job.
Oh Yes Here is a blog with the details of the story
