Is it not obvious that such protocols are insufficent? You cannot eliminate the risk to the animals you use for this bizarre substitute for entertainment. Animal abuse is against the …

The spectators/witnesses left traumatized? Children were sobbing. This was their first event? Something went terribly wrong and people were covering their eyes because of it was so bad they couldn’t …

Fuck rodeos. Fuck the fair. And fuck the CR rodeo program.

Would some consider this “Gentrification”?

Does CR still teach subjects like…Hmmm… Art? Music? Science?

Have you contacted Cal Poly Humboldt? They were also involved?

It feels premature for College of the Redwoods to issue a public statement that they “remain fully committed to our rodeo team and program” while they claim they are “not …

Too true, that sailed right over my head

Community living also requires helping your neighbors who can’t help themselves. “If the penalty for a crime is a fine, then that law only exists for the lower class.”

I think the last car race was in 1952. They were given a chance in 2017 when they tried motorcycle racing. They proved it is a nuisance and violates CEQA.

^ Captain Obvious here. If it occurs after midnight on Saturday, then it would be Sunday.

Great. Community living also means to be a positive addition to the community, and keeping your property clean and safe is very simple. Tweaked, hoarders and lazy landlords will be …

How is CR even trying to spin something positive out of this? Anyone involved with this torturous practice is just an animal abuser, not a carer. You care for the …

Ah, I was just saying this would happen and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’ll be on Myrtle avenue early Sunday morning, since 101 will be closed overnight. All traffic …

There it IS.

I can’t believe CR is condoning this. Animals dying as a result of rodeos is extremely rare. 2 in one day? What went wrong? Were the horses to young? Were …

“CR is not in a position to speculate about what caused the injuries. “Uhm, yes they absolutely are in that position. They have a responsibility to make sure the people …

Much more complicated that that. Under CA Evidence Code § 1220, those public statements are fully admissible as party-opponent admissions. By publicly floating the county burial guideline, the defense legally …

Why Sunday? Seems like Friday or Saturday night would be more productive. Lots of videos on YouTube of people refusing to play along with the game.

It IS TIME to use this link select “Local government or District Attorney circle” and demand investigation by AG for Systemic Negligence and Discriminatory Enforcement by Humboldt County Planning Director …

have you ever been behind the scenes of a rodeo? i am guessing not because you would now the cinches are not very tight. the horse and bulls natural kick …

Name one, Nathan.

Wow, this is disgusting. These poor horses. The rodeo event should now be banned.

There are zero coastal cities in Oregon with a larger population than Eureka’s, much less “dozens.”

You’re talking about Albert Etter , and I guess we’ve never had a Humboldt History column about him before. Let me see if I can find one from the Historian …

I fully condemn CR for their continued support of this behaviour.

PETA would say you’re cruel for owning horses, and all animal husbandry is the moral equivalent of slavery. Others would ban eating meat because of their personal morals. Or they …

What I’m trying to say here is that we don’t have data from the other 70% of rodeos, I’m willing to bet that equine fatalities occur at much higher rates …

Yes, my “personal morals” are against animal abuse, and I’m proud to say that. (I own horses and I understand exactly what these are going through so others can have …

As I posted earlier, outlaw and rodeo is a bad combination.
