eljay 1,719 Report post Posted November 2, 2018 All horse lovers spare a thought tonight for the needless death of animals in the past spooked by fireworks. And pray for the safety of animals over the next few days when there will be idiots around causing mayhem with these deadly objects.

Pegasus 9 523 Report post Posted November 2, 2018 Why the heck it is not banned defies logic. And fireworks only seem to appeal to idiots as well. Nothing enjoyable about months of idiots getting their jollies off and creating fear into a lot of poor animals and birds. It is not just one night anymore.

puha 2,177 Report post Posted November 2, 2018 Cant stand on a 3 step ladder at work as I may fall of and hurt myself or so the work safe twat says. But I can light fireworks with no regard to anyone or any animal regardless of the carnage that may occur .

Pegasus 9 523 Report post Posted November 2, 2018 I would give them more than the Vet bill. Agree about a total ban. Belinda 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aaron Bidlake 760 Report post Posted November 2, 2018 It is what it is, people move to the lifestyle blocks and just have no idea. They neighbours stopped as soon as they realised I was out there with a torch trying to catch the horses, don't think they'll be doing it again, think they learnt a few new words! She is ok, bit stiff and sore but nothing a bit of bute won't fix. Pegasus 9, Chestnut, Belinda and 1 other 3 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

puha 2,177 Report post Posted November 3, 2018 A couple of years ago we brought home every horse from the track and spelling blocks to our property just out of town thinking it was the safest place . As if got dark sky rockets from up and behind us starting falling over our property. Horses scattering everywhere in the dark . like Arron I was hill in no time F ing this and F ing that. They didn’t care they were so ignorant I was trying to stop their fun . I’m all for controlled fireworks now so people can still get their fix but this random letting of anywhere anytime needs to stop.

Pegasus 9 523 Report post Posted November 3, 2018 I make no apologies for being a party pooper but they need to be completely banned. What are they supposed to represent anyway? Apart from misery. Dangerous things in the hands of IDIOTS. GOM, Belinda, eljay and 2 others 4 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am with you Sandpiper, I am not in favour of banning much today, we are too regulated as it is. Do we want to ban dogs that terrorise kids on the way to school, Cats that roam. rather let’s deal with the small minority who are not intelligent enough to know how to do much responsibly. Better off sterilising some of these dumb bastards from breeding, but you can imagine the PC wankers up in arms saying you can’t do that, impinges on their civil rights.

Ohokaman 5,825 Report post Posted November 4, 2018 When you have idiots driving around firing these things into hedges setting them on fire like they did in West Melton something needs to happen. Restrict them to Guy Fawkes night so everyone can prepare, enjoy them and not have to worry about what might happen for days before or after. Some idiot is letting off crackers as I write this....the dog is not impressed. Pegasus 9 and Belinda 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have had a gutsfull of dog owners and their bloody animals barking and shitting all over public places, not to mention the arrogant bastards who let them run loose in parks when other folk are trying to enjoy the things they are doing without friggin dogs charging at them. lets ban dogs or dog owners? Equally irresponsible as dickheads who let off fireworks. The trouble is Ohokaman there is no end to banning fu-kwits in society as today they infiltrate everywhere.
