#1 When asked if his molestation included buggering male horses, the accused turned visibly red and said, "Listen copper, I am not gay, OK?"

#2 "A freezer? Oh, this is getting worse."

Well, where else would he go to beat the meat?

#4 "The charges allege that McAfee tied the mare to a fence with a strap in such a manner that it caused the horse to choke to death"

I can see his defense - the horse was into autoerotic-ashyxiation and accidently caused its own death ;-)

Couple of years ago we had a guy in Lakeside - a nearby horse/ranch community in San Diego - who also caused several mares damage/death doing similar "things"... WTF is up with these guys?

#6 McAfee could've claimed it was all a silly misunderstanding. Yeah, that's the ticket. He could, uh, he could swear that he carries certain anitbodies, yeah, and uh and and he was merely vaccinating the horses against viruses. So simplisme`.

#7 Er, actually, I'm primarily interested in the picture. My favorite professor in grad school used to have that postcard hanging up in his office. I might even have a copy in storage somewhere. Where'd you find the image?

The linked article has comments. My favorite was the one from the guy who said that the horses were asking for it, the way they went around almost nude, swishing their tales like that (yes, he was kidding).

#8 How can we discriminate against this guy on the basis of his sexual orientation? After all, sodomy is legal. Who cares what goes on in the privacy of his own barn? I'm proposing that we legalize cross-species marriage. After all, a man can have a loving, long term relationship with his livestock. Why shouldn't they have the same benefits as the rest of us? It's discriminatory, I tell ya'. [end sarcasm mode]

#9 Hey the guy sounds Scotish and what he supposed to do if there aren't any sheep around

#10 Angie,

I scanned it. I bought the postcard ten years or so ago. Here's a (much) bigger version...

#12 Was it that lame or obtuse? McAfee / virus... Sheesh - this is a tough house today!

#14 That phocking peeedeee keeps popping up. Bet he's a total prick - kinda like NMM. Speaking of NMM, wanna know the definition of onanism? It's posting a batch of comments in the last half hour or so before Rantburg rolls over to a new day - i.e. no one will ever read them except when going back to pick off a link you missed - as happened to me yesterday. You can't help but notice with the new Browse Mode features Fred put in place. Geez, man, that's self-absorbed incarnate. Kinda sad, y'know? ;->

It was a bit obtuse, but now that you pointed out the Mcafee, I think it is brilliant.

#19 PS .com I didn't realize you had imposed a deadline on posting--get your head outta DeLay's ass long enough to talk about this OK?

#20 "get your head outta DeLay's ass"
NMM - that's typical of you - lost in your own tiny little Pubs & Dems world.

If you paid any attention, you'd know that I seldom post anything about domestic issues except the occasional little half-assed thoughts that occur to me - kinda like all of your posts. So your reference to DeLay is truly stupid and revealing of your own limits.

I post at-length only on articles of which I actually have knowledge - first hand knowledge. I actually try to contribute - the large majority of the time. Can you say the same?

Currently I have no respect for you. None. You're a troll and a myopic demogogue simply parroting someone else's predigested dogma. Nothing original, therefore not worth listening to.

So, talk, if what you said is true,and not just another of your schoolground brain-farts. I've got all day and will check this article for awhile to see if you aren't just a troll.

#21 .com I respect your knowledge and to a point come here to learn an opposing point of view, you descend into Jack-O-Matic and words like that and provoke an equally childish response from me--I personally don't see the point of personal attacks if we're discussing an issue--but you make it personal for some reason, as does Raptor

#22 NMM - You imply here your posts are discussion. Obviously, I do not agree. Most of what you post is pointless trolling - simple disingenuous baiting. If you start paying attention, you'll note that I "descend" when you become an egregious asshole. When you attempt to contribute, I don't say squat to you. Between the two, it depends on the sum.

Take a look at what you've posted today. Go ahead, review it. Discussion? Contributing anything? Not a chance, just the usual jacking-off online.

What I said about your posts defining onanism is accurate. Almost NOBODY sees your posts, of late. I happen to see the last minute posts sometimes because that's about now - 10:45 AM here in Thailand and I may hit Rantburg to pass someone an email link to an article. Most of the European and American Rantburgers are fast asleep. So how would you characterize someone who comes along after the discussion is closed by the reality of time, yet they assiduously add some trite twit-wit to almost every article, knowing virtually no one will see it?

You're a troll. And, not to put too fine a point on it, you're not very good. Childish placard-weight stuff. I don't owe you respect or relief, and you can expect none from me as long as you can't bring your average post quality and value up - a lot.

Get a clue. It's obvious that honesty is wasted on you - and this is the last time I'll do so, other than to call a spade a spade if I feel you've reverted to form.

Here's a rock-solid guarantee from a man: I will give credit where due - always. If you contribute, I'll treat you with respect - no shit, son. If not, and you play the troll, I'll treat you with the contempt you deserve.
