I love Carrie, and it saddens me that a group(Shark) shows the worst of the worst ever animal accidents and convinces her to pull out of the oldest rodeo in America. I think the western heritage is under attack. Rodeo and Country music? Thats it root. What is most sad to me is people go to the movies like "Jackass" to watch people get hurt and act like idiots. Watch "in the face of death" to see people dying. Kill thousand of bugs on the windshields of cars, but then draw a line in the sand and say they are on the right side of it, and say, Rodeo is cruel to animals. What most dont know is There are vet doctors at every PRCA event to ensure the animals safety, health, and medical needs if any arrise. Steers have protective wraps on the ears, Not needed, but done for the comfort of the steer. Special ropes have been designed for calf roping. These ropes are mandated in roping. They have stretch in them so it causes a softer pull on the animals. It is common for people to pay over 100k for a bucking bull. And if any activist thinks they are not taken care of they are CRAZY! In the wild, ALL heard animals fight to the DEATH, naturally.. Just for the right to breed and for food. I love Rodeo and to me Rodeo is THE life in Country Music. We should all support Carrie and encourage her to go to the Grand Daddy of them All rodeo, and all Rodeos. I am vowing to go to only her shows which will be at rodeos from now on. Let let her know she Rocks, and to stand firm for what COUNTRY music stands for. The love of the romance of the western life style!
