Another sign that we are losing all that is precious
You know the bad guys are winning when you cannot ride a horse in a snowstorm after a couple of pints without being arrested on some trumped up "safety" issue. I like to think that would be possible in Sarah Palin's America.

Sounds like he was trying out for a Darwin Award.

I had a memorable few minutes in Cody's traffic a few years back. I was second in line approaching the town traffic light, when it turned red just before we arrived at the intersedction. All four doors of the car in front of me promptly popped open, four guys got out and started fighting each other. There didn't seem to be teams. They fought for a minute or two, then calmly jumped back into their car and drove on through a green light. I was so stunned the car behind me had to honk to get my attention.

I am guessing that the person who called it in was more worried about the horse than the rider.
On the basis of the thinking behind that "infraction," virtually every 19th Century and early 20th Century cowboy would have been locked up. Also, nearly all hunt club members -- the ones chasing a fox with hounds (now outlawed in the UK because of concerns about the foxes) -- would be subject to arrest.
Cody is an interesting town with the Buffalo Bill Historical Center and the Sacajawea statue, but it was probably was more interesting 100 years ago.

I wouldn't want a horse's ass smashing through my windshield, that's for sure.
