• Anybody supporting this guy has clearly never worked retail.

    Are people supporting him? Thankfully I only see like one comment here lol

    Were you born yesterday, or have you lived off the grid far from society? Knowing how crazy folks can be in this world, you know there's a small amount that supports him.

    u/itastesok Just because you're offended by an outright comment doesn't mean someone else has a problem.

    Damn what's your problem?

    Alright tough guy, simmer down lol. Obviously there’ll always be a small % of people that’ll support anything, I was just asking if this guy was referencing something more specific.

    Calm down, snowflake. Don't be offended when I choice to answer your question in a non-snobby way.

    You gotta tone it down a little, ragebait is super obvious when you come on strong. You gotta slow boil it for it to be effective, otherwise its so sharp that it cuts right away. Like snowflake should be saved for reply 5-6, because that things nuclear lol. Clearly an amateur, you still got soft hands brother. Got them soft liberal hands 👊😔

    You're a little bit of a projector, aren't you? Good talk.

    u/bobsnervous If it feels aggressive, it's probably working.

    u/Medical-Horror-2952 Where are all you offended people coming from? I'll bite, what did I lose again? Account created 8/1, hilarious how you are trying.

    Was this satire or something holy shit

    Dude, take the loss and fuck off

    Im actually relieved. I thought the guy took a shit. Human shit is nastier than horse shit.

  • Horses can easily kill a person with a kick and both patrons and employees have no expectation of dealing with livestock. Like, I'm saying there is no way you can victim blame here if someone comes up behind a horse or whatever and gets kicked. This is purely these people bringing in dangerous animals and putting everyone else at risk for views.

    Not to mention the horse could have become spooked and injured itself. Horses can die if you look at them funny.

    Whoever this guy is, he should be banned from owning animals.

    We just had a giraffe die at our zoo in Toronto, he got spooked going through a gate & injured his head, they weren't able to save him. Large animals can be very delicate.

    Especially in an environment rife with unfamiliar hazards. I doubt this guy thought about how his horse might react to a shopping cart.

    Yeah I have experience with horses and it is a fucking miracle no one was seriously injured or killed during this. Bright lights, lots of voices, radio, recordings, ads, tight isles, things on the floor. That horse has to be bombproofed to be chill enough to even walk into the store.

    I have had more than a few children run up to my sweet Seneca, who is very gentle and calm, and I’ve had to scream at their parents to grab them before she stomps them to death. Horses can, emphasis on can not are, be chill. I’ve never known a horse that wouldn’t freak out by a screaming child coming up and trying to grab them. People just don’t realize that the horseys is god’s machine designed to turn living things into pink paint with utmost efficiency.

    Fellow horse person here - I cringe every time I see horses on smooth surfaces like pavement or asphalt because I know how slippery it is for them. Waxed linoleum is a whole new level of "Fuck that shit" even if the horse wasn't shod, which it didn't sound like it was.

    And that's in addition to everything you said. 

    Not to mention carrying 2 riders (bad) and no helmets, which I realize is more common in Western riding but is still an unnecessary risk IMO.

    I've done some stupid, dangerous shit in my 30+ years of riding horses, but this is just idiocy. 

    Honestly I’m amazed the horse even went into the store. Mine is a prissy princess, love her to death but if she doesn’t vibe with the texture she is NOT steppin’. I’ve had her decide she doesn’t like wet concrete before.

    They're so hit or miss about what they'll do!!  I've met TB's that will walk through a full-blown hurricane & drafts that freak out about a leaf falling nearby.  Breed characteristics exist for a reason, but there are also a ton of exceptions to every "type".

    This horse might be bomb proof AF, but I got nervous vibes from it so I'm inclined to think it gets some rough treatment if it "misbehaves".

    I'm also basing that on the fact that there's just a lot of bad horsemanship in this video.  

    I’ve never seen someone “love and trust” their horse so much they don’t wear a helmet anymore. Only way to be sure you’re never going to fall off is know they’ll never do something unexpected, and that is NOT how living creatures behave.

    Horses are like big dogs but with the body language of a cat. If you don't respect a cat it'll bite the hell out of you. Horses will too. Their bites are GNARLY but a lot less brutal than their kicks. I've also met a very friendly horse once. He gave me permission to pet him and I liked him a lot. I was literally being COACHED on horse body language as I approached him though. His owner was a nice dude. Horses are a lot more expressive than most people think.

    Oh they’re lovely, beautiful creatures. Would have to be otherwise people wouldn’t dedicate their lives and finances to them.

    It's a good thing I don't believe in god, or horses.

    Cecil Gershwin Palmer?

  • What if that horse slipped and broke its leg on that tile? Fucking idiot and asshole owners doing selfish shit for internet yet again.

  • I’ve heard of People of Walmart but not Horses of Target

  • Please tell me it was the horse that pooped and not the man.

  • My dad’s friend once rode his horse to our elementary school and it was like the Simpsons where every kid was pressed up against the windows. I didn’t get to say hi unfortunately but it was still cool and funny what a disturbance he cause all over a horse

    Childhood memory unlocked of the time a local dog somehow got into my primary school yard. Absolute mayhem as all the kids tried to chase it and play with it. Poor dog ran as fast as it could back to wherever it came from.

    A horse.. good lord.

  • I've been hearing lately that in the US we have the "freedom to..." while most other developed countries have "freedom from..." and I think this is a great analogy that helps me understand the difference.

    This idiot has the freedom to do that. No one is going to stop him.

    The other customers wish they had the freedom from idiotic stunts like this.

  • A horse inside a retail store is the first. I don't know what compels people to do these stunts other than attention, but what a stupid thing to do. As punishment, they should make them mad riding the horse clean up the horse poop.

  • That sounds like more of a Walmart thing

  • I feel bad for the manager, the situation sounds like it real...

    ...night-mare!

  • Horse people are the worst

    They don't horse around

  • My grandfather's brother did that at a small town Kansas bar in the 1970s, but he was Manic.

  • That must be one embarrassed horse.

  • I'd be afraid that one of the children that always seem to be left unattended in the toy section at Target (when we had them here & Walmart) would run over to see the horsey & get kicked or knocked over.

  • Better mosey over to the aisle for incontinence diapers.

  • Stay Gold behavior

  • I’m in no way defending this man but i would 9 times out of 10 scoop up a large pile of horse dookie than have to pick up some dog turds.

  • Being grossed out seems like an appropriate reaction

  • The horse is my emotional support animal - it is OK!

  • I mean.... What's it supposed to do, poop on the ceiling?

  • I'm ok with riding horse in the supermarket but pooping on the floor is disgusting.

  • It's fine when a dog does it 

    It's fine when a dog shits on the floor?

    Are you a bot? Or are you confused about the differences between a dog and a horse?

    Tons of people bring their dogs everywhere and they shit everywhere, but do it with a horse and now it's some kinda bad thing? Horse shit doesn't even smell as bad as dog shit, there's just more of it

    Nah, fuck dog owners that do that. No one is going to defend them.

    It's tough to tell a sarcastic joke around here. Of course it isn't ok but it happens.

    jokes are supposed to be funny my dude

    What backwards shithole do you live in that dog shit on the floor of stores is normalized?
