Oklahoma Prison Rodeo: Perpetuating Violence, Part 2

[DottyUnicorn]

To all you morons who don't think this is abuse, Man Up and get some balls as you clearly don't have any!!!!

[babyminnow]

Whoever was sticking up for Coke, they're no charity-they only get involved with helping people because they know they can make more money from appearing kind and caring to consumers. You'd have to be a bit dumb to really believe they help people because they care-they're in it for the money. As for animals, they obviously can't be bothered to even pretend they care for them.

[emily2prather]

Thats some pretty good ropers! Thumbsup to the ropers and riders of rodeo! MY SPORT LOVE IT!

[SHARKonlineorg]

@emily2prather Cheering for convicted felons that are abusing animals for fun. Wow, mommy must be so proud of you.

[emily2prather]

@SHARKonlineorg She is! Ima 5 time world champ! WITH RODEO! And those people that just roped are not felons retard! They are professional ropers, with the IPRA or PRCA! WOW! Your smart! NOTTT!

[SHARKonlineorg]

@emily2prather What part of 'prison rodeo' and 'inmates' don't you understand? All the contestants in this video are convicted felons: murderers, rapists, etc.

Talk about not being smart. Instead of harassing animals, you should get some real world learning.

[emily2prather]

@SHARKonlineorg Really??? I am the stupid one in this situaiton??? This is an IPRA Pointed rodeo, Iwould know i have been there since i have been alive... Have you been??? Didnt think so... WOW Please stop being a moron who doesnt know what they are talking about. Its irritating... And Im not harassing animals, Ilove animals... I protect my animals at all cost i would take a bullet for them. They are like my children... my babys... And yes i love rodeo amazing sport(:

[SHARKonlineorg]

@emily2prather This has been a PRCA rodeo since the 40s. And yes, we've been there. Our cameras don't have feet, so they can't travel by themselves. Revert back to the second sentence in your latest post. The best answer is yes.

[ImDrummerZ]

nothing western about this... these guys should all take a horse out into the desert and pitch a tent and they'll learn what being western is all about real fast.

[acpanna]

This is DISGUSTING! How can people possibly have fun watching those shows? It is not only abuse, it is public encouragement to treat animals like they're worth nothing. I can't even express the feelings I have watching this. This has nothing to do with tradition and the way cowboys used to live. These horses will never be able to trust a person, which is definitely not what the real cowboys would want to achieve. And these people don't need to do this in order to survive - that's just bullshit!

[Amure1]

You people are disgusting! I hope you come back as a Cow!

[howlapeenyo]

ur all a bunch of tree huggin uptight sity slicker pantywaists...... you really should just stfu

[SHARKonlineorg]

@howlapeenyo Go cry somewhere else.

[englishrider1234]

@howlapeenyo how bout you take your own advice. you have no heart.

[xXMarLeneeXx]

-.- these people are so disturbed! What's funny about it? To attract animals, watching in panic as possible and break something? 7:33 .. even young calves? Are they crazy? why do not they let the animals in their herds on farms or live where they're fine? Bullfighting is even worse than that I would be sure to ban both.

:( these poor animals

[LevelHazel27]

lmao I love Oklahoma! This actually might be good for the prisoners to focus on something else and realize they actually might be good at something. Horses are 1000 pound animals, not a lot of things actually hurt them even if it looks painful to us. Most rodeos also have vets on standby who always check the horses out after a rodeo.

[brxide]

Eh, I really hate to agree with you. But there are some rodeo places that are just down right nasty. Letting criminals do the things they do with these animals, and also some of the videos of hicks trying to put on rodeos is disgusting. But not nearly all rodeos are like that. I used to rodeo and we always had a vet on hand, and we brace our broncos to help prevent broken legs. So you're right, a lot of this stuff needs to be stopped. But there's plenty of rodeos that don't harm the animals.

[CanaKahuna]

Coca Cola spends millions and millions of dollars on research, education, relief work and education of which include scholarships in places such as China, Pakistan, Egypt. Sad to see an organization such as Shark is dissing someone for sponsorship, looking for people to basically boycott their product.Their world-wide work where ever a disaster takes place, they are there. Helping with suitable means of living, discovering clean drinking water, sanitation, etc. Nice negativity though. Sad.

[SHARKonlineorg]

@CanaKahuna And then there's all the millions they're wasting on sponsoring animal abuse in American rodeos. Sad.

[riesbergen]

As cruel and mediaeval as the Spain fights. America our example?

[CanaKahuna]

Find it amazing of how idiots like these post stuff like this about rodeos and yet in Mexico and Spain bullfighting is alive and well but yet not a peep. Nice.

[SHARKonlineorg]

@CanaKahuna It's amazing how your narrow vision is blinded by your broad, uninformed criticism. We have bullfighting video in our playlist. We have been instrumental in getting soft drink vendor sponsorship out of bullrings.

Apart from that, 'stuff like this about rodeo' is harming American animals. But yet not a peep. Apparently it's all right with you? Nice.

[CanaKahuna]

@SHARKonlineorg The Coca-Cola Africa Foundation has pledged $2.5 million over a three-year period to further develop community HIV/AIDS programs in Egypt, Ethiopia, Kenya, South Africa and Tanzania.

[SHARKonlineorg]

@CanaKahuna Imagine all the more money they could put into humanitarian efforts if they weren't wasting it on animal abuse in American rodeos.

[howlapeenyo]

i just wish all you uptight city slicker bitches would shut the hell up.... you dont know what the fuck youre talkin about.... damn tree huggers

[SHARKonlineorg]

@howlapeenyo Seems like you've got your panties in a wad. Go cry somewhere else.

[howlapeenyo]

@SHARKonlineorg i just wish all you uptight city slicker bitches would shut the hell up.... you dont know what the fuck youre talkin about.... damn tree huggers

[TONATYOU]

They must fucking die !!

[BRIERFOX]

Prison rodeo.....perpetuating violence and cruelty. I like turtles.

[TheProudmomof4]

More prisoners allowed to commit ANOTHER crime, without being charged for it..animal cruelty to them, is not a crime and are encouraged to do this "soo called fun competition/entertainment sport" UGH!..so this is where the tax payers monies goes to...*shakes head* Again, the animals have NO choice in this, but the prisoners do? bleh...

[guadalupe160957]

those guys are crazy...

[datsuk100]

hahaahha the big blackk guy

[mandy101ful]

suck shit for those ass holes that got squished under those horses i hope it fucken hurt

[askalice50]

As human beings these people have failed. There is a reason they're in prison. But the people in the stands laughing and applauding are as guilty of smearing the human race as well. This culture of violence in OK is disgusting.

[bukstud4u]

The least sane clip in this video is the "tub ride" (Don't ask!), which is cruel to bathtubs as well as horses.

[DarkAngelAzreil]

These people do not even know how to handel a horse...I have noticed this in these video's.

[INDImind]

I can see that there are few who are intelligent and realize the brutality. Hats off for those who at least try n see the other side! all those who realize will be saved. others will perish! Yes as animal lovers, breeders, farmers, etc.. we should take care of them not harm them for our enjoyment. If we learn to treat them correctly and respect them for feeding us, we will be rewarded by nature in the same way! we are humans for gods sake! we have a brain to think more n strength to act faster!

[HeavensTigress57]

When watching these videos I noticed that none of these have anything to do with PBR or the big rodeos these are all high school and prison rodeos. Maybe not all rodoes abuse animals. I in no way support animal because several of my animals horses included are resuces and I would do anything to keep my animals from getting hurt. Look into the bigger rodeos and see if you find any animal abuse. Your videos have opened my eyes and I will not be watching rodeos anymore.

[SHARKonlineorg]

HeavensTigress57: Thanks for your post and concern for the animals. We do not have PBR footage. However we do have PRCA NFR vids, as well as CFD (the 'Daddy of em all), Salinas, Pendleton, Tucson; also the Natl. Steer Roping Finals from the last several years including last month's. So please check our more of our vids and you'll find them.

[HeavensTigress57]

Thank you I will check these videos out.

[INDImind]

@HeavensTigress57 : Hats off to you!! yes if you are utilizing animals for a decent income, you should take care of them well n love them as your own children. When u do that someday it will all come back to u! u will be blessed! cheers to u and hopefully many others who will stop going to rodeos!!

[Borat911]

I expected nothing less from these rednecks

[siffis1]

fuck all cowboys

[bigrok221]

rodeo = part of life, get over it! go get a real job

[SHARKonlineorg]

bigrok221: You abuse animals for a living. You're the one who needs to get a real job. Far from any animals.

[INDImind]

@SHARKonlineorg Yet again a very valid reply SHARK!! People who support this kind of acts n have the obesity to call it a "Sport" either have no brains or be retarded or both! They have some mental disorientation to this a "Job" They will all realize their pathetic only on death bed. I wish them good time in hell! Keep up the good work SHARK! you will be honored by all the good forces of life n nature for your genuine efforts! NEVER GIVE UP!! "WINNERS NEVER QUIT, QUITTERS NEVER WIN!"

[djwolf337]

@INDImind--You're quite offensive. I barrel race, and am in no way abusive to any of my horses. Never have been, either. And of all the rodeos I've competed in, I have never seen any other stock at any rodeo being abused.

[hukeeaboo]

stupid redneckx

[shadows360]

You ppl are sick !!

[bigboihorton]

u american wankers!

[TheMusicman303]

piss off you yankie pussy people,

[SHARKonlineorg]

TheMusicman303: Sorry little cowboy wannabe.

[equestrianracer604]

hahahahaha... nice shark!!!

[youstbi]

this why i prefer live up north

[evydragon]

This is called: ALL FOR FUN!!!

[bullitzthekid]

Quite literally these people have nothing to do with their time. I feel sorry for cowboys! They should of learned how to read or do something productive with their lives.

[anonymousgorillaz0]

I will respect other people and there opinions, but i have to admit that they take SOME of it to far. Bull riding and branco are ok with me, to a certant point.

But some of this stuff is bit overkill to ME.

Just my opinion and I respect your's

[oneblackhorse]

The people who allow this are simply a bunch of dumb asses. These rodeo contestants are inmates. Why the hell are they out playing cowboy, throwing animals around? Sure seems counter-productive to me. This will sure help them to be contributing members of society. Put the idiots behind bars!

[Avoice4theUnheard]

no wonder why these guys are in prison thats where all you rodeo cowardboys should be

[96ekcivic]

mugging is about as fair as a rodeo gets pinning animal vs animal

[shtfuk666]

haha!he said "per say"

[jolanda12345]

and the audiance is laughing ?

what's wrong with all those people ?

will they also have fun when people are misbused that way ?

[ShawnAndDusty]

who ever invented SHARK is very smart

[mayrasantanna]

Mee q massa

[k1010100081925]

how can those people cheer and laugh and enjoy that

[yesidobutnotwithyou]

Cos they are inbred uneducated redneks! They would probably treat a black person the same way!!!

[kelliefan1017]

Most of those people are regular people that dont rodeo.

[merridyn]

I don't know rodeo rules, but when you calf rope, isn't there supposed to be some sort of penalty (i.e. time penalty or punishment from the organization) if your horse drags the calf? It looks like every calf got dragged here.

[SHARKonlineorg]

merridyn: Rodeo humane rules are nothing but a ploy to make people think the animals are treated well. The rules are a lie.

[horsecrazypeep101]

There's supposed to be, but rarely do they do that.

[tulatulakaroo]

I notice none of you rodeo animal abusing idiots are responding to my question!!!!!!

[Y2YAY]

fuck all you rednecks!!!!!!!

[tulatulakaroo]

Come on then all you rodeo morons What the hell as the "Tub Ride" got to do with your "Rodeo is a way of life and Tradition". This is just out and out damn right cruelty to horses for your sick pleasure,, your all disgusting lowlifes

[DrummergirlKJ]

I'm not a redneck persay, but i have absolutly NO idea what the Tub Ride is and Have NEVER seen it prior to this.
