A Dead Horse...Seriously

What an amazing city we have here. You can find anything if you wait long enough....even a dead horse:
  • Several Chicago alderman are calling for changes to city ordinances after a horse was found dead in Englewood.

    Chicago police and Animal Care and Control found two horses in a yard near 61st and Carpenter, after receiving multiple calls requesting well-being checks on the animals.

    One of the horses was dead. No word yet on what caused the horse’s death.
Fortunately, we have inside information from a number people on scene. Using their amazing powers of deduction, the detectives have narrowed down the cause of death to two possibilities:
  • heroin overdose 
  • gunfire
Because no one dies of natural causes in Englewood. Even horses.

It's the horse that Prieb was supposed to ride out of town on. Guess that means he's staying.

The necropsy revealed it was suicide with an underlying cause of environmental relocation shock.

Damn!
Mistuh Ed is dead?

Surprising that the locals didn't
shove it down the backyard catch basin.

June... July... August...

"Sump'n STANKIN' up in heah!
Call da Poleece an' make 'em
do sump'n 'bout it."

Hell... Dead human beings have been known to moulder away
in community catch basins for weeks and months and the usual
"we don't know nuttin'/why ya'll axin' US?" is par for the usual.

But how long will “The Brothers Johnson” be able to cash the dead horses SSI checks for?!

A necropsy will show that the gun shot was self inflicted after Burke failed to get it a job at the Burger King over at 51st & Pulaski.

O.T. - There's a crisis in Canada that's not being covered by our MSM. Lefty progressives have blockaded the Rail system across Canada for the last TWELVE days. Propane, Gasoline, and Food supplies are tightening, along with other effects. Prime Minister Soy-Boy-Black-Face Trudeau has been unwilling to clear the choke points with Law Enforcement. My point is, this tactic will probably come here after testing there. Massive disruption of the economy while scaring the public into demanding use of force, or the activation of National Guard units, is a revolutionaries wet dream. The optics could be awful as we get closer to the election, with a view to ruin Trump's and the R's outcome. I wish I could be a fly on the wall as they War Game this potentiality in Washington. I'm guessing that the Nation's exposure is Bernie Huge! So, what's the plan?

Years ago the media found several emaciated, starving horses on a downstate farm. Turns out the horses were owned by a Chicago Fireman.

When they cornered the fireman to get his story, he blurts out a fucking classic line: "What do I know about raising horses, I'm a city boy"!! Laughed my ass off...

It’s The Englewood's, takes days and multiple calls to get a pizza, Uber or Comcast to come out, but Animal Control too?
Alligators, coyotes, equine...it’s no wonder the commissioner had recently quit.

Only in Chicago.
“Beltran brought the elderly horse here”... so he had the transportation, just no stable or interment plan.
And the feral pit bulls noshing on the carcass? Maybe it was just rats or old wounds either way if you have sickly horses in the backyard, check on them once in awhile.

I didn’t know horses were allowed in backyards. Chickens, pigs, walleyed baby groot-goats yes. Horsies no.
I had to laugh thinking of a Seinfeld episode:
“Who figures an immigrant's going to have a pony? Do you know what the odds are on that? I mean in all the pictures I saw of immigrants on boats coming into New York harbor, I never saw one of them sitting on a pony!”

A city with revenue disparities.
Only 25 bucks for a horse license. Outrageous!
Shouldn’t that be like a city suv sticker rate of $144 ???
And where’s JB-Hamhocks $151 cut too ?
I’m gonna bet no ANOV was issued for failing to pickup yard poop.

For the record, an IROCC for a cowboy gun is $75 per annum, but add a horse license and its 100 bucks be a High Plains drifter. Groot could rehire retirees on horseback to ferret out misbehaving on the Wild West side and in Englewoods.

From what I read about the horse, the owner wanted to keep an eye on the horse, as he was older(age 28, that's old for a horse). He probably checked on him, but they can die suddenly. Usually someone calls a rendering truck, they take he horse and dispose of it. It is not illegal to have horses on Chicago, just expensive( vet, farrier for shoeing, hay and feed, horse dentist to float(file down the sharp points, their teeth grow their whole life) the teeth, etc. If a horse is not kept in a shelter, then he needs to be blanketed or fed more. Not to mention the waste disposal, and the fact horses can drink 10 to 15 or more gallons of water a day. I hope this helps.
