The titillating story of South Carolinian Rodell Vereen, "busted for having sex with a horse, while on probation for having sex with the same horse," seems far less prurient when it is presented as an opportunity for citizens to express their opinions on the subject in the form of an Internet poll. That said, the lack of an option suggesting that Vereen do the right thing and marry the long-suffering object of his affections is rather revealing as to how far our values have fallen in this country. (You may also enjoy the comment section on the article, which has somehow turned into a conversation about race. Maybe President Obama should invite Rodell and the horse to the White House for a beer!)

A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And no one can bugger a horse, of course--
That is, of course, unless the horse
Is the famous Mr. Ed!
I am disappointed with the google ads on this page. What does a solar energy charity PSA have to do horse buggery?
Right? Surely there are horse pimp sites advertising somewhere on the web.
Too bad they don't troll craigslist for ads.
This country needs to return to an era of good, old-fashioned values.
It all went downhill when the automobile replaced the horse and buggery.
Hey, speak for yourself. Nothing gets between me and my Mini (AKA "the spinner").
I blame Daniel Radcliffe and his sexy, sexy performance in Equus that brought humans doing horrific, unspeakable things to horses back into the public eye.
If I remember correctly, the Hittite law code specifically exempted horses from its ban on interspecies lovemaking.
It may be his business, but it's not his horse. If he wants to bugger a horse, let him buy his own. After all, would you let a man piss in YOUR jeep without permission? No, you would not. So why should we allow this man to go around branding someone else's livestock?
No guy's gonna wanna buy that horse now that she's been around.
How is "He needs Mental Help, NOW!" a potential legal consequence?
I think the bigger question is, was the horse asking for it?
The horse has brought shame to her family.
The horse was nude. You do the math.
Thanks for the invite, Mr. President. I'll have a Budweiser draft. Oh, and for my beer? I'm parial to Olympia, I really like their logo.
"When Kenley pointed a shotgun at Vereen, he claimed to be looking for a bathroom."
I suppose he didn't want to go in his jeep.
Surely there is some organization out there who can step up to this guy's defense.
Loving Other Vertebrate Entities? PETA?
Nah, PETA would just 'rescue' the poor horse and then euthanize it in a parking lot. So they'd be no help.
As they say, you can put lipstick on a pig, but this is a horse of a different color that won't drink.
This whole story is disconcertingly unclear to me. Is the horse a boy-horse or a girl-horse? We know the horse's name, but unfortunately "Sugar" is a gender-neutral name for horses. Because I really want to know if this guy is gay. Then I can answer the poll.
The word "filly" refers to a female horse, so it seems Sugar is a girl. And if they were using the word by it's proper definition she's also a very young horse, making this horse bugger a horse pedophile.
Thanks for the clarification! I have answered the poll, and will now always smile a little smile when I think about Philadelphia baseball teams.
Clearly not. The article states the Horse was 21 years old, and therefore legal.
Also, I'd like put in the request that the tag "HE TOUCHED HER NEIGH NEIGH" Be put into high rotation.
Woops, I missed that! I guess "mare" doesn't sound as zippy as "filly," but really, where is their journalistic dedication to the facts?
Seriously, can we truly say we are a free people if we can't have sex with horses? I understand that if it were, say, a cat or a dog, it'd be another matter, but a horse is a fucking veheometh (I can't be arsed to look up the correct spelling), and all I'm saying is, if you manage to insert your junk inside such a gargantuan animal, there shouldn't be a law against it. Besides, if the horse don't like it much, the beast has the option of kicking you dead, no? But as I mention above, this should only apply to certain animals. Big animals that can kill you. Say moose and cows and shit. No house pets. Probably no deer, though I've seen some bucks that could put a hurting on a body, so maybe the deer thing should be more subjective. Like maybe if you get caught doing a deer, the deer should be taken into court as evidence. And it it's a delicate doe, looking all sweet and shit, then maybe the judge can charge you with some sort of buggery. But if it's some big-ass fierce-looking buck, then they should let you go. And maybe you can high-five the bailiff on your way out and shit.
Hey, I litigate, and we call it the "Bambi Defense." Crap, if I had a nickel for every buck trying to claim a Bambi. A lot of hunters have suffered, I tell you.
