Horses were carelessly abused and killed in the making of this video, and I won't stand for it. Until he has not only openly apologized and something is done to the people who hurt these horses, I won't have anything to do with him

In reply to your questions, this is no new thing. There have been open protests at movie theatres and there are even country stations not playing his music until the movie is removed from theatres. The movie is based off the old movie "My Friend Flicka," "Flicka" is a total disgrace to both, because they're both based off the book My Friend Flicka, which was one of my favorite books growing up.
This is just another disgusting display of human ignorance to feelings and pain of animals. Please spread the word and boycott this movie and Tim McGraw. If this had happened to a human we'd never hear the end of it.

In reply to ms they were on site when it happened. They died to do carelessness, after the accident had happened there was nothing left to do for them.
I have handled horses my entire life and have worked with hundreds of horses, the neglect they took in going on with this event is disgusting. Even after these horses were killed, production resumed and more horses were put to the same game.
It is careless and I'm very upset with the humane society in their neglect to bring these people to justice. I truly believe someone was paid off, because if you know anything about horses you would know these horses were acting out of fear and frustration and that it was the disgusting push to get a scene instead of taking the time to consider the well being of these animals.
