I won't read it but I could care less about watching a MULE slide off a platform. I can think of waaaaaay more exciting things to watch. PETA and the like should be pushed off that platform as they complain about any and everything.

So let me get this straight....... Someone in northern Europe (UK) with their 70F summer highs are saying that it is cruel to allow a mule to jump into water during a 105F summer day in central Texas? Oh the cruelty! Imagine actually makin' it pull a plow in that heat!

Heck, I'll take the job of jumping in the dang water!

They dont seem to mind doing it, but I wouldnt think it would be very good for the mules.

How are the dog shows at the state fair any different? The mules probably get used to it and enjoy cooling off. There are worse things happening in this world.
