Now shes insisting I pull down the TRUTHFUL things I posted about her.
That isn't how the law works, Roxanne. You see, here in America, we have a little thing known as freedom of speech. You see, when someone wants to talk about or write about the vile things another person has done to them , they can.
On the other hand, slanderous speech, such as that which you are accustomed to make against myself and other carriage drivers, is NOT protected under the First Amendment. So, say whatever you like about me personally. Call me "fat", "ugly", so on and so forth. It only shows how insecure you are about your own shortcomings.
Heres yet another way I am going to excercise my freedom of speech.
Below you will find a link to a video that shows Roxie calling children in carriages a**holes on Christmas Day. You will also see a mother telling the WPIX channel 11 news reporter that she made her little girl cry. Nice, Roxanne.

More posts coming SOON
With a little baby, its hard to write the blog. But, I promise Ill update it with more posts soon. A LOT has happened in the last few months since the hearing... A LOT. But, we are still hanging in there. We are remaining strong and committed to defeating the lying hypocrites who harass us daily. We will NEVER give up. Our horses depend on us; other peoples horses depend on us! If we let them take us down, who's next? Race horses, jumping horses, show horses, the common back yard horse?! They will never defeat us!
Roxanne Delgado, Elizabeth Forel, ARA's
WOW! Its been a long while since my last post. Its been a very busy 6 months. I had a beautiful baby boy in April. Hes happy and healthy.
Roxanne, this is for you!!!! HES HAPPY AND HEALTHY. Unlike you!
You see...Roxanne Delgado, one of the sad freaks who have decided to devote their entire lives to putting our beautiful horses out of business, decided that it was a good idea to write me a note explaining how she "hopes my child is dead or deformed". I had the email screen shot for posterity, and also to prove that what I'm saying is not a lie.
If any of my readers were on the fence about the personality disorders these ara whack jobs have...well, here's more proof.
These ara's are sick, twisted, lonely folks who wish nothing but harm on others. Like I said before; It is NOT about the horses. It is about the drivers and their intense hatred for us. They don't like that each and every time they speak out against us, we make them look like fools.
Roxanne isn't the only one to wish harm upon my then unborn child. Elizabeth Forel had a few things to say to me at the hearing in January. But, alas, that nut was thrown out of the hearing by the Sergeant at arms for verbally assaulting me as a walked by after my testimony.
So, I know you ghoulish freaks are reading this. I just had to speak my peace about how you have spilled your hatred onto a little, tiny, innocent being. And you people like to say you are "compassionate". Right!

Another NY Daily News Editorial in Support of our Industry
Another NY Daily News Editorial in support of our beloved carriage horses! I'm so glad we've touched the hearts of so many jaded New Yorkers with our story. It seems like every day we fight the good fight we are getting more and more support. A day doesn't go by where people don't stop and ask what all the fuss is about. They can see our horses for themselves, and when they do, they find it hard to believe we are being vilified the way we are. Business has not faltered, and this Valentines day was one of the busiest EVER. But, we cant stop now. We must keep up the fight. Not only for ourselves, but for ALL carriage businesses, and other animal enterprises.

NYC horses have it cushy: Central Park is lots better than glue factory
Tuesday, March 3rd 2009, 4:00 AM
Animal rights advocates whinny that carriage horses lead awful lives. Truth is, those equines are royalty compared to the depressed masses.
A report in The New York Times says it's an awful time to be a horse, citing a spike in abandonment and scores of unwanted horses being fattened in feedlots before getting sent to slaughter.
Free Central Park's proud carriage horses? Do we really need more glue?

Animal Rights Terrorists Dont Want to Admit Defeat/Attack Drivers Instead
Some of you may have seen some of the nice comments Ive been receiving from my activist friends. One simply says "asshole", while another is somewhat more eloquently written in what I'm guessing can only be pig Latin.....
"you are really an idiot or just a liar? even idiots find jobs that require a minimal function brain. I am sure you can handle it if you focus hard"
Hmmm....o.k.
Some things could not be published. And you should see the comments on my youtube videos that I didnt take down...there were also some that were so vile I felt obligated to erase them.
THIS is the TRUE nature of the animal rights activist. When they can no longer justify their slander; when they are no longer allowed to spew hate at will; when they are confronted with the truth; when they are outed as the liars and extremists they are, they resort to juvenile name calling and attempting to anonymously harass, malign, and belittle us. Its pathetic. Its time to admit your lies, and resign to your defeat.
To these people it is no longer about "the horses". Maybe it never was. Either way, their focus is now on us as individuals. They want revenge for being outed as know-nothing extremists. They can not admit defeat and so, now it is their goal to personally attack each and every driver. We have been confronted with threats of violence, personal attacks, character assassination, racist remarks, and even threatened with IRS investigation! Good luck, guys. We have nothing to hide. So, your witch hunt can go on. But, just know, you are only showing yourselves as ignorant, self-serving monsters. So, go to it.......You'll NEVER stop us from working with our beloved horses!

Hearing at NYC City Hall
The TRUTH can not be hidden. The hearing at City Hall went VERY well. We were vindicated in many areas. Over 500 people packed the chambers with another 100 in the overflow room. The crowd was equally divided between those who want the carriages to stay and those who don't. There were 160 people who testified, about 80 on each side. I left after 6.5 hours and it was STILL in full swing. There was no vote last night, but it seems that Avella's bill to ban our iconic industry is
D-E-A-D.
I will be posting more information later on some of the crazier happenings of the event (and believe me, there were many....a three ring circus comes to mind).
Now its just a matter of wait-and-see if we are going to get a rate increase; the first in 20 years.
I will keep everyone posted........
THANK YOU to everyone for their continued support of our industry. I hope that our successes will resonate to stop legislation that hurts those of us who work with animals. The animal rights terrorists must be STOPPED!

The NYC Carriage Drivers are Teamsters!
The NYC carriage drivers have made history as the first modern carriage horse industry in America to join the Teamsters Union. As you may know the Teamsters were originally formed by horsemen who drove teams of horses delivering heavy freight in 1903. These men, their horses, and their Union kept America running. Since then the Teamsters Union has swelled to over 1.4 million members nation wide, with 120,000 in NYC alone.
Our Local is 553. In the late 1800's we were known as the Team Coal drivers, a group of horsemen who delivered coal all over this great city. Since the automotive era, however, the Local has been made up of the oil delivery drivers who still call the buildings where they keep their oil trucks "barns".
As Teamsters, we and our brothers have access to political representation at the city, state, and national level. Owning and operating an animal enterprise such as ours, is a labor issue as much as it is an animal issue. Here in NYC, we have demonstrated the checks and balances that are in place for our horses, as well as the good care we provide them. Should the same not be available to the carriage drivers, the stable workers, the stables owners, and any other worker in our industry?
We should note that being a member of this Local in no way pits the drivers against the owners, or vise versa. We are all members together; owners, drivers, stablemen, etc.
Here is the link to the article in the NY daily News....
