They did SOMETHING with him...
there are FAR worse things going on in the horse world today that a not so pretty GELDING that someone took the time to show in 4-H... maybe they started him too young (if they did it was most likely because they didnt know any better, not for finacial gain).. but... by earning those lousy 4-H ribbons, that horse has a shot at a home instead of a one way ticket to Canada or Mexico.... go bash on the people who really deserve it.

Right! What's so bad with showing what they accomplished in an ad for peats sake. I think it gives the poor fugly grade pony an edge over the other fugly grade ponies (and there is a gazillion of them out there). Hey- it got your attention didn't it?? Showing or competing in anything is not free and they at least put some time and money into him. You need to give them a break.
