THE TREK ACROSS AMERICA WITH TWO STRAIGHT EGYPTIANS
Arabian Horse World
"On April 16, 2021, Patrick Sullivan of Modern Day Horsemanship started his 2,500 mile journey from Sacramento, California to Georgetown, Kentucky, where he arrived on October 16, 2021. 
He took two Straight Egyptian Arabian horses, the black mare Gamilah MJA, sired by Bellagio RCA, out of the Thee Desperado+ daughter, Thee Bahieh, and her maternal brother, grey gelding Haleem MJA, sired by Thee Infidel, out of Thee Bahieh.
He did this incredible trek bridleless and mostly bareback, and visited 20 non-profits, local rescues, and charities while providing liberty demonstrations along the way.

Shawn Crews sat down with Patrick to revisit this incredible journey.
Shawn:  I’ll never forget the day when you told me your plan to do this, and honestly, Patrick, I know your whole family and I come from a very optimistic family, however, I considered your level of optimism to be triple of what I know. I’ve known you since before you were involved in horses. Your goal is so large and you have such a positive attitude, but still when you told me about this we were shocked. We are all very horse show goal-oriented, so I was curious as to why you chose to do something so different with your Straight Egyptian. 
What was the seed that led you to this tremendous adventure?  How did you come up with this plan and was was the vision you had in mind?
Patrick: You were not the only one who thought this was a bit crazy. This idea started six to seven years ago, and started when my mother told me that my great grandfather saw his first Arabian horse in the Chicago state fair in 1945 and fell in love. He ended up purchasing a few horses, however after him, they got out of Arabians until my mother got involved through Arabians Limited and you (Shawn Crews).  The idea of this ride was to honor my great grandfather and ride from Texas to the location of the Chicago State Fair where my grandfather’s love began. Slowly the ride transformed into something much bigger, hoping to inspire people to think deeper about the Arabian horse and the connection we can have with them through liberty and bridleless riding.
I have read many historical books like The Classic Arabian Horse by Judith Forbis, and the Authentic Arabian Bloodstock books about how the Arabian horses lived in the tents with the bedouins and were treated as family. I wanted to test that legend out and bring our Arabian horses into our family. I want to really feel and say that these horses are exactly what history says. For me, the way to do this was to ride across the country with them and see if it is possible.
It was a long and amazing journey, one that I will cherish forever.
Shawn: No one in our time here has proved these horses’ athletic abilities until you and Gamilah. Did Gamilah inspire your plan to do this, or did the plan come first?
Patrick: It was a little bit of both.  The reason I chose Gamilah to be the main instrument in the journey is because she was the first horse I had started under saddle. She was strong, opinionated and sassy. She is incredibly intelligent and we butted heads for years, however, the more I learned to listen to her and train her in the way she wanted to be trained, the more she wanted to give me. Once we came to that agreement, I knew there was no other soul on this planet that I would want to make this trip with than Gamilah. At the end of the day, I have always told people that I trusted her with my life. I knew she would keep me safe and keep herself safe; We went through so much together. I told her, if we are going to do this, we are going to do it together.
When I think about mares, especially the Arabian mares, I know they can be very difficult at times to earn their trust and respect, a lot more difficult than the geldings. However, when you get to reach the heart of a mare, they will do anything for you.
Shawn: How old was Gamilah when you started this ride?
Patrick: She was 10 years old. We left two days after her birthday.
Shawn: Tell me about the logistics of this trip. Nettie followed you with the trailer, so you always had a safety fall back should you need anything, and you had host farms set up along the way. However, there must have been long stretches along the way without lodging. That is a lot of miles, many of which are not civilized, explain the logistics.
Patrick: Nettie is one of my best friends in the whole world.  Initially, she was going to ride with me. However, three months before, she called and said that she was pregnant and couldn’t ride alongside. So, they decided that she would drive the truck and trailer with her camera and document the journey.
We followed HWY 50. For the most part, the highways had a large shoulder which allowed them to stay 30-40 feet off the road, while the smaller roads we were right alongside. I kept panels on the side of the trailer and each night, we would set up a 20′ x 20′ pen behind the trailer where the horses stayed while we slept in the living quarters of the horse trailer.  
So many wonderful people stopped along the way were offering assistance, and inviting us into their homes and barns to layover. It was amazing to experience the generosity of the people, stopping to be sure we were okay.
The best part of the ride, in regards to logistics, were the western states of Utah, Nevada, California, and Colorado. It was more open and had so much public land. The terrain was difficult and at one point, we rode up to 11,000 feet in Colorado. As we ventured East, the logistics became a bit more of a challenge.
We went through mountains, deserts, valleys, small towns, fair grounds, rivers. We went through it all!
Shawn: As the ride progressed and word spread, you seemed to gain momentum with the local press.
Patrick: Yes, honestly the ride was amazing, but the most important part of this ride for us was being able to give back to the Arabian horse. We ended up stopping at 19 different non-profits in 11 different states. We would educate them about liberty riding and use our horses to showcase how capable the Arabian horse is, and how powerful the horse-human connection is.
We stopped by non-profits for kids, for the mentally ill and even a prison to educate the prisoners on horsemanship. Our horses were able to teach all that we visited and that was so rewarding. These organizations helped us get through the long days, knowing that our next stop was going to help and educate the next group of people about our Arabian horses and their amazing personalities.
Shawn: You have mentioned the liberty aspect of this ride a few times, can you explain a bit about what liberty means.
Patrick: Liberty is being able to do almost anything with a horse without a halter. Express to your horse what you want it to do, without a bridle or halter. The relationship between horse and human, along with trained cues is the key to create a bond. I often relate to the movie Avatar, if you have the ability to connect with another being, in this case being a horse, they can take us to see things that we could never do on our own. Gamilah and Hal gave me this experience along our journey.
Shawn: Did you feel a bit like those pioneers that crossed the country so many years ago in their covered wagons?
Patrick: One of the main parts about the trip (possibly 1,000 miles), we followed the Pony Express Trail. The pony express was used as a form of communication across the country long before technology. I learned how incredibly strong people were back then. Their lives revolved around horseback, compasses and reading the stars. From time to time, I liked to think that we were the new generation of explorers, experiencing what our ancestors had. Hoping to push the next steps in horsemanship and prove that the Arabian horse is one of the foundation breeds of our country. 
Shawn: I have great respect for all Arabian horses, however, my life has revolved around the Straight Egyptian Arabian horse. Are there any special traits to the Straight Egyptian that you feel helped in this experience? Knowing that you have experience with other bloodlines and other breeds, what made the Straight Egyptian special?
Patrick: I’ve never met another horse that could have made that trip, and there is no other horse I would attempt to do it with. What I feel separates the Straight Egyptian is their heart. If you really look at the heart, they are old souls. They seem to be here to teach us, and I believe this comes from their ancestors. I truly believe the Straight Egyptian is the old soul of all horses. When I look in Gamilah’s eyes, I see that soul and it has taught me so much! 
There are good things and bad things said about the Straight Egyptian Arabian horse. For anyone who has ever truly gotten to know one, I think can relate to what I am saying.
Shawn: In this project, you have mentioned Nettie being an amazing support, along with your family and a group of sponsors that helped make this possible.
Patrick: I think those who supported us are what made this trip so special. There was not a bigger supporter than my mother, Malinda Passmore. she is all about the Straight Egyptian and wants to make it accessible to everyone, especially the geldings. Our other sponsors were Marah Jamil Arabians, Keri and Carolee Wright, Ann and Fred Gabrielli and The Pyramid Society, 
There was one of the biggest professionals in the horsemanship industry that I am friends with. He is not an Arabian horse person, but he told me, “I don’t have a problem with you riding across the country brideless. I don’t have a problem with the time frame or liberty. My biggest concern is that you are doing it on an Arabian!”. This comment inspired me to prove the Arabian stereotype wrong. I will keep his name anonymous out of respect for our friendship, however, I was quite proud to show the world that the Arabian horse can do anything."

The CIA funded research into LSD, disguising the source of funds through false foundations. One of them was based at Georgetown University Hospital. The hundreds of experiments conducted for the CIA used witting and unwitting subjects, and some were conducted under clearly unethical conditions. In one CIA-funded experiment, seven men in a Kentucky prison were kept on LSD for seventy-seven days straight. After another, an army officer who had been unwittingly administered LSD committed suicide.
this is their mkultra explanation like??? i take issue with it.

Federal judge in Ky. rules gun ban for people with domestic violence orders is unconstitutional
A federal judge in Lexington has issued an opinion holding that a federal law prohibiting people from having guns if they have a domestic violence order against them is unconstitutional. The case is one of a series of cases making their way through the federal court system in the wake of a U.S. Supreme Court ruling last year that expanded gun rights.
In an order filed in the Eastern District of Kentucky Feb. 2, Chief U.S. District Judge Danny Reeves dismissed a federal charge against a Harrison County man, Sherman Combs, who had been in possession of a handgun while he was under a domestic violence order. Combs is still facing a second federal charge that accuses him of lying to the firearms dealer about whether he had a DVO when he bought the gun in Georgetown three days after the order was issued.
The decision to dismiss the charge against Combs was based on the 2022 Supreme Court decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association v. Bruen, in which the Supreme Court struck down a New York law that had required citizens to show a special need to carry weapons in public. The ruling changed the way courts evaluate the legality of restrictions on gun possession.
In deciding that case, the Supreme Court found that when courts are evaluating challenges to gun laws, they must ask first whether the conduct being regulated is covered by the text of the Second Amendment, which guarantees the right to bear arms. If it is, they must then consider whether the regulation aligns with the nation’s historical tradition of regulating firearms.
In dismissing the possession charge against Combs, Reeves found that he had not been shown a “comparable historical analogue” to the law prohibiting gun possession by those with a domestic violence order against them.
Combs’ attorney, Thomas Lyons, said that though Combs was “pleased with the dismissal of the charge,” the ruling should not be viewed as “an endorsement for people to have guns when they have a domestic violence order in place.”
“Judge Reeves is obligated by his oath of office to do justice impartially, and to follow the law as pronounced by the Supreme Court,” Lyons said in an email. “This is the essence of the rule of law. I am confident Judge Reeves takes that oath seriously.”
The U.S. Attorney’s Office, which is prosecuting Combs, did not comment on the judge’s order. U.S. Attorney Carlton Shier IV intends to appeal, according to court documents.
A higher court issued a similar opinion the same day Reeves issued his order. In that case, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit, which has jurisdiction over Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas, also ruled as unconstitutional the law banning people under domestic violence orders from having firearms. The three judges in that case also cited the Bruen decision, saying the 1994 law’s “ban on possession of firearms is an ‘outlier that our ancestors would never have accepted.’”
Some advocates for victims of domestic violence are concerned about the rulings.
“It is disappointing, especially given the situations we’ve had in Lexington recently around domestic violence and victims being killed using guns,” said Fayette County Attorney Angela Evans. “It’s a disservice to victims. It’s a disservice to the community.”
She said that that knowing that their partner wouldn’t be permitted to have guns is “probably something that was a comfort to people who would file” for a DVO, and she wondered if the rulings would “cause a lot of hesitation” among victims considering filing for an order.
“What has this law prevented from happening? I’m not sure, but I’m concerned that we might find out,” Evans said.
“As someone who works for a domestic violence shelter, we obviously have strong feelings about people with DVOs against them possessing firearms,” said Veronica Christian, a family advocate at GreenHouse 17.
Allowing people who are under domestic violence orders to have guns seems like “giving a dangerous person another way to be dangerous,” she said.
State court documents indicate that Combs’ wife sought and was granted a domestic violence order against Combs, 50, on June 15 in Harrison District Court.
On June 18, according to federal court documents, Combs bought a .357 Magnum revolver in Scott County, representing to the dealer “that he was not subject to a court order restraining him from harassing, stalking or threatening an intimate partner or child of such partner.”
He allegedly texted his partner in violation of the DVO five times on June 25 and 26. When a sheriff’s deputy arrived to arrest him in Cynthiana the following day, Combs had a revolver in a holster on his hip, court documents state.
Though the charge related to Combs’ possession of the gun has been dismissed, he is still facing a federal charge alleging that he lied to the firearms dealer. A pretrial conference is scheduled for Feb. 15.

An excerpt from my unpublished novel:
I’d gotten on the road early – just after 4:30, but by 7 I was getting hungry. So, I took the exit to Georgetown, Kentucky, and pulled into a truck stop. They don’t call them truck stops anymore. This was a Pilot Travel Center. But anywhere with food, gas, and a restroom suited me just fine. I’d ordered what I always order, and got a suspicious look from the waitress when I passed on the coffee. But once she realized I wasn’t from Mars, she warmed up to me. Clara was her name, and she looked like a woman who spent her off hours doting on her grandkids.
I finished my breakfast, used the facilities, and went to the register to pay the check. I was about to get back into the car when a voice said, “By any chance are you headin’ South, Mister?”
I turned around, and standing in front of me was a tall, gangly dark-haired girl wearing a t-shirt, faded blue jeans, a red bandana, pink sneakers, and carrying a backpack.
“I am. Orlando, Florida. Why?”
“How about a ride?”
“How old are you?”
“Does that matter?”
“It does to me. I don’t want a Chuck Berry rap.”
“Who’s Chuck Berry?”
“Never mind.”
She took her backpack off, unzipped one of the flaps, and pulled out a wallet, and handed it to me. “My license is in there.”
I looked at it, and read the name Deirdre Clark. She had a Georgetown address, and, well, well, well…what do you know? It just happened to be her eighteenth birthday.
“Well?” she asked.
“Happy Birthday.”
“Thanks. How about making a present of that ride?”
“You leavin’ home?”
“If you must know, yeah. I’m eighteen now. I can do as I please.”
“Your parents know you’re leavin’?”
“They will soon enough. Look, if you can’t help me, there are plenty of cars and trucks here. I’m sure somebody would be willing to give me a lift. I can pay my share of the gas. And do some drivin’ if you want.”
“You think it’s smart hanging around a truckstop lookin’ for a ride? You can get into trouble that way.”
“I can take care of myself.”
“What makes you think you’re safe with me?”
“I was sittin’ in the booth behind yours inside, and I heard you talkin’ to the waitress. I figure a guy that was that sweet to a complete stranger probably never hurt a woman in his life.”
Well, she was young, but it turns out she was a good judge of character. I supposed a little company wouldn’t hurt. But there was no way I was gonna leave her in a truckstop looking for a ride. I wouldn’t have it on my conscience if something happened to her.
“Get in. There’s still some space in the back seat on the floor on the passenger side. You can put your backpack there. How far you want to go?”
“Orlando sounds good to me if that’s okay?”
“I figure to get there before 9 tonight. We’ll stop for dinner. Otherwise I’d like to drive straight through.”
“You’re the boss.”
“Oh, and one more thing…”
“What now?”
“I pick the music.”
“Sure. Whatever.”

The Indiana State Police have confirmed that 14-year-old Emily Barger is missing and have issued a Silver Alert regarding her disappearance. The Floyd County Sheriff's Department in Indiana is investigating what happened to Barger.
She is described as white female, 5 feet tall, 85 pounds with blonde hair and blue eyes. It is unknown what she was last seen wearing.
Barger is from Georgetown, Indiana, which is 5 miles northwest of Louisville, Kentucky, and 120 miles south of Indianapolis. She was last seen on Monday at 1 a.m.
Authorities said "she is believed to be in extreme danger" but the alert did not go into greater detail as to why or what that danger is.
Police have asked the public for their help in finding Barger and said that anyone with information should contact the Floyd County Sheriff's Department at 812-948-5400 or 911.
On Tuesday, Barger's father, Shawn Barger, took to social media to ask for help locating his daughter. He said that she might be in a "older [possibly] Chevy truck with a loud exhaust and rusty body."
On his Facebook, Shawn Barger also posted a message directly to his daughter.
He wrote: "Emily Barger if you can see this in any way please come home you are in no trouble and I love and miss you very much you have tons of family and friends out looking for you wanting to get you home please go to a gas station anywhere and tell them you need to get home call the police or me or anyone just please get home I love you."
Newsweek reached out to the Indiana State Police Department via email for comment.
It is estimated that 2,300 children are missing every day in the United States, according to a report by Child Find of America.
The report said that children can go missing for a many reasons, including a misunderstanding, running away or being thrown out, getting lost, stranded or injured, family abduction and stranger abduction.
The National Incidence Studies of Missing, Abducted, Runaway, and Thrownaway Children (NISMART) program uses these five categories when identifying why a child might have gone missing.
Regarding children that run away or are thrown out, it said: "Runaway cases occur when a child of 14 years or less leaves home without permission for at least one night.
"For older children, a runaway is defined as a child who stay out for at least two nights. Thrown away episodes occur when a parent or other household adult tells a child to leave the house without arranging alternative care and prevents the child from returning home."
