And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two?

Anyone who fires a weapon that close to a horses ears should be banned from ever riding a horse. You wouldn't do that with a child so why is it okay with a horse? Totally unacceptable behavior.
It's part of Cowboy Action Shooting, They ride around an an arena similar to barrel racing and shoot at balloons on stakes. The use .45 Colt powder only charges and it's actually the burning powder that pops the balloons. The horses are trained up so the gunfire doesn't bother them. This has been part of the sport for years.
Blaa blaa end of any barrel should never be fired from behind anything living that you don't want to destroy. I've been fired across. It hurts like hell.
