Hey, I didn't know that you couldn't cross breed Fjords to mules or

Instead of all the worry about horse thieves, why not just bring back the
old penalty for horse thievery. The crime would go away quite quickly after
the first few necks were stretched! It wouldn't be a bad idea for the modern
version auto theft, either.
