The media’s recent breathless coverage of the mounted Border Patrol agents trying to control the unabated and increased flow of Haitian immigrants to our southern border has resulted in quite a bit of confusion, namely over this whole “whips” thing. What appear to people familiar with horses as reins are, in fact, whips used for beating humans, according to many respectable, much more worldly and knowledgeable journalists.
Is there anyone who can tell us what’s actually going on?
Tanner ~ You can't really use split reins for whipping people. They are mostly used to slap the skin of the horse to tell them to go faster but split reins don't even hurt that much because the material is loose compared to tightly compacted whips so comparing the two is wrong and idiotic.
You know what would really clear this up once and for all is a handy guide to what is and is not a whip.
That’s where Twitchy regular @MidnightMitch comes in. His guide should be posted in newsrooms all over the country:

Doesn’t get simpler and more straightforward than that.

Ozark Finesse Guy Redux ~ Those are actually the most dangerous of your average horse's whip array.
𝔇𝔢𝔞𝔱𝔥'𝔰 𝔊𝔲𝔦𝔫𝔢𝔞 𝔓𝔦𝔤 4.0 ~ You missed one.
Prison Mitch ~ Dammit.
Well, you can rest assured that Kamala ala Bimbo wouldn't have missed that one!
OK, now it’s complete.

Will this do?

Perfect. We’re officially done here.
