Slaughter

Hmmmm........... The issue of slaughter, a much discussed issue it is. Many believe horse slaughter is a very bad thing, and that it is, but what would you rather watch; a horse shot in the head and then slaughtered? Or, a horse slowly starved to the point it is so weak that it is unable to stand up, and they lay there and moan and hollar for help only to then be dragged away and eaten by wild animals while they are still alive?

Hmmm...tough choice isn't it? And don't give me the "I would put it down before it starves." line of bull shit, not all people are like you, some don't care, at all or ever. When they see are horse they either see a walking dollar sign or a waste of money hay burner. That's it.

The laws use to say horses are livestock, the same as cows, pigs and the whole lot of other animals, they are raised for a purpose and when their purpose is done, some people don't care where they go. If they aren't making them money, they are useless. Period!

I believe that horses are livestock, therefore they are food. Would I eat a horse, I don't know, probably not if I knew what it was. Personally when my horses are done working for me, they will be retired to my nice green grass pastures and cared for until there end, but not all people are like me and you, they don't care. That's it, the end.
