If you can't win. Make the fellow in front of you break the record.
What's next? Banning the slaughter of chickens? Of cattle?



If their sick/old/wounded then send them to the glue factory.
if not, find them a good home, people will take them for free..
That is so very sad. I love horses sooooo much! You can't compare a horse to a fk'n chicken...For christ sakes.....![]()
Thank you Vaden! Seriously horses can be as intelligent as two year old children. The way they kill these creatures is so disgusting you should see the video at this site http://www.sharkonline.org/horseslaughter.mv
Then come talk about how they should go to the "glue factory"
I just watched all of those videos and I fk'n had tears streaming down my face.That makes me sick!

I had ponies when I was growing up. I did not even bother with the videos...I would not be able to handle that well.

I grew up with horses too Moj. I used to have a clydesdale. He died when I was 10. I was heartbroken. I can't believe some of the people on this planet!Originally Posted by MojoJojo

Mine were actual ponies...nothing like a Clydesdale..holy crap. My pony got tetanus from a little scratch on barbed wire. I sat with her until it was all over. I think I was 12.
And for the record, I don't like the thought of any animal being mistreated....and that includes chickens....which I think are just barely a step over a celery stalk.

LMAO Mojo! My grandparents had a chicken farm and they told me that when the chickens were killed they would still run around even without their heads!! Gross I know, but I guess that's where the expression comes from.![]()
They don't actually run...basically, their nerves go into spasms and they essentially jump all over the place, but without any sort of direction. It's a little disturbing to experience, as a child. Their "voicebox" is also fairly low in their throats, so sometimes when their bodies smack against the ground, they let out a cluck.
Aren't you glad you brought it up???

We had chickens...it was part of the lifestyle. Interestingly, as my father enters his older years he has become very reflective on these things and actually regrets having done it. It's odd...I grew up on a farm...but I've never hunted, nor do I have a desire to. I have no issue with others hunting provided they actually use it for food...but I still don't wish to be a part of it.
...and yes.....I enjoy a good steak. I just don't want it to be a mistreated steak![]()

THe way we treat all "farm" (read as "factory") animals is disgusting....
I have no problem with food chain, but be respectful of them, make their lives happy (not 24/7 in a cage they can't turn around in or sit) and make their deaths quick and painless (emotionally and physically).
why is that so hard for humans?





for the record, not all the horses are old or sick, in fact it seem few are. Some are no longer wanted from racetracks, riding stables. Many of the animals could be put to good uses. Miniture horses, some of which get slaughtered too, are used as guide animals for the blind. Regular horses have been used in treatment of autistic adults/adolescents. A wheelchair bound little girl was able to walk, after much time riding (the gait of the horse helped her, + gave her confidence). It's NOT about banning beef. Please, Gabe, & Degol, read the sites. Thank you.

That, Whirlerz, is what makes it so much more repulsive.
Why are the beef-cows and chickens raised then slaughtered? - for food
Why are these horses raised then slaughtered? Ah...well, they were raised for entertainment...to make some money for someone by running around a track...then after working their asses off...they are slaughtered for personal convenience...to get rid of them....to get them out of the way...while there IS something better that can be done.
I see a major lapse in morality, there.

Survival of the fittest. Sad? of course... But thats life.
P.S. Don't horses have brains the size of a peanut?
Survival of the fittest does not have to translate into being an asshole. And what does the brain-size have to do with being respectful toward life? Hell....we just re-elected someone with a brain the size of a peanut!

If you believe in survival of the fittest, quit going to the doctor. But don't tell me perfectly healthy horses need to die because they aren't doing too hot in the races. It's about valuing life, no matter what animal it might be or how large its brain is. That's a sick way of deciding who deserves to live. After all, how big are our human brains and how much of it do we actually use?
To add about horses that are killed unnessecarily: Horses that are born in factories that produce hormones for women are killed too, as young as young as days old. The mares are kept pregnant their entire lives so raised levels of hormones can be harvested in their urine, but once they give birth the foals are taken away that day and the mare is refertilized.![]()

It's an animal, a beautiful one at that.
Would you want your dog being treated that way?![]()
And that is not even giving them the chance for survival.....
It is not a necessity for a human to kill a horse in order to survive....![]()
And quite frankly, that statement is a blanket acceptance of any time one life form abuses, damanges and/or destroys another. Including humans....children...spouses...animal cruelty is okay by that reasoning...think about it.Survival of the fittest. Sad? of course... But thats life.
