[QUOTE="ArrowHBrand, post: 617645, member: 6496"] Ok lets get back to the original jist of the post...abandonment of horses. I just heard on the radio this morning that PETA wrote a letter to the mayor of Spearfish, SD requesting they change the name of their town. Good intentions don't always make for good business. Now that PETA, SPCA, and HSUS has gotten the horse industry into such disarray, I want to hear how they plan on fixing it. Up here two mules were found on a golf course with auction stickers on the rumps. No one came forward to claim them and after a month a local guy paid the Sheriffs Dept. $40 for [u][i]both[/i][/u]. I feel horse slaughter is a necessary evil, I would try it and probably enjoy it, but I'd never sell one of my horses knowing it would be going to slaughter. The average Joe sees horses as lovable pets and not livestock and that is how the slaughter ban was pushed into law. Now that they've ruined an industry I wonder what kind of plans they have to take in these unwanted horses. Don't think they'll stop with horses being slaughtered either... [/QUOTE]
