[QUOTE="BTRANCH, post: 260008, member: 4126"] There is a horse slaughter plant in Kaufman, TX that I pass by everyday on my way to feed my animals. I can see the tops of their heads over the solid walls. I say a silent prayer for each animal. We have a problem with animals being stolen and sold for slaughter. Most of the time, the animals are gone before the owners can do anything about it. I don't have a problem with putting down an injured or sick animal of any kind, but I do have a problem with slaughtering these animals for export purposes only. Most of the meat goes to Japan. It just seems that our country is ruled by the almighty dollar more than anything anymore and it saddens me. There have been several attempts to shut the Kaufman plant down, but some special interest group manages to keep it open. It is not very popular in the area. [/QUOTE]
