Re: RC: Horse Slaughter

[Gwen Dluehosh <dluehosh@juno.com>]

I agree with Heidi 100%. ANd I have HAD this scenario happen to me. 
Try getting a divorce sometime from a spouse who doesn't care whether you
have horses or not. - and doesn't care whether they eat or not. I have
seen horses colicked because of this scenario. ( NO, not mine.) 
I have ALMOST been there. 
My dad probably gave me the best advice. He said, " If you want horses,
you better durn well have a good enough job to afford it." He was right.
It's the only protection you can truly have, and if you get laid off,
well, money IS important.
Unfortunately.
And, BTW, I lived in France for a year, and I have HAD horsemeat. At
SCHOOL. IT was lunch.  And though I was not happy that my classmates
didn't tell me what it was at first since they knew I was the local horse
nut, I have to say it tastes just fine.
We are indeed lucky to be able to have choices for our horses.
