[RC] Horse Slaughter - Richard Sacks

Until you watch these videos don't make up your mind about horse slaughter (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoIAYIgH_6Y or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8KBhaeOp2yA). A warning, the video is extremely graphic. I t has been flagged by youtube and you may need to create an acount to view. IMO, if you can't commit to take care of an animal for it's entire life than you shouldn't own one. Just like people who own parrots have to think about who is going to take care of them when they out live you. It's a question of responsibility and morality. Some people have it and some don't. Breeders who breed and dump should be stopped. Riders and owners who view their horses like motorcycles shouldn't own them. If the French and other countries want to eat horse meat, let them grow their own. There just isn't any way to justify this.
