Re: [RC] Read this and WEEP! - John Teeter

steph can give the?authoritative answer, but IMO this topic, while central to the equine community, is tangential to the specific purpose of this list.?

So my vote is that those who wish to continue with, and focus upon, this particular issue should?coalesce a new discussion group for that purpose.

correct me Steph and john if I am wrong but this topic pertains to all of the horses and to us and our decisions to sell horses and whether or not they are going to a good home or better yet are they going to meet a very brutal death??? I have bought several horses at an auction and spent the first 6 years of my life at the Chino Auction with my stepfather who was a horse trainer and shoer. I think it is appropriate as I want to know what happens to my endurance horse when they are traded from one hand to another. I will be the first to tell you that I voted to the no slaughter rule without any thought to the eventual outcome of the horse's final destination. I know I missed the mark in voting as my real concern is the way the horses are transported and slaughtered not the actual act of slaughtering these wonderful creatures. This act can be done in a humane way and its no skin off of anyone's back. They are our national treasures?and should be treated as a national treasures. There has to be a solution that will benefit all the horses and parties in question. So brainstorming is the key here and hopefully we can all come together for the good of the horse.
