How many on that ship are like the horses in our herd?! Tommy, Ben, Tex, Willow, Feather......Horses that trust we will care for them and give them the love and respect they deserve. This is an incredible betrayal of our bond, of our decency. A terrible reflection of us culturally, a nation built on horse power. A whole world built with horse power, kingdoms and civilizations and culture and language all spread upon their backs to bring us here??!! To put them through terrifying suffering and abandonment. I doubt any horse cares what you do with their body once they are gone....but to tragically and brutally destroy them and put them through the extreme stress and suffering they surely experience with their extreme sensitivity....is the very definition of cruelty...If it is true that the animals on earth complain to God when we disregard and harm them as so many cultures say in their stories....we are in BIG trouble on the other side. Of course NYCLASS, PETA and all the other groups spending their millions to destroy innocent families and working horse people could care less about this.....but then there is nothing for them to gain in taking this on...no glamour, no real estate.....Ill stop here...Good Night my friends, tomorrow is another day to try again to do something useful for the horses, humans and mother earth and LIFE we love and cherish so much.....
