The trouble here is that the ones driving the opposition to slaughter are doing it because slaughter, by it’s nature, is the low hanging fruit in their effort to eliminate all uses of animals by humans.
Those are the animal rights extremist groups, with their millions and propaganda and lobbying against it and the hordes following them blindly, not realizing where their support is taking them, as they are in the end supporting those that want to make all animals off hands to humans, eventually.
You say this and that you don’t like about slaughter, not slaughter itself, that is like any other process, as well managed or not as any other process we may have.
So, the solution is to work at making those parts of the process that are not up to par better, not to, as anti-slaughter propaganda wants, following animal rights extremists agendas, ban slaughter altogether.
Those are important differences, that animal rights extremists love to muddle, so they get followers.[/QUOTE]
You couldn’t be more wrong. People like nick zito, oppose it and he hardly wants to see animal ownership ended much less horse ownership. Most people that are against the
Aughter of horses are that way because of the whole process, from lying kill buyers pretending to promise a god home, to auction conditions, transport conditions, feedlot conditions, and the fast paced slaughter process that has a high miss rate. In addition, the forged paperwork, illegal meds used in horses that are slaughtered, lack of testing of horses for banned meds, and failure to track stolen horses also play in to it.
There is no one on this board against horse slaughter that wants animal ownership to end.
