My Heart's with the Horses
Dear Readers,
I am not going to post a link to the heart-stopping film of American horses shipped to Mexico for slaughter. Instead, I'll quote Nancy Perry, vice president of government affairs for The HSUS:
"Our past film footage from inside American horse slaughter facilities demonstrated what a horror show these plants were—horses were not adequately stunned and then left kicking while hoisted and having their throats slit...
"Now that states have shut their plants, our horses are subjected to intense suffering and abuse during long trips to Mexican slaughterhouses where they are stabbed to death. It is time for this carnage to end and for Congress to pass H.R.
503/S. 311 and ban the slaughter of American horses—and their export for such a purpose—once and for all."
My heart's STILL with the horses,
Terri
