It was his animal.
Have you ever killed a rat or eaten meat that was slaughtered?
And no, I’ve never killed a rat. But a rat and a horse are really not the same, are they? I don’t eat much meat either...but I’m not seeing your point. Do you think this guy was killing his horse so he could consume it?
Look at all his posts in this thread. He has no problem with the horse being beaten to death.
I am completely saying that.
And yes, a rat and a horse are both animals that are fellow mammals. Are cattle not kind and loving, as well? I grew up on a farm and had horses, dogs, cats, rabbits, chickens, and more, so I know about taking care of animals but I also know animals are property that can be killed when needed.
The guy killed his horse and let his dogs eat it. Read the dang story. Or are you against animals eating animals, meaning you hate the entire animal kingdom for what has always been?
Are you really saying that because the horse was his it was OK for him to beat it with a slege hammer? “
That’s how they slaughtered large animals for years.Then they came up with an air gun that fired a steel bolt into the brain. Probably because some of the workers couldn’t manage a sledge hammer blow with enough force to kill the animal instantly.
At one time, this guy was probably proficient, but he looks old.
If you want to torture a large animal, striking it in the head with a sledge hammer would not be a good choice.
I’m betting the horse was injured and he was trying to, humanely, put it down.
As I have not examined the animal, I have very little in the way of facts, and I don’t know if the law/SPCA/? is trying to make an example of him, I will hold my condemnation and DEATH sentance of the man until I do.
Some of you people are disgusting.
