The various Federal agencies, under this Admin, have decided to do everything possible to take joy out of our lives. It is lovely watching these wild horses grazing, running and enjoying their freedom on the land. You can catch a glimpse of what the West was like when you see them roaming free. They really do no harm. It just looks like another way for this Government to squeeze more money for themselves by selling the horses. And if not sold, just to destroy these beautiful creatures. This is disgusting! Give these horses a permit to be on the land.....NOW!

‘The representative went on to say the last thing anyone at the Forest Service wants is for the horse to end up in a situations where they could be killed’

Yeah, right. If they aren’t sold, they will be put down. This from the Leftists that claim they are the only compassionate ones, the ones who care about the animals and the little guy. What phonies!

[Farmer Dean]

Typical meddling liberals/communists.They just have to f__k with everything.

Obviously, their flatulence contributes to global warming..

[stboz]

Mmmm...cheval, it’s what’s for dinner.

[elcid1970]

Don’t they just ship ‘em to Mexico where they get turned into Alpo For Seniors?

;^)

[Noumenon]

They just have to f__k with everything.

They just have to kill everything. Monsters.

These horses are part of an ancient and honorable peoples with deep links to the land from time immemorial, just like the Palestinians. / sarc
Someone with a twisted enough sense of humor can make a similar ruckus over these horses as the “Palestinians” do.
Complete with signs, slogans, “two park solution” etc.

[Fightin Whitey]

Federal government is obsessed with control.

What they can’t control they will lock up or kill.

"..Don’t they just ship ‘em to Mexico where they get turned into Alpo For Seniors?.."

The horses? Or the Forest Service Nazis? d;^)

The Tonto National Forest abuts the Fort McDowell Indian Reservation. These horses roam both areas. The Feds are going to only round up from the Forest, but figure they will eventually get all the horses as they will all be on Forest land at some point. They are beautiful to see.....this is heartbreaking.

Now if they were lions, it would be different.

[originalbuckeye]

Sadly. I guess some animals are more equal than others.

I know of a Dentist who’s currently looking for something to do with his spare time...

[Political Junkie Too]

They use turtles, lizards, and birds to claim natural habitats to stop industry, but these horses have to go? Why aren't they just as deserving as turtles, lizards, and birds?

Tastes like...ummm...not chicken.

[Darksheare]

Yes, that will eventually happen.
And since they don’t belong to anyone, the quest to bill someone for it will be pushed onto the taxpayers.

This Admin does anything it wants to do. Obama owns the Justice Dept, so they all know that NO ONE will be held accountable for any criminality. Remember in days gone by, the Republicans were always held to a higher standard and needed to prove the Justice Dept would act independently of the Executive? These horses are just collateral damage in the War on the American People by their Government.

[Zeppo]

Let me see if I understand correctly the Feds’ view of the law:

Undocumented livestock - bad.

Undocumented immigrants - good.

Oh, wait, I guess that the term used by the Feds was “unauthorized livestock”. Now I understand.

So if we just call them “unauthorized immigrants”, then the Feds will suddenly see the error of their ways and they will start following the law?

(Rhetorical question only - of course none of the government criminals under the control of the Obama regime has any intent to act lawfully.)

Dunno bout any of this, buy my dog Rover doesn’t like his dog food ever since they stopped putting wild Mustangs in it.
