I frankly dont see much difference between slaughtering horses to eat and slaughtering pigs or cows.

The difference is more evident if you put a saddle on a pig or cow and try to ride it somewhere.

I never have used a saddle.:-)

Lots of people keep those weird little pot-bellied pigs as pets, I'll bet they get worked up about hogs being slaughtered. A young hog, by the way, is a very friendly and inquisitive critter.

Well said, Willie. These morons do not comprehend the distinction between livestock raised for consumption and those raised for domestic utility. They might if we legalize slavery once again, without any race restrictions, and promoted cannibalism to ameliorate overpopulation. After all, it's the "practicality" of the idea that is so important to so many people.
