Excuse me, but this bill is about not using our tax dollars to promote this slaughter. I ain't no big gummint nothing!

How are your tax dollars being used to promote the slaughter exactly?

Then who is going to pay for their keep, over grazing, diseases, etc? Isn't the sale of these mustangs based upon population count and only after three attempts to have the animal adopted has failed?...

OK - I'll suggest that the slaughter of horses not be promoted with tax dollars - as soon as other animal slaughter is no longer taxpayer promoted (port, beef, chicken, etc.).

Where are these animal rights supporters when it comes down to the need to either sell the animals to slaughter or to adopt them? Why don't they speak with their money and adopt the animals? I would rather these "surplus" horses be slaughtered for food than to just kill them - which is the other alternative if no-one adopts them.
