So your position is that we should eat horses because they can’t sit on your lap, and we don’t need them to pull things. There are alot of animals that can sit in your lap, but you probably wouldn’t want to have them do it, so that view won’t work. My horses are as dear to me as your cat or dog, but you won’t eat your pet. Well, I have Mark Levin on my side in this, so I know I’m on the right track. You’ve got Obama. What’s that say?
that's noy my point at all, I merely suggest that some animals are better suited to be "pets" then are others. I love horses too, grew up on uncles and grandparents farms. We adopted animals all the time, named the chickens, named the pigs and ate them both. The horses were, at that time, retired and put out to pasture, they did pretty much as they pleased. The cows, on the other hand, (just as gentle and noble as the horses) were sold to slaughter. What's the difference???? The cattle were raised to give milk and eventually beef. The horses were raised to provide pulling power and eventually left to die alone and underappreciated...so sad. Do you realive how much meat is represented by 1,000,000 horses that weigh 1300 lbs each?????what about the starving masses, what about the children ??? I agree that horses can become kind of a pet, but they are not the same as cats and dogs and parakeets and goldfish. There are "pets" and there are animals that one becomes fond of.....besides, horses taste better than cats!
