[RC] horse slaughter vs vegitarianism - Karen Everhart
Julie wrote: When I hear about "public outcry" against the human
consumption of horse meat, I have to wonder if those decrying the practice
are vegitarians or vegans.
My reply - No, vegetarianism has nothing to do with the public outcry AND
most are not opposed to others eating horses, but are opposed to 1- uncontrolled
breeding, 2-irresponsible ownership AND 3- inhumace transport and housing
and the actual process used to "stun" the horse prior to it being bled
out.

nobody seems to be screaming about that?
My reply - If we began slaughtering dogs to send to Asia, rather than
euthanising them (also due to uncontrolled breeding and irresponsible ownership)
then there WOULD be a huge outcry
