Yes, the site is pro-PETA, so you might want to look around and figure things out before you start spouting off how bad you think they are and otherwise being generally obnoxious. And you don’t have to see a movie (made by or endorsed by PETA or not) to know that there is rampant abuse of horses in racing and elsewhere. All it takes is the most casual of glances in to find examples and tragic stories. So you say you’re a “good” one in the industry. Good for you.

There
are monsters of all kinds in that business, no matter what YOU say. You have to look neither long nor hard to find an abundance of examples of the cruelty.

Sure, there may be some. There are also many, many videos (and God knows other forms of documentation) that prove it’s accurate and true. Sadly.


At best, there are two sides to the industry, one good and one bad. Unfortunately it doesn't take a whole lot of digging to find the bad, so post all the links and blogs you want. But the truth of the matter is no matter what you post here, it's not going to take a whole lot of looking to find the cruel and heinous and tragic side of the industry either.
