-"On average, 24 horses die each week at racetracks across America. "
-this is really a shame, dumping them by the side of the road or in landfills?

"Horses could soon be butchered in the U.S. for human consumption after Congress quietly lifted a 5-year-old ban on funding horse meat inspections, and activists say slaughterhouses could be up and running in as little as a month."

“The Stampede's claims to have made the race safer have been proven false,” society spokesman Peter Fricker said at the time.“It is totally unacceptable to continue this event when horse after horse is dying just to entertain a crowd.”

-enough is enough!-the "Calgary Stampede" is barbaric!

-why were the bastards shooting horses or anything else? not for food that's for sure! and if just sport it's even sicker!

-just maybe,maybe it's time to stop these races!!
