No ma'am
They got him on camera. Walking through the barn and shining a flashlight in to every stall looking at the horses. He tripped the laser alarm and the alarm scared him off.
So I bet there is two or three of them waiting in the nearby pasture and they send in one guy to pick a horse and bring it to them in the pasture.... These people are completely off their rockers!!!  |

Location: North Central Iowa Land of white frozen grass | They are not sicko. They are doing this for profit. This is what happens when we let all these immigrants in. This only going to get worse untill we shut off all of these people from coming into our country. |

By profit do you mean selling the meat to migrant families?
Won't it make the people who eat it sick?
I would imagine show horses have lots of supplements and medications to keep them healthy and sound. Much like barrel horses... I can't imagine people eating the meat and everyone being ok.... |

So are you saying that they are eating these horses? I didnt read this about the horses being killed, but are they taking the meat are just killing for the fun of it? |

I believe the first time it happened, it was determined that the horse was slaughtered for the meat. Apparently it is sought after. Ew. |

That's what I read too on the original story. The horse was killed, skinned, and basically carved up for its meat. I think that's why the guy they caught on camera was looking into the stalls trying to find the biggest horses....
I wonder if they're selling it black market in the U.S. or taking it south to Brazil or Mexico....
Either way, this needs to be addressed and quickly... It's still sick and gruesome to kill a horse that is perfectly healthy and very sound and sane for it's meat... |

| If you research about 4.7 million horses are consumed per year.
Countries like, S. Korea, Poland, Columbia, France, Australia, Indonesia, the Philippines, Uruguay, Mexico, Argentina, Kazakhstan, Russia, Kyrgystan, Brazil, and many more consume horse meat.
Slovenia even has a fast food chain that sells a horse burger, called Hot Horse...

In Sweden horse general goes for about 16$ per lb!!! More than prime rib in the states! |

I've done research... Lots when i'm bored. I'm not completely against it and I'm not completely for it. I'm neutral I would think...
I understand they are consumed but I guarantee they aren't show horses.... Or medicated horses... Or horses that are healthy and sound and rideable... If they are then I have a problem with that...
I mean, I'm sure there are standards... Just like with cattle the USDA has Beef Standards, living condition standards, and processing standards.... Given some of those are completely over looked and not every cow that is butchered is killed humanely I'm sure but at least there are standards to hold them accountable instead of people gruesomely butchering them in fields for the black market....  |

I totally agree and don't you remember last year someone from BHW posting her pet goats had been stolen for food and a lady down the road from her lost 15 goats. Goats are a favorite food for illegals crossing our border. Easily caught and easily butchered.

Makes sense. I was wondering how anyone could eat it and not have any remorse, much less care about the meds and supplements.... Now that you say that it makes sense.... |

Location: Florida.. | Its their culture and the way they were raised. It has gotten worse since illegals have flooded here..I will say I dont think they sell for 20 bucks a lb out of the trucks siince it goes to poor areas as well from what I understand.. i had a man I thought was legal living in my barn apt in wellington (Palm beach) where there are plentiful of illegals.. I dint check papers because he did side work for a trainer down the road. he did stalls, fed, turned out and did a good job . But there was a ration of car burgeries in my area and I noticed he was coming home at 3 am or 4 am . One day I peeked on apt and sure enough it was covered with radios, and so on... they appear nice.. WRONG..its how they are raised..sorry offtopic |
