HELLO! Wake up and smell the coffee! I have news for you: HORSES ARE GOOD FOOD, their meat is tasty. Horses are like pigs, beef, sheep or chicken except we can ride them and make money out of them. That's the sole reason people are nice to them. Do you live under a rock ? Fill your stomach with a dish of horsemeat then shop for horse leather shoes and accessories. Stop wasting energy on this non-issue.
