http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopslaughter/ Horses are such beautiful and intelligent creatures. They carried our soliders threw battles and they carried our wounded to saftey. These animals become our best friends and we share a bond with them. We need to help these horses, wild and domesticated, because everyone deserves a second chance. Some of these horses have never been loved and have never had a real home, some have been abused and some are ex- race horses, some have had the best care in the world and others were treated like garbage. But that does not mean they need to be slaughtered. Americas horses only get slaughtered to feed someone in a forgein country a fancy meal. Slaughter is inhumane and disgusting and needs to be stopped. ***Approximately 60,948 horses have died in slaughter houses during 2004*** Wed, 5 Jan 2005 01:0:08 CST en-us 3 http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopslaughter/#sig1333447 Wed, 31 Dec 1969 18:0:00 CST This is a very interesting and useful petition.

Sorry me no english... http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopslaughter/#sig1284863 Wed, 31 Dec 1969 18:0:00 CST Slaughter is absolutly horrible. The sad part is, as long as the a**hole Bush is in office, The American Horse Slaughter Prevention act will never be signed!-sigh-[sry to republicans, just speaking the truth] I agree with all the people on this page. Slaughtering is completly cruel, for horses and for all other animals. Some examples are fast food places [who are completly cruel to their chickens] IAMS [dont feed your dog that brand of dog food PLEASE!!!!!] and Premarin. I dispise slaughter. I hate to think that most ex-racehorses are slaughtered, when they could be magnificant riding animals [horse racing is cruel too, dont support it!]. Oh well, i wish there was more i could do, but no one ever seems to care about horses [even though they do so much for us!] *Stop horse slaughter, horse racing/steeplechasing, and Premarin!* Horses have always been there for us, now it's our turn to be there for them! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopslaughter/#sig1277709 Wed, 31 Dec 1969 18:0:00 CST horses are really beautiful and i just love them, although i've never been near one before. how could those people seeing them everday, kill them? the only way is that their heart is DEAD. http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopslaughter/#sig1015833 Wed, 31 Dec 1969 18:0:00 CST Do you all like horses???

How cruel can people get. Horses have done so much for us and do not deserve to die this way!!!! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopslaughter/#sig810333 Wed, 31 Dec 1969 18:0:00 CST You know, they even allow mustangs to be slaughtered just cause they think they use up the cows grazing land. If we hadn't overbred these horses, we would have to problems. And the prez. probably thinks it doesn't matter as much as stuff like the Iraqi War. If he can't take care of all the country's problems equally, he isn't fit to be president of this country. He clearly is not fufilling his duty to the American symbol of FREEDOM. The horses deserve WAY better! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopslaughter/#sig793891 Wed, 31 Dec 1969 18:0:00 CST This MUST be stopped and congress won't listen and unless we all speak out!! http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/stopslaughter/#sig764125 Wed, 31 Dec 1969 18:0:00 CST I live in the UK. My horse was called Cheyanne, I am 17 and have been horse riding since I was 8. I had to sell my horse due to unfortunate circumstance but I sold her to my stables and still ride her and see her alot. Shes treated well, shes a thouroght bred x irish draft i would hate to think she is bein treated badly.
