Politics And Horses

  • Saturday, February 8, 2014

I find the attitude of our elected senators and representatives toward the cruel and unusual treatment of horses in this state by turning a blind eye to this cruel mistreatment to boggle the mind. By being silent you show the people of Tennessee that you are giving approval to this terrible practice.

Why don't you sit down with your children and grandchildren and explain what is being done to these beautiful animals and why you don't come to their defense.

This is politics at its very worst - votes and money for your campaigns at a terrible cost of pain and suffering by these animals.
