Proposed law affecting horse transportation
« on: November 30, 2007, 07:31:42 AM »
I just saw on the USCRA.com ropers forum a topic titled, "you gotta call".  It is regarding a
proposal about transporting horses that could have far reaching effects on us all.  I didn't how
to post it here, but please, go there a read it.  thanks

You can also read the entire write up on AQHA website.  AQHA sent out a news letter to members requesting that they please call their state officials and oppose this bill.

BEST READ THIS ARTICLE!!!  OKAY FOLKS - here is the scary take on this!!!  Whose definition of "Sore" and who is going to determine???? Someone who probably has NO training in equine medicine!!!  What will they do with the horse once they CONFISCATE, SEIZE, ETC...  We better make sure we in MASSES speak out on this - it is NOT just a don't ship slaughter horses out of the country bill.  There is VERY SPECIFIC language about seizing horses at a horse show, exhibition, etc..  Here is your chance to make sure we as horse owners retain our rights regarding our horses.

THIS SHOULD SCARE US ALL TO DEATH!!!!!!   >BLOWUP<

O thats not even right. THey shouldnt even allow someone to propose this bill. Its those stupid "animal rights" people who keep saying "all animals everywhere in the world are being abused" what if people took those precautions with people? "Oh no! theres a child with a paper cut on his finger in that car! Call the police! Those are bad parents" is the same as "Oh no! theres a horse with a scrape on his whither in that trailer! Call the police! THose are bad horse owners!"

WOW what kind of BS is that.   My 2yo always looks sore when he first gets off the trailer if he has been in it for more then 2hrs but is okay inless then 30 minutes.  so what would happen to him if this jackedup bill is passed.
