Reblogged this on Armory of the Revolution.
The Horse Fund, a publication I read daily, posted this Quote Of The Day……
Quote of the Day
by The Horse Fund
“In general treatments designed to repair a horse’s injuries and to alleviate [his] suffering are now often used to get the animal out onto the track to compete — to force the animal, like some punch drunk fighter, to make just one more round.” — Greg Ferraro SOURCE TDN Magazine; May 2, 2013; p. 6 […]
The quote by vet Greg Ferraro is known by this vile business and these treatments are also used to mask chronic conditions which often lead to catastrophic breakdowns as per reputable vet studies.
This is all going on, knowingly and willingly, while they deliberately hide and keep secret the very doping/vet records that would clearly show this pattern.
This business shows time and time again that filling races to increase wagering profits are their sole concern not their profit slaves whom they exploit, beat, dope, dump, maim and/or kill.
The day of reckoning has finally arrived for this vile business and the general public is finally understanding what we have been trying to tell people for so long now, but we were up against the powerful and well-funded horse racing business.
This antiquated business model that facilitates the widespread suffering and killing of racehorses has got to go!
It’s run its course, it has no place in the 21st century and no amount of “modernization” will change their fundamental business model of killing racehorses and the apologists continually admit to this themselves.
We should not nor can not accept a business that kills racehorses for profit.
We need to all pull together to STOP their funding and shut it down.
So disgusting and to think it is still happening everyday in the racing world!
