That's a kill buyer's dream situation, and you can't tell me he didn't have a clue that those horses were in serious danger of being sold to slaughter. What he did was not illegal - but certainly inhumane and morally wrong IMO. Its so sad....

I respect Mr. Paragallo for responding as he did, but wasn't sure how to take it after reading several times...but your "if it's too good to be true" take on the "free" horses is how I feel as well.
