you're right. the last law passed to ban slaughter here only made the trip that much longer, and more hellish, for the horses. i understand the intent-but we live in a real world, not a utopian one. i doubt one horse was saved by the legislation they passed. it would have been better to regulate what was happening. yeah, pols enjoy being able to say i helped horses, but it's not really the case at all.
