Torture on city streets

Letter as published on NY Daily News

Tuckahoe, N.Y.: It’s amazing how the animal exploiters spout nonsense and pray the public buys it. Sure, Voicer Lisa Kapsner, it’s healthy for an animal’s joints to pull 1,000 pounds of weight on concrete with exhaust fumes in his face, a metal brace in his mouth and a whip over his head. Yes, Libby Colon, the horses were clean when you had your preannounced visit. Didja happen to visit the auction and the slaughterhouse, where most of them go when they’re no longer profitable? Nah, why bother yourself with those horrific images? Keep trying, folks. Those with a vested interest will believe it all, but the rest of us know the truth.
