Please...No more bets, no more races, no more kills, no more whipping, drugging, doping...
A plea, on Preakess Day…
To those who wager on horseracing, we implore you to reconsider. And
ultimately, you hold all the cards – no more bets, no more races; no
more races, no more kills. And – no more abusing unformed bodies; no
more extreme, relentless confinement; no more whipping; no more
drugging and doping; no more buying and selling and trading and
dumping. No more auctions, no more kill-buyers, no more transport
trucks, no more abattoirs. No more maiming, destroying; pain,
suffering. No more.
In a landscape that abounds with other gambling options – casinos, lotteries, real sports involving autonomous human beings – hasn’t the time at long last arrived to let the racing horse be? You, the bettor, have within the capacity for mercy. We ask only that you exercise it. Please. For the horses.
