Eating horse meat – so what?

Just like to keep things precise. People often confuse morals and ethics.

. . . while others confuse what’s convenient to believe with what they actually know (imprecision at its worst).

…and belief belongs to religion while thinking belongs to — well — just about everything else

[quote=”VictoriaLST”]I think it has something to do with developing a “personal relationship” with a horse. Raising, training, riding. We just don’t have that kind of relationship with cows.[/quote]

Don´t say that. I rose a 100 head of cattle some years ago, I took very good care of them for over a year and went out on horseback twice per week to count them (my wild cowboy years – yeah !! ). It broke my heart when I took them to auction …….
Some people eat horses, others eat cats or dogs, others eat crocodiles, others eat armadillos and iguanas.
I think dead is dead, so what is the problem ?

People should better look what is in all the other stuff they eat, all the processed food, preserves, colors, artificial taste, GMO, pesticide, herbicide etc., they should read the labels, and investigate what is not on the labels. I think, horse meet is not that bad after all.

It’s not the meat, it’s the end justifying the means.

In my opinion, there is no justification whatsoever for people to kill and eat animals and to mistreat animals, no matter what kind or species.

That’s what I mean with my post.
