Dead horse best horse. Have you tried their meat? Delicious! I don't get why we waste it for entertainment.

Luckily in my country there are people who regularly harass entertainment stables until they get closed and horses get sold to butcher.

Horse meat is incredible. The horse breeders where i live actually sell the meat rather than burning it. Win-win. They get to breed incredible horses, we get food.

Well, they're a pretty great working animal. And they run on grass and water. I suspect they'll become much more important outside of entertainment in the near future, even in "rich" countries.

Horses are amazing eco-friendly solution to most small-scale labor and transportation needs. However, they are also very easy to force out. All you need to do is pay a bunch of dumb animal-protection nuts to constantly protest their use. This is how electric cars operate in my country - by sending horses from work to meat processing.

Horse meat is illegal in the US.
