Since a ban to transport live horses from the U.S. to Canada and Mexico for the purpose of slaughter is still pending, our horses are moving rapidly over the borders. It is imperative for U.S. citizens to lobby for enactment of the AHSPA, and support efforts in border states to stop transport of slaughter-bound equines.Be it an American or Mexican horse, what matters is the sadistic method used to slaughter these intelligent animals. A brief description of the horse slaughter: "The American mare swung her head frantically when the door to the kill box shut, trapping her inside. A worker jabbed her in the back with a small knife seven, eight, nine times. Eyes wild, she lowered her head and raised it as the blade punctured her body around the withers, again and again. At the 10th jab, she fell to the floor of this Mexican slaughterhouse, bloodied and paralyzed but not yet dead. She would lie there two minutes before being hoisted upside down from a chained rear leg so her throat could be slit and she could bleed to death. The mare was one of nearly 30,000 American horses shipped to Mexican processing plants this year" Learn more>>> http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/front/5175642.htmlA dantean scenario of violence and dirt, where laws are not enforced and authorities are totally absent. Images that unmistakably reveal the dimensions of the problem at San Bernabe are found at http://www.apasdemexico.org/San%20Bernabe.htm- then click on "aquí" at the bottom of the page to see the photos. After a lifetime of forced labor, horses are discarded and sold at the Mercado de San Barnabe where they are slaughtered in the most barbarian manner. This is where American horses are being sent to be killed."
