We MUST be a voice for the voiceless. I WILL NOT be silent and allow another horse to get abused or slaughtered and I WILL NOT stand by and do nothing and allow a dog to be kicked or whipped, cat to be drowned, puppies and kittens to be stuffed in plastic bags and left to suffocate to death or eaten. I REFUSE TO BE SILENT! We must NOT keep turning a blind eye to this proportionately astronomical epidemic. If we do we will be just as bad as the abusers not by abusing but by looking away. In turn by looking away the problem will only get worse and worse. It is estimated that only about 1% of these crimes are ever reported (if at all).
