yet at the same time these leftist cucks desperately defend halal slaughter

 

[cookie_dough]

its natural for blood to "leak" if you will into lungs/windpipe while doing intense exercise for humans and horses. Have you ever run so much you can taste blood? that sounds a bit weird but it happens

 

[Flop21]

We already do far worse to animals, so don't see how this is that wrong.

I would like whipping to stop, if everyone wasn't allowed to do it, it'd be fair.

The same animal rights groups that want to reform/ban horse racing (e.g. RSPCA, PETA) oppose kosher/halal slaughter as well.

nah mate
We just oppose halal because of the animals, not because we don't like muslims/are paranoid about where the certification funds go.

wtf

No. lol

that's stupid
That's like saying "people die all the time from much worse murders, so it's okay for me to inject them with propofol and potassium against their will"

The whole point is to stop the worse treatment too
But there are steps.
Jesus.

I kind of meant in a way, we kill animals all the time to eat them. So it's not like their lives are that important. Sounds bad, but it's just how life is. They are not even on a humans level one bit. So with that in mind, I don't see how racing them is that bad.

What I do think is bad, is whipping the horses. They should be carefully trained to run fast on command, instead of just blindly smacking the horse and freaking it out.

Well many of the ones who don't make the cut or get injured are killed, so I don't see how whipping them is bad.

If they were not killed after being injured, they'd live a life of suffering and pain. But I see what you mean, if they weren't racing they wouldn't be injured.

no but most of the self-righteous dickheads crying about melbourne cup DON'T oppose halal

 

[SylviaB]

these arent animal rights groups self-righteously tweeting about the melbourne cup. theyre left wing cunts who scream islamophobia at even the most moderate and reasonable criticisms of islam
