HORSE MEAT FOR HUMAN CONSUMPTION?

DEAR MR. PRESIDENT;

I READ THE ARTICLE AND I THOUGHT OF THE EMAILS I HAVE RECEIVED OVER THE YEARS ABOUT THIS OR THAT FAST FOOD PLACE USING HORSE MEAT AND WHEN YOU CHECKED WITH SNOPES YOU FOUND OUT THEY WERE ALL HOAXES.  IT'S UNBELIEVABLE THAT THIS COULD BE TRUE BUT IT IS AND IS SHAMEFUL.  I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THERE HAD EVEN BEEN A SLAUGHTERHOUSE FOR THEM THAT WAS CLOSED IN 2007.  I DIDN'T BELIEVE THAT DOGS WERE KILLED AND EATEN IN OTHER COUNTRIES UNTIL I SAW PICTURES OF IT AND THAT WAS SICK.  NOW WE'RE TALKING ABOUT KILLING AND EATING THESE BEAUTIFUL ANIMALS AND IN OUR OWN COUNTRY EVEN.  THAT IS SICKER.  BEAUTIFUL STORIES OF HORSES HELPING OTHER ANIMALS AND THE ONE ABOUT THE HORSE WITH A BELL HELPING A HORSE THAT IS BLIND TO LIVE AS NORMAL A LIFE AS POSSIBLE.

I KNOW PROPONENTS TALK ABOUT THE HORSES THAT ARE SENT TO OTHER COUNTRIS TO BE KILLED AND EATEN.  THAT RESTS ON THEIR CONSCIENCE AND ONLY GOD CAN HELP THEM WITH THAT.  IF PEOPLE DON'T WANT THE HORSES THEN THEY SHOULDN'T BUY THEM.  IT'S THE SAME AS FOR DOGS AND CATS BUT WE DON'T SLAUGHTER THEM TO EAT THEM BECAUSE THAT IS UNCONSCIENABLE.  THE SAME THING IS TRUE ABOUT STARTING THIS AGAIN.  IF IT HAS COME TO THIS POINT IN THIS COUNTRY IT IS A SAD COMMENTARY AS TO WHAT THIS COUNTRY HAS BECOME.  ALSO TO TALK ABOUT THERE BEING JOBS FOR PEOPLE IN THIS COUNTRY AND RUN BY THIS COUNTRY THAT IS A TYPICAL CATCH PHRASE FOR POLITICIANS. 

MAY GOD HELP YOU TO MAKE THE RIGHT CHOICE HERE.  I'M SURE HE DOESN'T WANT THE FIGHTING AND POSSIBLE VIOLENCE STARTING THIS AGAIN MAY CAUSE,  BUT IT IS ONE OF HIS NOBLER CREATURES. 

GOD BLESS AND BE WITH YOU ALWAYS  

BARRY DERR
