Subject: Fw: HorseKillers.com : spread this alert everywhere
Dear Friends,
As you know, Cavel International, the Belgian horse slaughterer is rapidly
rebuilding its plant in DeKalb, IL in hopes that SB 1921, the bill to ban horse
slaughter in Illinois, does not pass. Therefore, we have to do all we can
now to ensure that this humane bill DOES pass!
Please visit www.HorseKillers.com,
and sign the petition to ban horse slaughter in Illinois. It's also
imperative to forward the petition on to anyone you know who'd be willing to
sign it, and then ask that they forward it on as well. We need as many
signatures as we can, so we can prove to Illinois legislators and the rest of
the country that Illinois citizens do not want horse murder here!
While on the website, you can also view actual, chilling footage of unfortunate
horses in slaughterhouses being shot with the captive bolt gun as well as the
bloody slaughter itself. These images are very difficult to watch, but
they're real and typical of any horse slaughter plant. These video clips
also show the gross inadequacies of the captive bolt method and clearly refute
the horse slaughter proponents' claims of the bolt being rapid, efficient and
most importantly, pain-free! This footage was kindly provided by the
Humane Farming Association.
You may also be surprised to find out who supports horse slaughter, and SHARK
urges you to let them know what you think about that.
With your help, we can prevent Illinois from becoming the Horse Killing Capitol
of the United States.
