Thanks, somebody gets it.

It's pathetic that the media has couched this as a humanitarian effort tho save the poor horse, when in reality it was a money grab by its' owners who stand to make bazillions on "Sons of Barbaros'" for decades to come. For those crying over the horse, get a life.

PS - I love animals as much or more than anyone else.
