Hm, that's interesting. I know there has been a lot of push to get this bill passed over the years, but it's never happened. I'm on the fence about slaughter-I believe there that some good does come out of it, but I believe there should be a humane slaughter bill passed that protects the way an animal is slaughtered. However, supposedly the FDA demands that the horse is strung up by one leg fully concsious, and it gets "bled"-it's throat gets cut, and supposedly it has to be alive during this process or they can't sell the meat.
