Did you know that there is a “1971 Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act?” Probably not, but then when one considers the volume of legislation created just at the federal level — legislation that remains in force, the normal reaction would be one of astonishment, of being utterly overwhelmed, of one’s eyes just glazing over. No wonder congressmen and senators have no idea what they’re voting on much of the time.
Anyway, apparently we have a crisis of excess horses and burrows running wild in western states. Enter the Bureau of Land Management and a dispute they have with the Humane Society of the United States.
Here’s the crisis in a nutshell for your consideration.
Once again you post c**p that has nothing to do with why people joined your group. Now all your crazy followers want to euthanize the president and his family? Their next sentence will be calling someone else unamerican. As soon as you click the article, 5 more pop up and give you the real facts. Maybe we should slow down and take a breath before spouting hate and lies.

Looks like they aren’t doing it. Thank goodness!
How about euthanize some of our population instead. We do more damage.
speedy death vs long slow death both suck.
There are plenty of people who would love to adopt those horses.
The BLM could work in conjunction with the Humane Society to sell them.
$300 for stallions, $400 for mares, discounts on purchases of 10 or more…
Put the money earned from their sale toward the national debt…
Even if they sell them at a flat $300 per, at 45,000 that’s 13.5 MILLION DOLLARS.
Bet it would cost more to humanely euthanize them.
I like my PETA group = People Eating Tasty Animals…. we are just amazed that none of the animal rights groups are banging the gong about this… or that Party Chairman Obama isn’t blaming Trump and Gun Owners for it yet.
Tks.i had read they were not going to hurt them.
But sometimes the hard decision makes for a better future for the land and the animals and stop the repercussions and damages by just doing nothing.
Leave those horsez alone.! What else is this government tryn 2 do ? They make me sik !
