Help stop the Kentucky Derby and Horse Racing!

Make the Kentucky Derby and Horse racing Illegal

Target:

please help me stop the Kentucky Derby and Horse racing

Sponsored by:

I am sure everyone has heard what happened to that poor horse that was killed because the horse broke its legs. I believe that it is cruel to treat horses that way and make them suffer just for entertainment. It is not worth it. I love horses and I believe that all horses are really meant to run free. It is bad enough that we catch them and break their spirit now it has turned into a cruel sport to beat them and kill them if they lose or if they hurt themselves. I can't believe that people actually goes to these things to watch how cruel people are to these horses and bet money on them. How would you like it if you were beat and forced into racing then hurt yourself and was put down. Please have a heart and help me stop this. there is a lot more i can say but would not be appropriate so I will just leave it as this and if you need more information on the derby google it.
Thank you,
Amanda Pilkington

Please stop causing harm to horses that are not capable of telling that you are hurting them, but can only look at you and hope that you know what they are thinking. Please stop the races and injections.

Even if there were many reforms in the industry, there would still be abuses, unscrupulous owners, trainers and so forth. So, for the true well-being of horse, stop the races.

IF the owners can't wait till these beautiful Racing Horses are old enough to race & all they want is the money & the Glory then I say make it illegal .. no horse deserves to be treated as slaves .. giving there all even there life if thats what there owners want to be the BEST... its not right.. the horse should be thought of first not anything else..
