Real Sports With Bryant Gumbel on HBO

Question

Tonight they have a piece investigating the slaughter of thoroughbreds for profit.&#xD;&#xA; &#xD;&#xA;They are shipped abroad for slaughter where there is little or no regulation &amp; inhumane treatment is in the normal course of doing business. This very well may be a tough piece to watch for those of us who love the sport. I suppose it&#x27;s one of those unspoken secrets of the industry.

They need to muzzle Bryand Gumbel.  I thought the Government had banned this.

i saw the story, turned away when they were showing them at the slaughter house

how do you think your dinner is made ? cows and other animals are treated just a disgustingly (im a vegan and thats why i became one)

i cant see how a trainer can care for a horse and then send it away to that fate after supposedly caring for the animal and having the animal care about you.
