| US Horse Meat is Unsafe for Human Consumption
A list of celebrity names against horse slaughter didn't impress me. Just because they are celebrities doesn't mean that they know anything about horses and their opinion shouldn't be given more weight than those who actually own horses and have spent a lifetime doing it. I have learned a lot about this issue and it has been interesting, but despite all the rhetoric from both sides, it sure looks like the horse breeders who are pro slaughter and that have made horses their very lives are in the right on this one, whether they are the majority or not. I like the analogy about the architect. There are also people in this country that don't choose to eat pork, but they aren't campaigning agaist others eating pigs, and it should be likewise with people that don't eat horse. If you don't want to process a horse, don't, but don't prevent other people from doing it especially when so much good is gained from it, like better vet practices.
Making waves about on-ship smoking
It's a pity people don't have anything other than this to complain about! Had these people been using very abusive language and behaving in a disorderly fashion under the influence of excess alcohol, I imagine Mr Sankey would not have spent time writing this letter - after all, these things are far far less anti-social and dangerous than smoking tobacco outdoors on deck! Wherever smokers go now, they are penalised, insulted, complained about, made to feel uncomfortable and unwelcome. Tobacco smokers are being treated worse than any other minority group - hardened criminals included!! Now that Mr Sankey and his pals are in charge - what next?!! .
