Default Belmont- The graveyard of champions

Posted By: Jeff Lichtman

"but when I watch a race and see the jockey whip the horse, I just see the horse run faster. I don't see him/her get hurt."

If that sentence doesn't crystalize this debate I don't know what would.

Edited to add: guys, with all respect, your claims that the horses love to run, love the glory, etc. sounds frighteningly similar to the rationale provided by Scott Elkins as to why cock fighting is ok.
