NYC to Consider Horse-Drawn Carriage Ban
NEW YORK (AP) - The horse-drawn carriages that clip clop around Central Park could be banned under City Council legislation to be introduced at the urging of animal advocates who say the horses are treated inhumanely.

1. free all horses from their human masters now!
when my grandpa used to wax nostalgic about the good old days (early 1900's) in their former small town home, grandma would remind him that the streets were covered with horse dookie and it wasn't really all that great.

2. Ironically, if successful the horses will probably be slaughtered in Mexico.
