Jeff LichtmanTodd, the only people that ever attack me out here are the bottom feeding attorneys. Sorry, but it's true. I have no idea where you are or what you are but I am fairly certain that the shoe fits. And I think you know it's true.
I suspect you might also be against animals being whipped and abused all in the name of sport; however, I also know that you are a bitter, angry guy (like most attorneys) and feel the need to attack anything I say. It's ok; it does amuse me. I get it a lot.
As for my comment, horseracing has gotten a pass from most of society for many years due to, as Daniel pointed out, its perception as the Sport of Kings. If the people in the winner's circle looked more like those at cockfights, I suspect the perception would change. And if the people in the horse racing industry cared so much about the animals, why wouldn't they at the very least all agree to give up the whip? Would it really take away from your enjoyment of watching the races?
