altivo: My mare Contessa (nosy tess)
[personal profile] altivo
Chicago Tribune reports that horse slaughter in Illinois ceased yesterday, perhaps permanently. While I think the "permanently" is overly optimistic, this still is good news and a good sign that the tide is changing.

As I told [livejournal.com profile] doc_moreau, my words to the 55 people who may lose their jobs at Cavel International are just this: "Tough, man. Find something else to do, something respectable." I don't find those people to have been doing anything more acceptable than dealing drugs would be, or strong-arming business people for protection money.

Not necessarily. Making a Whopper takes more finesse and less heavy equipment.
