Kentucky gives bailout to horse abusers

Outrage of the day: Did you know that the state of Kentucky gives taxpayer money to horse shows whose participants abuse horses?

Not all horse shows condone cruelty to animals, but there are some that permit it outright. And as Kentucky taxpayers, we're being forced to pay zillionaires to maim horses' hooves before showing them off to other zillionaires.

These sadistic practices are against federal law, but taxpayers in the Bluegrass State are being required to finance them anyway.

And it's all because of a cabal of extremely wealthy horse owners who demand ongoing taxpayer bailouts but won't change their cruel practices.
