    I can't believe people haven't stopped this despicable torture done to these beautiful horses; I had NO idea there were people in 2014 capable of the demonic & demented burning and pressure shoeing of TN Walking Horses. This must be stopped immediately; it's sickening & degrading to anyone who participates in any way and that includes spectating. Soring horses is the equine equivalent of dog fighting; it's a hideous, repulsive abomination accompanied by all the attendant evils associated with criminality.

    It should not be legal to abuse any being . We have a responsibility to them to keep them safe from harm.

    As an amateur hunter/jumper rider, I am sickened by the practice of soring. I see no legitimate reason for anyone who cares about horses' welfare to oppose this legislation. Thank you.

    Please pass the PAST Act for the horses as none of them deserve this torture. For so many decades old real horsemen do not speak of the TWH and with tears in the eyes & heavy hearts have wished for a day of hope for them like this.

    No Animal No Matter How Big or Small Should have to Go Through this Cruel & Inhumane Kind of Treatment! It is Our Job to Protect All of God's Creatures & to Give Them a Voice because We are the Only Protection & the Only Voice that They Have! We Need to Do Everything in Our Power to Make Sure Every Animal is Treated Humanely with Love & Respect! Animals do So Much for Us and Give Us Love, Friendship, and their Undivided Attention! They are Loyal & Obedient and Love Us Unconditionally and We Repay Them by Causing Them Harm or Using Them for Entertainment Purposes and it isn't Right! Please Make Sure these Horses are Cared for Properly and Nothing is Done to Them that Causes Them Any Kind of Pain or Distress! Thank You & God Bless! Jana

    No person should be allowed to own or trane a horse when it is the knowledge of all that in the end to accomplish this BIg Lick a Tennessee Walking Horse has to be tortured and Maimed in the process. Please pass the PAST Act to stop this terrible unhumane treatment. Joy Keco
