    I'm sick of people abusing animals for their own personal amusement. They weren't put on this earth to entertain us, ESPECIALLY when they are being mistreated in doing so. Someone needs to be the voice for the voiceless and stand up for what is right. Animal cruelty needs to be stopped and people must pay for their actions.

    Please pass this act. It takes nothing away from a human to be kind to an animal. Why would you choose cruelty over compassion? End this violence.

    Please pass the act. This will show us how good and magnanimous the congress is. This not only helps build the reputation for the good of the US governor internationally but also win the trust of the US citizens.

    Please pass this act to stop the cruel practice of horse soring. Soring is unnecessary and cruel. Tennessee Walking Horse enthusiasts can enjoy these animals without torturing them.

    Please stop and think for a moment. What if you could not bear to put any weight on your foot to walk without severe pain. Humans are given pain meds, crutches so they may be able to prevent weight bearing pain. These horses are given no consideration of the pain they endure day after day with no relief in sight. Please. They feel pain just as you and I do. They are a living, breathing being and deserve to be shown mercy and compassion just as we would want. the horses have no voice so I am speaking up for them. You can too by passing this bill.

    This is sickening ! Hands down with out any hesitation it should be stopped and all people that are involved in this abuse should be jailed in my Opinion, I believe personally they all should get the chair! No animals deserve to be abused especially from greedy people like these! No amount of money in the world is worth the suffering and pain that these precious animals are going through! Stop the abuse now! How would you feel if it was you ! Maybe let them try it on you so you can feel first hand what it feels like!

    i have witnessed this atrocity first hand. The fact that this has NOT been successfully regulated is abominable. Please remove the "pads" and chains from these performers. The horses have no voice save those that speak for them. Please.

    This cruel abuse has been going on for years. The very idea that not everyone, especially our TN elected officials, are not against this abuse. How could Marsha Blackburn be so insensitive to the pain these snimals are suffering.

    Please finally put an end to this abuse. If it were being done to your beloved pets you would feel the way I do. Horses cannot be treated this way. The chains, rollers and stacks are painful for them to stand in all day and night, sometimes for months or even years in the case of "My Magic" in Oregon. These stacks also restrict the horses movement, they cannot move freely in a pasture or be with other horses, which is very cruel because they are herd animals. Very sad this has been going on so long. Please stop the abuse.
