Hearts and minds are with you, the spirits of those who have died and will continue to die, the foals born in the squalor and disease of feedlots-destined to live the next 3 years being moved around the country from adoption to adoption never seeing a sunrise or sunset but thru bars..The power of their need and suffering is a force!

i watched from home online at blm website thanks to cloud for posting link – and i sent to all my horse friends – loved the feed back from all the supporters for the wild horses and burros – especially lady who did the number showing that if the horses had increased over 100 percent even the stallions would have had to have twins – did not appreciate the ones who of course support the blm’s program of mass roundups and sterlization program – got email from the horse fund about horses on the hill again so guess another march on washington is needed – now i think the horses do have some friends in washington like rep burton who spoke before congress in january and told blm why not let madeleine take the horses she wants to take – seemed like a good solution to him.

When the group applauded (RESPECTFULLY) after a presentation, I heard them being admonished by one of the board members and told to show respect. The board members need to be reminded that this is NOT COMMUNIST CHINA!
