Having ate horse in the past - when it was legal I can assure you that the ban is entirely a perfect example of needless regulation. I never had it , but friends of mine said the best ‘buffalo wings’ they ever had was from a resteraunt that was shutdown for serving dog - they were catching local pets which is a good regulation, but the lack of legal ability to get dog is needless.
Americans are weird about dogs - a dog farm would be burned to the ground (with the farmers in it) if ever someone tried to set one up here. Any other social issue sure, it’ll be american pseudofascist insanity, but man don’t mess with the puppies. We care way more about them than other humans.
Frame it from the perspective of the american liberal. Dog breeders are good because I get a pretty puppy. Dog farms are bad because it’s what savages eat, dogs are pets.
There’s been a huge cultural shift against dog breeding as a whole, including sweeping legislation to curtail puppy mills, ensure the genetic health of breeds and to enact animal welfare laws with specific aim to ensure breeders take care of the dogs. All of these are lead by both liberal and conservative groups - thats the “weird about dogs” I was referring to, It’s basically the only truly bipartisan issue we’ve got left in this shithole.
Kinda feel like your drive to feel superior to liberals has distanced you from the reality of what’s actually happening.
And in the US it was banned in the context that people were selling cheaper horse meat as expensive beef - so the ban was more for food purity reasons then anything else.
It wasn’t always the case. It took a porn star dying after porn makers in the 2000s forced a horse to rape a woman (yes, I typed that right), and film it. The practice had been going on since the 70s, but now a woman died. So lawmakers got together and said “Ya know what? No more sleeping with horses. I don’t think anyone will argue that proposed law, and I can use it on the campaign trail next election!”
And so it was. No more horse fucking porn.
And I guess the meat is also illegal. I’m sure there’s a story there too.
Horse meat is illegal.

But dog breeders are fine and good.

Not something I was familiar with but ok, that’s good?
Feel free to swap it with casual neglect of pets then? That’s something I see from all sorts of people in my area.
No. Americans are weird about cows and pigs. The dog regulations make sense.
Not around the world: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Horse_meat#Around_the_world

No it isn’t. Not in Canada anyway.
And…?
Which is stupid.
Oddly enough, so is horse dick!
Now, anyways.

Uh. You’re going to need to cite a source on that. I’m aware of a man that died after he was mounted by a horse, but AFAIK that was a case where the man was entirely willing because he some really fucked up fetishes.
