Referring to the pro-hunt exhibition of a dead horse, I hope all the shocked letter writers were vegetarian because I'm sure a visit to an abattoir would reveal much worse sights.

As for dear little children being upset - what a wonderful opportunity to discuss eating meat, death, protesting or any other subject

such an unlikely sight could have brought up.

Aren't dead human bodies on the news just as shocking?
