I have continuously used it to counter claims of how "safe" Grey racing is, or how much "Greyhounds love to run" (with the unsaid inference being "at the tracks."). I encourage all Grey lovers to copy it for themselves, and to keep it as an "arrow in their quiver" to combat the lies told by racing supporters. You are encouraged to make it your own, especially changing the signature, and to modify it as needed. All I demand is that you are completely truthful. I have copied a list of only the links (sometimes with brief descriptions of some of the clips), and will use them if there is limited space, or the links only options will serve the argument better. If I see an argument or article regarding Grey racing, I try to post this as quick as possible so that newcomers to the conversation will the the damage done by the racing industry first, before racing supporters barge in and start calling everyone who opposes grey racing liars. I have to post this in two parts.<br /><br />part one:<br /> "To all those who wonder about Greyhound racing, and to those who take the morally reprehensible position that Grey racing should be legal:<br /> Ignoring all of the evidence proving that Greys suffer in innumerable ways at racetracks does not make any of it go away, from malnourishment (including feeding them 4D meat (the meat from dying and "downer" cows)), to debilitating injuries, to premature deaths. If ANYONE believes the Grey racing proponents here, or anywhere else, venture forth. Just a few, minimal examples are right here. Of course, these don't fit the Greyhound Racing Association's talking points, do they? Just so everyone reading this knows the malice and ill-will cavalierly thrown about by these imposters who pretend that track racing is good for Greys, let's have a look at these vids and articles, and then see who the liars REALLY are, shall we? You can go online and find innumerable videos and articles on the abuse on Greyhounds at the tracks, and the thousands of Greys bred to produce a few hundred “acceptable” (read: money-making) racers. Search “Greyhound death”, “Greyhound abuse”, Greyhound torture”, “Greyhound fatality”, “Greyhound fatalities”, “Greyhound disaster”, “Greyhound accident at track”, or many more combos.<br /> Let’s start here. I can’t even watch this one, again. You can see the fear in the poor puppy’s eyes. He’s been listening to all his sisters and brothers screaming when they were tattooed, so he is already scared. His anticipatory fear simply amplifies the pain.<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5AndNefxlJw<br /><br /> And it only gets worse from there. So, EVERY TIME someone tells you how “innocent” Grey racing is, or how much “Greyhounds love to run,” ask them, “How much do Greyhounds love to run at racetracks?” Ask them “How much did the white Grey with the blue coat looking right (at the rear of the pack at 1:26 of this clip from GreytExploitations.com) love hearing a racemate scream in agony, before watching it snap its neck?<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZjzY3COods<br />Eric McDonaldnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7779555146664298023.post-41521238879307659532013-05-10T12:04:56.295-04:002013-05-10T12:04:56.295-04:00The best thing we can do is to simply continue wor...The best thing we can do is to simply continue working hard for the dogs.CTheilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16786867934857847494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7779555146664298023.post-5139598706146530212013-05-10T12:03:30.515-04:002013-05-10T12:03:30.515-04:00Is there anything we can do?Is there anything we can do?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18353294772375755323noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7779555146664298023.post-82692198709162699812013-05-09T19:29:24.738-04:002013-05-09T19:29:24.738-04:00Gee, you would think they have something to hide.....Gee, you would think they have something to hide...Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05828660398934873178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7779555146664298023.post-40396190675365999402013-05-09T19:25:46.125-04:002013-05-09T19:25:46.125-04:00Greyhound racing needs to be banned in the US, as ...Greyhound racing needs to be banned in the US, as well as in every other country on the planet. It's horrendous the way these poor dogs are treated like so much garbage. These abusers should be locked up forever and receive the exact same treatment that they give these poor dogs. In fact, they deserve to be treated far worse. Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16466175240656347560noreply@blogger.com
