I'm with Ustwo -- animals are not under the same laws as we are.
We don't sue animals for sexual harassment because rubbing their genitals along my leg made be uncomfortable.. and I repeatedly said NO.
Similarly, I own two horses and I agree that you ain't forcing a horse to do shit. Ever tried to push a horse somewhere it didn't want to go? Yea, fuck that.
However, whether the horse wanted it or not is really inconsequential. We treat animals humanely, not AS humans. If we did, I think a great many of us would starve to death.
