Liberty's Law, the proposed ordinance to enhance and enforce laws to protect horses from abuse and harassment, now has 1,069 signatures on the online petition with support growing daily. Facebook followers continue to grow as well; currently standing at 460.
Equestrian groups such as Fortheloveofahorse.org and Savethehorses.org also house a "Liberty's Law"banner and link on their home pages. We are now campaigning to horse farms throughout the state to do the same in addition to more marketing in the near future.
Liberty's Law is not just about one horse in Milton GA that has suffered ongoing abuse and harassment by local youths. It is about Misty out of Fayetteville GA who was shot four times with a bow and arrow. It is about Rocks and Lucky out of Hall County; both shot by a high powered rifle; leaving Lucky being the only one breathing. Finally, it is about a horse who died on July 6th of this year on Dorris Road in Milton GA after being spooked by fireworks shot from a neighboring property.
Horses are loving beings that simply want to be left alone. However, cowards throughout the country find some warped since of pleasure by bothering an animal that hold no threat to them at all.
It is curious why city council and staff of Milton GA, who carries an image of a horse as it's seal and harbors numerous equestrian related pictures on the city website, continues to remain defiant in allowing Liberty's Law to be even be presented. Only time will tell if this silence is a benefit or a detriment.
Please share the word about Liberty's Law and help us make a difference.
Together, we can protect the beautiful horses from abuse and harassment!
