Well it's clear you have no problem with animal cruelty for food then, so perhaps you should examine why you find "exotic meats" such as horse to involve some exceptional amount of it. This was my point - the most barebones vegan analysis can reveal some interesting parallel prejudices.
If it was at all possible I would raise, slaughter and butcher my own meat. I looked into it; but it just wasn't feasible as I live in a city. Trust me, I tried. I hunt whenever it's possible, which is not often.
I grew up on a farm that raised its own meat. You'll have a fun time trying to sell me on it.
But I don't really care - it doesn't really matter to you what I think of your diet. The point about parallel prejudices is one that deserves hammering down, and the reason that I'm leaving this comment is to point out to anyone else how interesting it is that you've chosen to ignore it but still taken the time to respond and defend what you eat, twice, when that wasn't even what the conversation was about.

If you give them a big hug before you cut their throat, it makes it okay.
