These three vandals are our Nations disgrace. They have destroyed and littered a great symbol of freedom over our land and gloating about it. Such unprovoked madness, taking pleasure in striking pure fear and pain in a sadistic unquenchable thirst for creating suffering and death; they should NOT be allowed to walk openly on our streets, around our homes where other animals, and especially innocent children, could be easily targeted next in some sick way. I am sure with their immoral hearts it would only be a matterof time.

This reckless unleashed sickness MUST cease under a cherished memorial which stands for a priceless piece of history and beauty in the world of nature, in which God gave us to appreciate and respect. Think about it. How these wildhorses had been tamed to help humankind...helped us to be where we are today.

What is left of the natural wild horses is their own struggle to survive through harsh weather, thirst, hunger, bearing foals, suffering natural illnesses, injuries and dangers only to have been shot down in cold blooded murder (some in foal), some trying desperately to reach safety, only to collapse miles away in total bewilderment, bleeding to death, suffering with fractured bones and torn organs, after being maimed and tortured for the sport of it.

This tempest trio of mindless fools must pay their dues. They should be stripped, flogged in public and imprisoned. I hope that for these three, absolutely no less than a year for each of the horses that they maimed/killed, including a year for each and every unborn foal lost in this tragedy.

Laws MUST be changed to protect the next vulnerable victim(s) and not condone this behavior with a small fine and a slap on the hand. Perhaps the United States should adapt similar punishment of other countries when dealing with such rampant evil to keep it from spawning.
