They could have done so, and the fact they they chose not to is very upsetting.Editanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7693697089040184548.post-85465309499859735212010-07-09T12:12:30.248-04:002010-07-09T12:12:30.248-04:00The conditions that carriage horses are forced to ...The conditions that carriage horses are forced to live and work in are absolutely abhorrent. At Manhattan Mini Storage, we are happy to support The Coalition to Ban Horse-Drawn Carriages. Whenever someone rents a storage unit, we donate $25 on their behalf to one of five local charities. If you are interested, you can read more on our program here: http://www.manhattanministorage.com/do/charity<br />Hopefully, we will soon see an end to this antiquated practice.manhattan minihttp://www.manhattanministorage.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7693697089040184548.post-72539245931795621202010-07-08T15:39:24.342-04:002010-07-08T15:39:24.342-04:00"But as soon as it reaches 90, if the HLE off..."But as soon as it reaches 90, if the HLE officers are at the hack line, the driver is told to take his horse and carriage back to the stables, over scorching hot asphalt, under the blazing sun.
