It seems that everybody is good and stirred up over the looming deadline for slaughter this upcoming week. Good. We certainly don’t know how it’s all going to shake out on Friday, but many of us are hopeful we’ll get a stay of execution for our equine friends. I wish I could tell you all the ultimate good news which is a final end to this madness, but we aren’t quite there yet. We do have some decent news though that will hopefully cheer some people up and motivate you to keep up the good fight.
As most of you are aware, Front Range Equine out of Colorado (www.frontrangequinerescue.org)have partnered with the HSUS in filing suit to stop the opening of the slaughter houses that have been granted conditional inspection permits. That would be the case in New Mexico against the USDA over them issuing these permits without proper environmental review. Yesterday, Front Range Equine issued the following statement on their Facebook page:
A quick update to our lawsuit against USDA:
Yesterday, the State of New Mexico asked the court to allow it to enter the case Front Range Equine Rescue filed against the USDA for authorizing the beginning of horse slaughter without engaging in proper environmental review. In support of its request to be able to join the lawsuit, the State cited the need to protect against a violation of New Mexico environmental and public health laws associated with horse slaughter, to prevent the production of adulterated horse meat, and to prevent a financial impact to the state. New Mexico now wishes to become a plaintiff in the lawsuit and defend the state from the harms of horse slaughter.
Yesterday also saw several Native Americans enter the case, tribal members and leaders who believe that horse slaughter is a violation of Native American principles and culture, and will poison the environment and produce unsafe meat.
There are a couple of things to look at here. First, the state of New Mexico does not want this industry regardless of what Slaughterhouse Sue and her merry band of horse haters tell you. Perhaps more importantly is the participation of `several Native Americans’ both tribal members and leaders that also don’t want any part of this barbaric industry. This paints quite a different picture than the one Slaughterhouse Sue and D-bag Duquette have been flashing around for months and months. Suey would have us believe that all tribes and their people are positively moist at the prospect of being able to slaughter their horses based on the fact she somehow managed to get Jason Smith, President of the National Horse Coalition, says. Despite their lofty name and title, it would seem that the National Tribal Horse Coalition is really not speaking for the people and may be just another smokescreen for Suey’s efforts. Kinda the same way she likes to refer to herself as speaking for the entire horse industry that is widely disgusted by her. It would seem by the both the statement released today and this article from last year (http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/article/american-indians-offer-programs-for-horses-that-treat-the-sacred-animals-as-a-way-of-life-70636) that the native population that are interested in slaughter are a few minority tribes in the mid and northwest and somewhat misleading in naming themselves as the `National’ anything. The linked article talks about what other tribes are doing to address their horse population while still respecting the animal and NOT slaughtering them. For anybody interested, court documents can be viewed here: (http://docs.burningbird.net/sun-07212013-1007/several-new-filings-front-range-equine-rescue-et-al-vs-usda-horse-slaughter)
As I always say, when Slaughterhouse Suey shuts her yap for more than 48 hrs, she is normally up to something. It would seem this time is no different as Front Range Equine also had this to say today:
On Friday, filings to intervene on USDA’s side of the lawsuit are proposed slaughter plants Responsible Transportation (IA) and Rains Natural Meats (MO) along with Chevaline LLC and the Confederated Tribes & Bands of the (highly misinformed and misled) Yakama Nation. Chevaline is Sue Wallis.
That’s right, yet another `company’ that Suey is behind. Chevaline has been in existence for about 3 years and is listed as an LLC that supplies wholesale frozen foods (http://www.manta.com/c/mx3dzmr/chevaline-llc). It would seem this will be the company Suey runs with as she has registered `Humane Equine Products’ as a trademark or is at least attempting to. It is currently published for opposition on this site: (http://www.trademarkia.com/chevaline-humane-equine-products-85779889.html). Even more questionable is that if you do a company search on Chevaline LLC, it had an estimated annual revenue of $170,00 (http://companies.findthecompany.com/l/30872364/Chevaline-Llc-in-Recluse-WY). I’m not sure of the accuracy of that number or what it is based on, but it seems rather high considering she hasn’t been able to legally slaughter a horse for consumption in this country yet. Given the fact that Chevaline is joining in on the lawsuit and that isn’t free, I have to wonder if she isn’t getting backed by foreign interests and filtering it through this company. We already know she has several companies and organizations so it gets a bit tough to keep up with. If you want to take a look at the company website, complete with pictures of Suey cavorting with the Tongans in Utah, while they all eat horse meat (legal?), it’s right here : (http://chevaline.us/). It would seem between Chevaline and Wyoming Meats, Suey is going to be killing a LOT of horses if she gets her way. As per her own sworn statement to intervene in the present litigation, Chevaline has been in the business of marketing equines for slaughter for consumption since January 2012. She also states that she contracts with both the Missouri and Iowa slaughter plants. (http://docs.burningbird.net/horse/courtcase/document51.pdf). Please let this finally be all of Suey’s hairy ass exposed for us to deal with as I’m just not I’m prepared to see any more crack from this cretin.
So there you have it. It’s not the absolute best news ever, but it’s all good today. They have a battle on their hands, which we already knew. They don’t have quite all the support that they would have people believe and it’s not over. I know many of you are getting frustrated. It is tiring to keep fighting these asswads on every front. I know several of you are mostly concerned with the wild herds. I’m concerned with all horses and for me, the priority is to get the threat of slaughter removed first and then go after what is going on with the BLM. The good part is you each get to make your own choice, so don’t give up quite yet. It’s going to be a very long and busy week. Keep a good thought!
*UPDATE*
Today, Robert Redford and former New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, joined in on the pending lawsuit on the side of the horses. They have formed The Foundation to Protect New Mexico’s Wildlife and their first act was to join in on the federal lawsuit filed by the HSUS to block the opening of slaughter houses for horses. Also, on Friday New Mexico Attorney General Gary King filed a motion to intervene on behalf of slaughter opponents. Rumor has it that somewhere in Wyoming, steam was seen to be pouring out of Slaughter House Suey’s ears as she added Robert Redford to her hit list of celebrities she hates which also includes long deceased Bea Arthur. (http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/redford-richardson-form-foundation-that-wants-to-join-lawsuit-against-horse-slaughter/2013/07/22/beca2778-f2f0-11e2-8464-57e57af86290_story.html)
I am so very elated, that others have joined Front Range, thank god……And of course SUEY had to join in honest to god will she never go away I mean far far away, all of them are just prickles in our AS-ES….
The pro Slaughter pushers are really getting very old and SO SICK of hearing about what there going to concoct next…..
But this news is happy, happy news and wonderful to hear…. We are all going to be on pins and needles, I know I will be, OMG if there is a higher power above, I so hope he will help all the horses, FINALLY at least to the next step of this fight ……… Lots of Prayers, will continue to call the white house and my reps and what ever else we all can do we will do……….. Thanks so much for your articles LOVE reading your wit, HA THANKS
ugh. look at the zlobby crazy person in its natural habitat. if i was there i might have ‘exchanged’ a few words with ‘it’
So glad to hear that we are gaining more good guys on our side. The more the merrier. Suey, get ready to get stomped on.
I’m happy to see so many native leaders named on the anti side. Guess Suey can stop spouting that lie any time now as well. I’m surprised she didn’t bribe some Tongans.
They just had a 7.4 earthquake in Tonga. Now if they have one in Utah, I would have to agree with our many supporters who believe God is on our side. (Unfortunately, Tonga has a lot of earthquakes and they are very deep so rarely do they have any damage, but I’ll bet the rumbling makes them think of their afterlife.)
As we found out from one of the comments last week, it is a very few of the Tongans that actually eat horse meat. Once again, Suey has not been entirely honest, so I won’t wish ill on them.
Well, got to give that one credit for admitting that they really want to eat a “filly” (young horse under the age of 4 years old) versus an old, diseased, lame, unwanted adult horse that comprises their campaign strategy.
Wonder if when you stick your foot in your mouth, if it tastes good too?
re: “not to mention just good old ranch families that have traditionally butchered a filly or two a year for their own use”
I suggest we all send pink love and pink light to Chevaline and Ms. Wallis’ – thwart evil by sending it positive energy – rosey pink light bouncing all of Ms. Wallis’ dark negativity back upon her – Bitter Creek Road, in Recluse, WY – remarkable!
Thanks for the great research. And I so agree. We must choose between the Wild Horses and Burros or Horse Slaughter, but choosing either is choosing both. We “horse lovers” all care about all the horses.
We need a short and sweet mantra, say, “LOVE THY HORSE – I LOVE MINE”.<{:-)eb<
Maybe my seeing red will fade to pink soon enough, although the mantra is great!
I don’t think “pink” is her color; but I will give anything a try, if we can just stop some of this madness.. Pink light coming to ya, suey!!!
So glad that New Mexico has joined in the lawsuit. I’m sure the Cavalry Group is involved somewhere in helping finance the pro side.
I looked through the court docs and so far the aren’t named. Unified Equine (another Suey company) and Rockille are mentioned though. I’m more concerned about her 170K annual horse slaughter business that she claims has been up and running for a few years now. Dirty cow!
According to this old article,
http://thegazette.com/2010/07/15/project-to-study-euthanizing-horses-get-state-nod/
young twerp Keaton Walker (“Responsible Transportation”) has been at this since his pre and post graduate days, getting grants for feasibility studies and winning awards for his ‘business model’. Iowa granted him $25,000 to study ‘humane ways to euthanize horses and for processing’. So I s’pose it makes sense they’d be lookin’ to get their investment back.
This passage, however, kinda pisses me off:
Responsible Transportation requested technical assistance funding for third-party research that will allow the company to conduct a feasibility study, plan for the development of a processing plant, perform an export analysis, and design a Website and building design. The activity will facilitate the company application for a “U.S. Department of Agriculture guaranteed loan to further the business operation, according to board documents.” (Is this really possible??)
So far, “Responsible” has a one-page web site with an expired copyright, looking for your old and unwanted equine; you can contact them by e-mail…
http://www.responsible-transportation.com/
He also has a LinkedIn page, outlining his many accomplishments, none of which I personally give a shit.
I mention alla this because, of all the fools we’ve grown accustomed to reading about, pointing and laughing at, this child is apparently NOT one of them. I could find nothing negative or corrupt about this man, only his views on killing horses as a source of income.
If ever we needed a YouTube video and a pink tutu….
He’s young and hooked up with the wrong people…give him time and he’ll be as bent as the rest. However, this is why I figure that he was always the ace up Suey’s sleeve. He presents far better than the New Mexico butcher.
Is there some cougar action going on?
LOL! Gross!
K, just about lost my lunch on the cougar thing bleh
Oh no. I can’t unread that.. thanks a lot LOL
and the fact he danced around the issue on the radio a week ago when asked who he was contracted with and never once mentioned Suey’s company and they’ve been hooked up for awhile it seems.
Well, this may not be “Responsible-Transportation” but it sure is about horribly irresponsible transportation. There is nothing humane about horse slaughter or any of the people involved. The transportation alone is hideous. Warning, this is graphic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wQpYRTK_L-4#at=88
Yes, I too needed this boost.. It gets so heavy sometimes… Not to mention all the other corruption our Govt is into these days… It makes my heart hurt, and my mind spin….
I must admit that I am thrilled beyond belief with this news and happier that the horses (all) have a very powerful voice in their corner. Here is hoping that the other Attorney Generals’ step up in IA, OK, MO nd add their voices to those that are interested in slaughtering their companion’s.
Thankyou so much for that boost. I think it’s great news! I emailed responsible transpo the other day and asked some questions about their “humane proceedures.” Curiously, I did not get a response. I will admit my tone had and edge to it. I couldn’t help myself.
Good for you, keep them on the hot seat… :0
Interesting that defunct businesses seem to be the ones trying to get on the cruelty infused U.S. horse slaughter train. All of them spout words like humane (when pigs fly), super duper testing (not bloody likely), and a perceived global market (would that be a global black market? ..what with all the scandalous news, arrests, restrictions and such). Pro Slaughter translation might be,
“ Businesses that just want to make money at the expense of every horse and every human” globally.
These resurrected businesses must not have noticed yet, but the majority of the American people are against horse slaughter. In these particular “trying to open a horse slaughter house” states, the American people who are against horse slaughter are also in the majority.
If these businesses invest all their funds into these ventures, then it will be that much sweeter for the majority who are against the (horrific, abusive, greedy, toxic, lie infested, environmentally contaminating, secret double dealing, criminally motivated, irresponsibly driven) horse slaughter industry ~ and extremely sweet to witness all these businesses forever become defunct.
What is really getting on my nerves, is the Santos guy has committed several felonies-fraudulent lies on his application… Why have they NOT pressed charges against this man??? Why is HE above the law????
Some better news hopefully all the plants will be denied, I think Iowa is the only one that got the waste water plant go ahead.

The odds seem to be building against them for sure. Praying for a good outcome next week as there is plenty of more time for others to join in.
I love how they are calling themselves a “family business,” (the NM plant) and saying New Mexico is against family bus. I would say the only family they resemble is the Manson Family. One comment on FB wished we would spend our time and $ on the negligent breeders and ignorant horsekeepers instead of the end result being slaughter. Any thoughts on what to say to her?
Well, I would point out that the end for these horses does NOT have to be slaughter. There are many other options, and if slaughter were not available, these breeders couldn’t afford to be so negligent and owners couldn’t afford be so irresponsible. Having slaughter as a dumping ground is enabling all this reckless breeding and owners being so irresponsible.
Not to mention all the horses the kill buyers are abandoning in the desert southwest after the Mexican slaughter plant rejects them. NONE of that would be happening at all if it weren’t for slaughter.
Give her hell!
I would also tell them that until the slaughter option is taken away once and for all, there will always be an incentive to breed indiscriminately. Apart from that, I wish we could spend our money and energy on addressing neglect and cruelty too, but right now slaughter is a threat to every horse and that has to come first.
Hey, guys, I was rummaging around trying to find out more about this “Humane Horse Products” (HA!) thing and I ran across this: http://www.trademarkia.com/company-chevaline-llc-3934878-page-1-2 Evidently, Chevaline LLc is a threesome.
Reply to myself – all three of these “companies” list Richard C. Slater as the “correspondent.” Whatever that means.
That would be her attorney, I think.
This woman is exhausting to keep up with. How many different enterprises does this make?
There seems to be two Chevaline LLcs at different addresses on Bitter Creek Rd.

Perhaps her brother is a part of it too or her father. I think they all live on the same place or something
Cougars and slaughter and incest…oh my!
