CCABLAC is "WE, The People" grassroots organization.
Citizens have peacefully assembled and protested "Big Lick" Animal
Cruetly from Gulf of Mexico
at Panama City Beach, Florida to
Blue Ridge Mountains of Asheville,
NC – from Delta farmland of Tunica, Mississippi to Times Square in
New York City – Nashville,
Tennessee to the White House in
Washington, D.C.
Background: On January
20, 2017, the Trump Administration stopped a new
Federal Regulation from going into effect which would remove the
"Pads and Chains" to end the "Big Lick" Animal Cruelty. The
"Big Lick" is created when Tenneessee Walking Horses have 8+ pound
shoes nailed to their front feet, the sensitive skin on their front
feet "SORED" (blistered) with chemicals. In the show
ring, the chains hit the horses "SORE" front feet causing the
horses to step high. This is the "Big Lick".
The proposed Federal Regulation had strong bi-partisan support
with conservative Republican Rep. Ted
Yoho (R-FL) and Rep. Kurt
Schrader (D-OR), both large animal vets in favor.
Native Tennessean, MTSU (Middle
Tennessee State University) Horse Science Professor Equine
Vet Dr. John Haffner, says -
"It is a business built on the suffering and pain of horses. .
The "Big Lick" is a learned response to pain and if horses have not
been sored, they do not learn it."
