Texas: Racehorse Named 'Black Lives Matter' Mysteriously Dies - Black Owner Suspects Racism As Cause

“Black Lives Matter,” the racehorse which gained national attention for its demonstrative moniker, has died, according to its owners. The Hatley family, which became the first Black family to race quarter horses in Texas, revealed that its colt had mysteriously died following a routine veterinary procedure.

The horse was admitted last week to an equestrian veterinary clinic in Texas, but when the Hatleys arrived to retrieve their prize-winning pet he was found unresponsive and lying still in a stall.

We took our horse BLM an hour away for a VET for a short, simple procedure that will collect sperm for future breeding and also have him castrated so that he can perform without overactive hormones and have better success during the race,” explained Keeundra Hatley-Smith in an Instagram post.

She continued, “We left him healthy! But when we returned to pick him up he didn’t respond.”

..... Snip.....

"There is no proof of post op care and documentation. We are so hurt!” said Hatley-Smith. “We need answers and we want justice!”

She theorized that the horse’s death could have been racially charged.

“This is proof that Black people AND THIER PETS are neglected in all aspects of the medical fields,” concluded Hatley-Smith. “My children loved him and knew exactly what his name stood for. Now it’s gone!”

investigating it would be racist. They will probably pay up just to avoid having their offices burned and looted.

Horse die from all kinds of things. Stress from a trailer ride, anesthesia, 100+ degree heat cause all kinds on maladies in them.

You’re haylarious.

Your award. One of many I am sure. Hang it in the chicken coop to motivate the girls.

Unless you had a typo and you were *betting* on a horse, which is altogether a different mane event.
