NYC activists’ carriage-horse threats prove they’ll use any excuse to force a ban

In New York City, activists pushing for a ban on carriage horses are facing backlash for what some see as unfounded and politically motivated attacks. Critics argue that these activists are using exaggerated claims and fear-mongering to push their agenda, despite a lack of scientific or medical backing. This controversy highlights a broader debate about animal welfare versus traditional practices, raising questions about the motives behind such campaigns and the potential impact on both the horses and the city's tourism industry. The debate underscores the tension between modern activism and preserving long-standing traditions.
