Neither the money nor the races are the problem though, Raze. It is the people that are the problem.

Banning greyhound races will not change the attitude that torturing animals is fine, nor will it do anything except lead to the mass slaughter of the hounds. These are working dogs, and if their work dries up they will ALL be killed, not just the older ones.

There is already a surplus of dogs at animal homes, and a large number are (Humanely, in Britain at least) put down every year simply because there are no homes for them and the animal charities cannot support an infinite number of dogs.

Banning racing solves nothing.
