And the horse you rode in on **(December 5, 2015: New York Daily News)**

Manhattan: The push to ban carriage-horse industry has never been about the horses. It’s about money, radical animal rights, real estate and political payback. Mayor de Blasio would ban a 157-year-old industry based on a radical, ideological meme, never having visited the stables or talked to the drivers. Shame on de Blasio for listening to these extremists. I was one of those who voted for him sadly. It’s not too late, Mr. Mayor. “Man up,” as Liam Neeson said, and see the stables for yourself.
