... because its cruel OR is it a harmless and very effective method of control?
If you tried twitching a carnivore like a doggy it would yelp or have your leg off, if you twitched a person it would be considered torture and have you up for GBH. Herbivore pain response is a bit different so conveniently, putting the horse in extreme pain just causes it to switch off . Does that make it OK then? Its certainly useful as a method of restraint and after youve given its nose a rub theres no sign of any damage (or at least there shouldnt be!).
