This is a horrible story.

A cigarette tossed by a North Carolina motorist landed in a trailer carrying six racehorses on Friday night. A bundle of hay was ignited and the young horses trapped as fire quickly engulfed the trailer. The driver of the Loraine Course Transport tractor-trailer stopped on seeing smoke and another driver suffered burns while trying to pull out the horses, all of whom were killed.
As the New York Daily News reports, one of the racehorses belonged to former New York Racing Association President Barry Schwartz. Raised in a one-bedroom apartment in the Bronx, Schwartz helped fashion designer Calvin Klein build his multi-million dollar empire.

Keep your butt in the car!

If you cannot smoke responsibly, don't smoke at all.

If you are not already hooked on it, don't start!!
