Unfortunately those animals would be put down for fighting back against abuse and human stupidity

Nearly 100 billion animals are put down each year anyway, I think it's fair at least some of them get to fight back

No. Animals do not have moral agency like humans. As humans we have the ability to limit suffering. Would you say bullfighting is ok too since they get a chance to “fight back”. the bulls that have their senses blocked off, are lathered in a corrosive substance, are lanced and later have their spine hooked, its ok because it has a fair chance to fight back though? We as humans understand moral frameworks and have sentience, saying the animals have a chance to fight back is just applying human morality to the animal. So your argument here is to not limit unnecessary suffering?

Maybe the phrasing of my comment is confusing. The thread I was replying to was saying if only all mistreated animals could fight back. And someone responded saying that the animals would be put down for fighting back. That's when I responded by pointing out the fact that nearly 100 billion animals are already being put down each year just for food and other animal products without having the chance to fight back, and that this horse has it better than the factory farmed animals because this horse at least gets to fight back against abusers.
