Morgan horse

I don't think that's a Morgan.

Had a feeling someone would say that. Not trying to derail here but why do you believe that is not?
I checked their PD they do use them and as Morgans as used often as mounted PDs. They can also be that color. Though, you cannot see anything much in the video of the horse, the facial profile looks similar to one. Unless the sources say otherwise but haven't seen that yet? Anyway was just trying to contribute.

Would you feel the same way if she had Slapped the Officer riding the Horse Instead ? Food for Thought .

Appreciate it. I just don't think it's a Morgan. We are talking about the gray right?

ETA: Owned a Morgan. First horse.

The gray horse in the video yes. True may not be but just assumed as much from the little data available.
Nice, they are really beautiful gentle horses and I'm pretty familiar with them(veterinary) was just wondering thanks for your reply.

The officer can slap back and put her in handcuffs.

Striking an officer. Striking an animal. Both illegal.

I am not anti LEO. I'm actually pro LEO.

Good Answer . Technically , the Horse is also an Officer of the Law .

Yes, I've heard that before.

Like a police dog is an officer.

Nothing they are doing is "protesting".

Definition of protesting: "something said or done that shows disagreement with or disapproval of something"

Isn't the bigger issue here the Police blinding and choking humans with chemical sprays...#### the horse. i'm sure it will get over the slap after some counseling sessions on the couch. oh the trauma.

We have tools like this in the UK.
Way to bring shame on both yourself and those you are associated with.

The trouble with the left is they don't have the intellectual capacity to realise that their certainty that they are right should not translate into a carte blanche to act without limits in pursuit of their goal.

Hurting animals, whether they are police or not is just awful and something no right thinking human should have any truck with.

We are talking about a nation that has no qualms in sticking a razor sharp arrowhead into a Bear, Cougar, Deer, coyote, fox, Turkey, Pheasant, Elk, Moose, Beaver, Gator, Fish etc etc.

And people from the US in this thread are getting all upset and their knickers in a twist about a woman slapping a horse. get real.

God forbid she ever takes up Horse racing and whips the things arse red raw from 5 furlongs out and over the finish line..

a reply to: TerminalVelocity

you mean this?

Um. People have the right to protest, but when it turns violent then they have lost the plot. I have no respect for people who take it out on the police, or their horses.

Two things to note.

1. She would not have slapped a police dog.
2. The US police horses whoud have some protection. In the UK, in demonstrations, police horses are armoured.

Nothing to do with "the left" but as per fricking usual people (like you) have this short sighted Daily Mail attitude. The people who do this are morons and being moronic has no social , religious or racial boundaries.

Everyone who ever uses the actions of a moron as an "example" of those they disagree with is actually demonstrating their lack of intellectual capacity.

People like me?

Sure, there are those on the right who are every bit as bad, though I don't see conservative voters rallying at labour party meetings calling for them to be killed etc. Plenty of Labour supporters happily fetch up to cause trouble though and twitter is full of morons with twibbons supporting Corbyn who want ukip voters killed.

I've never in my life bought the daily mail btw. I read the tele or the times, occasionally the indie.


To add a little context, this individual moron was part of a large mob of people who can't accept other people's democratic mandate to vote for and support their own candidate.

Say someones who understands nothing about anything he or she just typed.

1.) When you hunt or fish, you are not looking to make the animal suffer. You are looking to kill as quickly as possible. Most people who hunt do so in order to eat what they kill. And for the rest, live in a rural area where there is no ready animal control and have to deal with a sick or injured wild animal. What would you do? Let it carry on sick and injured, possibly a danger to you and your healthy pets, or put it down? Or, do you let certain animals simply break into your attic and do upwards of $25,000 in damage to your home on a regular basis out of your concern? Of course not, you control your pests and the sick and injured, even if it means having to shoot some on the occasional basis.

2.) Also, popper bat quirts used in horse racing do not break skin. They are blunt clubs of leather. They are used to get the horses' attention, not to "whip them bloody" as you assert. Watch some racing and you will see a conspicuous absence of blood. That doesn't change that fact that other dirty tricks are sometimes carried on to get a horse to perform better, but obvious abuse like that is not one of them unless you're talking about unregulated tracks.

After all, you are talking about a nation that barely lets kids play any sports anymore because they might accidentally hit their heads and get Alzhiemer's after age 60 when most people develop it.

I couldn't help but think of this clip from Half Baked.
