Guys Sensationalism at it's best. I am glad the police where there for a change in force so they could keep control. Great to see the horses there. Instead of bagging the police why don't you do something constructive and use your energies for good of protest like education or a real solution. Protest legally.... How many were arrested that day? 30 odd .... Oh let me guess it was police fault as well they should allow anarchy and allow ferals to enter enclosed lands! Get a job.

you are such an idiot if you think these horses are trained to be aggressive, police horses are the exact opposite, they are taught to be patient and obey all commands of his owner, otherwise how would they get them to do anything, and angry animal is just scared and not worthy of the task these horses do

[emmahorse]

if you knew anything about horses you would know that the horses leg is irritated, either by flys or boots or anything around its leg, the horse is not kicking anyone...there is no one near it to kick! and inappropriate use of police horses? the horses are walking along beside the protest...ohh yeahh so inappropriate. Grow up, police attend all protests to avoid them getting out of control

they should be thanking God they only used horse rather than beanbag gun , mace, tazer, or live rounds...which in most cases would do us all a favor for these excuses waiting for a riot to happen and go full on tard.

you never control a animal for 100%. and the horse probably got irritated bij flys.

[rossyullapool]

That horse was going bonkers not!!!!! It was probally getting irrated by flys caused by hippies

I don't see anything wrong with them having horses there, if not to keep the protestors in line than to keep anyone who might bug the protestors in line.

Seemed to me like the horse kept kicking with the same foot, maybe he had a rock or something in his hoof?
