2. What were the Police trying to do? Did they want the crowd to move?

I did not here any orders given or any reason for people to do anything. Does anyone know what would be a permissible reason for the police to use their horses like that?

4. Someone who was there was on Amy's show.

He said the police kept saying "move back" but there was no place for the crowd to move. He also said one of the horses stumbled and went down on its knees and that at one point, a cop picked up one of those barricades and charged the crowd with it.

Why isn't this a scandal? It's all on video.

6. Not the way to handle a crowd or a horse. There should be a review.

10. know the story of Ghandi and horses in the India Protests

During the Independence of India from Great Britain

The people were protesting and soldiers charged them with the horses
to hurt them but the people lied on the ground and the horses
refused to ride over the protesters no matter how hard their masters
whipped them

Even Animals know when injustice is occurring

3. What's next?

FDNY? Worked for Birmingham in the 1960's to control civil rights protesters. :sarcasm:

7. White shirts u sure r sore....

You don't run this show no more...

given this and the early a.m. raid on Orlando, tells me the Koch brothers and other money people are getting real scared and want to break this up before it gets any bigger. Looks like new orders came out today.
Too late.......

8. Use Laser Lights To Shine In Horses Eyes And Make Them Panic

High intensity laser beams that you can conceal, you can flash in the horses eyes and the horses will buck the cops off.

If they're going to charge into a crowd of people with horses, and hurt people, you are entitled to defend yourself.

9. Other Items To Scare Horses And Make Them Buck...

Really loud noises like the kind that comes out of those cans for self defense. Some people have reported that umbrellas scare horses as well.
