Stop using horses for police duties!

The Issue

Horses are being used for police duties and going through unnecessary suffering. 

Horses have no choice in deciding if they want to be used as a defence.

Judging by yet another recent event of a horse running away during a pubic protest, shows how timid and scared these animals can be.

News show a police officer was rode into traffic lights during the BLM protest.

Peaceful protesters were also struck down - the protest was not to blame, the use of horses for police duties was.

Although tough on the surface, horses are very nervous animals! They are scared by objects they can’t readily identify, and this includes moving objects.

Yes a bike was push towards a horse, it breaks my heart but why put the horse in the line of fire in the first place!

Why are we treating humans like animals!

Why are we using animals!

It is not acceptable!

Horses have a long history of being prey animals and their nervous, scared, flighting nature is built into their genetic makeup. They were the top of the food chain for tigers, wolves and humans alike!

They will always run first, and reflect on the situation later.

Why put them and most importantly the people around them in danger!  

On top of this, horses do not have the same visions as humans, they don’t have the same focusing abilities.

Imagine all the above and also not being able to identify what is around you - and on top of that they cover their eyes!

Stand with me to protect our black beauties!

Release the horses!
