Oh for goodness sake don't be so silly!
Yes he used his baton but remember it was wearing a rug for starters which would mean it would lessen feeling, and as the adreniline would be running high I bet it barely felt it.
Police horses are like any other, scared of fireworks, but they do have to remember their training and go forwards and all this rider was doing was making sure the horse went forwards not ran away. A bolt through a crowded street would have been a lot more dangerous than a couple of smacks.
Your moaning should be directed at the utter morons who thought it acceptable to throw fireworks at what were innocent parties in the protest, the horses didn't exactly choose to be there did they?
Have you sent a letter of protest to the Student Union?
