I haven't read all the posts but as a police officer when I watched the footage it is obvious to me that the rider is racking his baton open which you do by flicking it open with some form. It never even crossed my mind that he looked like he was hitting the horse, that is the standard action to open your baton.
I didn't think it was that bad, but I would have been quite happy for him to hit the t***s round the arse with his baton for throwing the fireworks at the horses
wasn't he a Ballet Dancer?
We are not talking about a jumping crop here... you would get a reaction from that, and I didn't see that in that horse!

Indeed, I think you meant Extracting The Urine, Tankey....
And NP, wasn't the ballet dancer to whom you refer the one with the very large **ahem ahem** ballet shoes?
Oh dear flipping GodRead a bit further, Tankey, the Ethical Trainer is a fan of Nevzorov
Thank you for posting this!

I have, that poor horse is doing its job as best it can. To beat i8t with a metal truncheon is unjust. I feel we should call for this officer to be retrained, a vet to asses this horse and the horse be retrained/rehabilitated.
Bugger, cant I ?Tanks..you can't say piss...someone will press THE button

Oh *******s, well what can I say then?you can't say Bugger, either
Is bunny and hugger still allowed in the same sentence?Or muppet.....even if its obvious that they are everywhere again.
I feel the double bridle played a part in the horse not bolting. This was enough to control the horse the need to hit it was unjust in my book.

For those of you who feel its OK to beat, thwack or smack. Here are the facts: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PMfcc0hzGMU&feature=share
In my opinion, it looks like he's waving his baton to get the officers on the ground to move forward. It's a shakey view.
Well done to the poor horse in the main shot though!!
So who ordered him to draw his batton because the only other target would be the crowd! You will see that none of the other officers have drawn theirs. I would rather believe that he drew it to give the horse a possibly deserved slap or two ,than that it was to ride into the crowd and crack heads!

My personal summary:
1)The students are a pack of prats for throwing the fireworks at the horses.
2) If the officer hit the horse, it was the correct response under the circumstances and in no way excessive.
3) I wanna borrow the stick to go and beat up the students who threw the firework...I promise to be excessive
I've watched this numerous times now and it certainly doesn't look like the officer even makes contact with the horse!!
unless of course we are ethical trainer in which case we would all dismount and spend a few moments making daisy chains for each other.
I will help
I haven't read all the replies, but having watched the clip and also having handled one of these asps, they need to be flicked really hard to open. I don't think he hits the horse, I think he is trying to get the asp to open.
