    This needs to be considered animal cruelty. It’s basically a circus act, pigs riding on horses.

      Police horses are trained to hurt people, just like police dogs.

        They are more trained to not respond to people, and to follow the commands of the rider. The horses are just doing their job, it’s the pig riding it that does the hurting.

        Police dogs though, that’s a can of worms.

          Police horses are trained to kick the shit out of crowrds, which is why the police even use them.
