- I was at a demonstration recently in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. The police
- rode into the crowd on horses and whipped the crowd on their heads and
- shoulders and also the horses stepped on several people, inculding a cop who's
- shoulder was dislocated by it ;->.
-
- Anyway, I wanted to know if anyone here knows of any methods, that won't
- hurt the horses (I don't mind if it hurts the cops of course) to scare the
- horses back. The horses were already extremely reluctant to enter the crowd
- and only pushed in about 15 feet. They were bucking and had to be whipped hard
- and constantly to make them go forward.

- Thanks!!!
