Wild video shows crazed animal rights activist smack NYC horse carriage driver in face with skateboard

She got knocked off her high horse.

Wild footage shows a crazed, self-righteous animal rights activist smacking a horse-drawn carriage driver in the face with her skateboard in Central Park — before cops arrested her for felony assault, police said Wednesday.

Sanctimonious skate punk Abigail Holbrook, 27, of Philadelphia first unleashed an unhinged tirade about “animal abuse” Tuesday on 59th Street near West Drive, according to footage shot by one of the drivers.

“You’re animal abusers! Horses do not do well in New York City. They are very sensitive to light and noise,” she shouted, according to the video. “I’m Squid the Kid, bro. Y’all will know my f–ing name.”

When another 45-year-old driver made a muffled comment, Holbrook flipped out and wielded her longboard as a weapon — bashing him in the shoulder and face with it, according to cops and footage.

The driver then grabbed the skateboard away from her, prompting her to whine, “Give me my board back!”

“Get the f-ck outta here,” the driver hollered back at her.

The wildly un-stable horse gal then grabbed her board away from him — and screamed at the cameraman, “You’re an animal abuser, are you proud of this?!”

She then appeared to rip his camera away as he shouted, “Call 911!”

Along with the skateboard assault, Holbrook is accused of punching a second 45-year-old carriage driver, according to police, who charged her with two counts of felony assault.

It was not immediately clear if the second assaulted driver was the man shooting footage.

Reps for New York City carriage workers — whose jobs are at risk after the controversial practice was banned last month — were champing at the bit to weigh in.

“This is outrageous and unacceptable,” Transport Workers Union Local 100 Administrative Vice President Alexander Kemp said.

She’s looks exactly what I thought, without even looking at her picture.

These insane females need to be locked up. The fatigue is real.

Why didn’t he stomp her into a little green pod of mush?

Wasn’t there some guy in Wisconsin who thought, for the brief few seconds of life left for him, that smacking someone with a skateboard was a good idea?

“Oh Stewball was a racehorse, and I wish he were mine.
He never drank water, he always drank wine.
His bridle was silver, his main it was gold.
And the worth of his saddle has never been told.”

"Horses do not do well in the NY city"

Of course Mamdani would ban the carriage rides that have been in the city for 150 years, instead of banning wild critters like this from the streets of NY.

This dumb woman needs to be barefoot, pregnant, and happy. Month after month her body chemistry sends surges of mood altering, mind altering chemicals through her body. The only natural way to deal this is nature's way: motherhood.

The United States Marine Corp has a Sargent named Reckless who served in the Korean War. He liked peanut butter sandwiches and beer. He was a mortar horse. That idiot needs her ass kicked and her parents are assholes. IMO

Happy Veterans Day to all who have, are, and will serve. Godspeed to all here and still on patrol.

They’re all crazy. Insane. For the past 50 years, liberals have been mainstreaming insanity and worshipping satan.

Joan Baez did a stellar version of this song while at a live concert decades ago.

True. I screwed that up and I forgot she was thought to have eaten a set of poker chips. The fact she was brought back to the US and retired with benefits. Put out to pasture as they say wasn’t an easy task. Marines adapt, improvise, and overcome. It’s a great story.
