The police officer injured after falling off her horse at yesterday’s Black Lives Matter protest suffered a broken collar bone, broken ribs and a collapsed lung, MailOnline can reveal. The mounted officer is still receiving treatment in hospital but is likely to be off duty for four months while she recovers, the Metropolitan Police Federation revealed. She was flung violently into traffic lights outside Downing Street in central London after a protester hurled a bike and other missiles at her horse, causing the animal to bolt riderless back down Whitehall. Federation Chairman Ken Marsh the officer thrown from the horse is 'a hero'.

What UK police brutality do they mean?

Park of the UK’s whole policing shtick is not even being armed.

THIS is the real face of BLM. All those idiots marching to and fro like angry penguins need to think about who it is they claim to support.
Now, even our NFL has
drank the Koolaid, blissfully ignorant of how cruel and inhuman this organization can be.

They’re talking about our police brutality here in the US.

Which is a perfectly good reason to riot in the UK, doncha know.

Er, they weren’t all “imported.” Most of them, from what was visible of them, appeared to be native Brits. They have a vicious left wing white population in the UK, egged on by a vicious left wing press.

One of their TV or political personalities tweeted that she urged making a loop of the horrifying video of the officer’s horse bolting and the cop getting thrown against a traffic light and onto the pavement and broadcasting it constantly with suitably amusing music in the background.

This dimwit “personality” appeared to be a native born white British woman, no doubt the product of a “good” university, well off, etc. - the usual profile, in other words. And vicious and hate filled as the day is long.

The horse later ran down a protestor. Are there policing problems in England? What does George Floyd or any of the other American cases have to do with London or the UK?

The officers injuries are not minor. They are life altering.

They want to close the beaches in the UK because too many are there and the virus may spread. In the mean time, London streets are flooded with protesters.

“Physically incapable women have no business on horses doing police work.”

This male hasn’t been thrown from a horse yet, but I’ve sure come close and no one has attacked me while I was riding. It really sucks to be on 1200 lbs of terrified muscle - THAT much I know! I have a lot of sympathy for her.

She wasn’t physically incapable. The mob was throwing bottles and even a bicycle at the mounted police, one hit her horse and it bolted. She seems to have been at the end of a wedge formation and thus would have been an easy target. Unfortunately the horse bolted into a traffic signal, where she appears to have been swept off, with the impact throwing her against a light standard and onto the ground.

Grow up, incel.

Thanks for the advice - but you can't even tell a d**k from a c**t, so I won't take it.

Grown ups understand the physical differences between boys and girls, and logically conclude that women are not physically suited for fields like police work and warfighting... because they *really* just pathetically suck at it.

Don't ask how I know.

Only modernists and idiots, which the world is full of, think men and women are alike hence equally suited to handle situations violent martial encounters.

Why don’t you see how long you stay on a terrified horse that has grabbed the bit between its teeth and is in a full on flight or fright mode? Oh and be sure the horse is surrounded by attackers while you are at it.
