If you punch a large animal, you have to expect to get charged

Family legend on my ex-wifes side was that her grandpa punched and killed a horse when drunk. No idea if that is true or not.

More fun fact, my ancestors came from Bohemia and were horse raisers and farms in central Texas.

Apparently this guy has no experience with horses. You really wanna piss off an animal of that size? One swift kick from a hoof and he’s not getting for a long time, if at all.

As a general rule, when the cavalry shows up, trouble is already there. (-:
Unwarranted? Not at all.
Overwhelming? Yeah, you betcha,
That’s kind of the point. Horses are really good at “overwhelming” a restive crowd without (usually) hurting or killing anyone. It takes a very rare and stupid sort of drunk hooligan to try to fight a horse (as here).
And, um… “cavalry”?
No.
If this were the cavalry, Mr. Drunk Hooligan would have ended up with a sabre up his tuchus.
This is more “ape herder” - like cow herder or “cowboy.”
Vaqueros, no?
Completely different intent. Herding, not killing.

Police horses in the UK are very much used as cavalry. They’re aiming to intimidate and push people back rather than killing them sure, but what else do you call it when a line of officers on horses charges into an unarmed crowd?
That said, don’t hit the horses. It’s not their choice to be there, and they can literally kick the shit out of you.
