The pigs use horses in parades and demonstrations so they can't get overrun and trampled by a crowd. (Heh, pigs on horses. :lol: )

they use horses because they are big and fucking scary. if youre having a sit-down you can easily get trampled by them so they use horses to break them up. also, its easy to encircle a group of people and trap them with horses - see: [email protected] last year. one way to stop them is to roll marbles under their feet, because they'll stop but there is the risk of hurting the horse. another way is to just very forcefully push the horses nose/muzzle/whatever away from you, the way that theyre trained theyll follow your lead and turn in that direction. cons: you have to get really close to them, and again, theyre fucking frightening. another con is that the copper on board will most likely have a baton and will try and whack you away...
