When Playing the Knock-Out Game with a Horse Is Never Okay

by Kim D.
Since Donald J. Trump was officially named the winner of the 2016 presidential elections, the protests have been ridiculous and have mainly occurred in liberal urban areas where Hillary Clinton received more votes.  One of these places would be Houston, TX. Texas is a predominantly red state; however, it is rampantly blue in major cities (Austin, San Antonio, and Dallas along with Houston).

Last Thursday night, protesters took to the streets in Houston to express "peaceful" dissent about the election. However, once a Black Lives Matter chick entered the scene, things went terribly wrong:
Sources say high-profile Black Lives Matter: Houston activist Sheree Dore was arrested along with four other protesters. The source adds that Dore was arrested and charged after punching a police horse in the face during the protest.
On Monday, Dore appeared in court to answer charges of interfering with a police animal.
The defense attorney is claiming the incident never happened and this charge is simply what we can expect now that Trump is president. Code: racist police will bring false charges against black folk. A Black Panther chimed in with his two cents:
"I seen horses trample on children. I seen anti protesters or pedestrians attack protesters and police just letting people do things to us," said Brian X with the Black Panthers.  
If found guilty, Dore could face up to 10 years in prison. It is doubtful this stiff a penalty will be applied. More likely, Dore will be fined and given a slap on the wrist - or punch in the shoulder. Question - how do the animal lovers feel about this?
