Thugs in uniforms, on horseback Threatening harassment of small group protesters in S Carolina

Thugs. Criminal harassment of peaceful protesters just
walking down a public sidewalk

Police thugs.

Nothing to see here: just cops on horseback, bicycles, foot, and vehicles harassing a small group of peaceful protesters in a Charleston, South Carolina neighborhood.

The cop on horseback deliberately rammed his horse into what? About a dozen protesters. He screamed for them to back up when they were pressed against a brick retaining wall. Where were they suppose to go?

Deliberate provocation. Unless there's something missing in the feed, this was stupid and reckless on the part of the cops.
