For the same reason that a horse is not capable of experiencing slavery, because that is a thing done to humans by other humans and which hurts people in human ways.

Or my complaint is that it is trivializing the depth of suffering that racism causes in society by suggesting that it equates to being mean to horses.

Causing pain and distress to horses is bad and wrong. Forcing horses to charge people and bringing them into this kind of situation without a real and pressing need is wrong and ultimately the reason that particular horse bolted and trampled someone. The distress of the horse, any injuries suffered by the cop and the person trampled all squarely rest on the shoulders of the police force.

if a horse is being used as an offensive weapon then tbh I have a hard time seeing why it's immoral to harm it in an attempt to prevent it from hurting yourself or others, it's self defence and a horse's life is less valuable than a human's for p much exactly the same reasons that it's not capable of comprehending that it's being used as a tool of oppression like I don't think it would be wrong to kick a police dog (or any dog for that matter) that's mauling someone. even though we all wish it hadn't been trained to maul people, that doesn't help in the here and now while it's trying to rip someone's face off

Blinkers are normally to specifically stop it from seeing anything other than where it's going. Because horses are barely controlled bundles of insanity at the best of times and they panic if they see things in their peripheral vision.

It'll most likely go down as "Inciting a child under 13 to engage in sexual activity".

Race is a myth, there's very little to support it and every time you try to formalize it you end up with the worst kinds of loving idiocy, like South Africa using the pencil test to find out who's a 'non-white' or declaring that Japanese people are actually white because they're Some philosophers like Quayshawn Spencer would argue that it's a socially useful one in some cases though, like logging discrimination in employment or covid deaths, perhaps similar to some conceptions of gender with its general correlation to sex, and argues for radical racial pluralism.

I agree though, the groups do very little about the systemic protection of children, and they don't know enough about the law to do it in such a way that helps convict anyone. It's possible that they create a social fear so that some would be child abusers don't contact kids on the internet but that sounds like individual solutions to social problems given the suspected volume of grooming, basically about as useful as Tommy Robinson trying to mistrial nonce cases to own the nonces.

As a "white troop" that statement makes me loving rage, I loving hate it when absolute weasels try to use my job as leverage like we actually give a gently caress, to be honest BAME and LGBTQ+ issues are actually pretty high on agendas within the military and as an organisation we are making great strides.

Guavanaut posted:That's probably why the undercover picked 12, and the pedo hunter group didn't. Nah, I picked the "Under 13" because I skim-read the post and I'd written a report for a guy convicted of it this week so it was fresh in mind. "Section 10: Causing or inciting a child to engage in sexual activity The elements of the offence are: (A) aged 18 or over intentionally causes or incites another person (B) to engage in an activity the activity is sexual, and either (B) is under 16 and (A) does not reasonably believe that B is 16 or over, or (B) is under 13." This would cover the 16 and under.

I assume they pick 12 to avoid the brainmaster defence that they secretly knew that the undercover was over 16, because they could tell by some of the pixels. Also I assume (for better or worse in different cases) that the undercovers know what evidence they'd need for an incitement charge, whereas the pedo hunters seem not to.
