Now there's a surprise! Who would have guessed that would happen?

If they can shoot black men with impunity, tying a rope to them is hardly likely to be frowned upon.

ACAB

Love Texas!

I'm horrified that this has become a thing again.

Lol what a surprise

I’m sure it was a fair trial. If I was the convicted and the judging party at the same time, I’d probably let myself off and thought that was fair.

I bet they're being courted for a local TV reality show.

Freedom for America.

What a surprise!

Stop breaking the law. Stop breaking the law. 17% of the population, 60% of the crime. Stop breaking the law.

In Trumps white supremacist America, this outcome is no big surprise.

Racist.

Of course they fucking do...

Sue the shite out of them as an apology counts for nothing. Then take civil legal action against the two policemen for inadequacies and for testing him in an inhuman way!

But according to the repetitive speech, these things only happen in Venezuela...

So all the moaners ignore that it was typical procedure to do this just cause its a black man, and then they go and claim it was the White police officers who are being racist lol.

This is disgusting

Why would the mounted police be charged with doing their job? You should be more worried with 13% of the population committing 50% of the crime.

Disgusting

What you want? You want him to ride like a princess on the horse? Only on a dirty mind, prejudged by racism will see this as an act of segregation from the past. It seems blacks are untouchables nowadays....

Shame

Really🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️🤦🏻‍♂️

😳⁉️‼️ NoWharButTexas‼️

What a great America is that. What if that was the other round.That make you wonder.

Shameful

Shock horror!!!

Well there’s a surprise .....not

NO SUPRISE THERE THEN

Just done in the good old far west method. Texans are like sharks they haven't evolved for the last millennium. That's all because of Trump's nice mannered tweets and sentiments he passes on.

I'm not in the least surprised. They have absolutely no shame.

If black officers did that to a white guy there wound be in jail before they could blink

no shit.... cause they are white?

Many parts of America are still in the Dark Ages. Some areas and aspects are the most repressive and regressive of any developed nation by a long shot. Yet many Americans still insist they are the “greatest”.

Sounds all white to me.

And if the situation had been reversed with black officers leading a white prisoner with a noose. Can you hear the screams from the far right? Not to mention the White House!

Typical racist scumbags. My family has been police officers with every generation and we are sickened by this. Seriously... this is racist abuse of a black man that is also mentally ill. Talk about prejudiced. No officer here in northern states would do this.

Revolting behaviour.

I wouldn't spit on their station if it was on fire. Repulsive to have a police force like that.

They should introduce this as an event in dressage competitions.

marioricciard18 what a country! what a world!

What could you expect differently in Texas?

They are mounted police. They do this with everyone they arrest. I don't like the tone of this story.

America has never quite got over the fact that strange fruit is no longer so readily available.

That was expected 🤦‍♂️

Color does not matter

They would have acted no differently had he been White. Should they have hog-tied him and thrown him onto the back of their horse instead?

Slavery times again.

Justice in Trumps new America

Because of course they do.

Nothing happens when they shoot somebody so not a surprise.

no offense but that would not happen in 21st Century USA. Officers would be in jail in a minute. Fakenews

That's awful

Truly shameful

Shock

Of course they did, a significant amount of Americans want to return to antebellum practices.

We already knew that will be the case. The whites are above the judicial system over there in that joke of a kontri

Shameful
