Why is drinking in the street even allowed in London? I’m from a town outside London and it was banned here years ago. No wonder things are getting progressively worse when there are never any consequences for bad behaviour. Pitiful.
What is this Country coming to. That idiot of a man should have been arrested, for breach of the peace instead he was allowed to walk away. Four police there and nothing done to him. Justice it seems has flown out of the window. Disgraceful!!!
Clearly he was drunk. They normally let people give the horses a treat but this guy was going to get the horse as excitable as he was. The police were very patient and respectful to him but like many drunks, became confrontational. When he asked loudly, so, what are you going to do...I so wanted to hear..well, first we'll march you to the tower to sober up, then to the gallows to hang then be drawn and quartered, beheaded and your head placed on a spike..you ready?
Those police officers are very patient. In the US, he would have been in handcuffs the moment he got into their faces. At the very least, when he wouldn’t leave right away.
These officers are from the Department of Defense. They have no power to arrest but they can escort the idiots away from the military base (which does not include the sidewalk in front) or call in the MP's.
Guaranteed if he had made a move to hurt the horse, guard or dept of defence police he would have been brought down quick as a flash. Those guys know what they r doin and amazing at sussing who is a credible threat. The American police tend to go in heavy handed(warranted at times), act without thinking or use their guns more than necessary.
This one man had the attention of all the armed police officers while leaving the other guards on duty vulnerable to some degree..he created quite a distraction.
Well to be honest he also had a bottle in his hand and was going off at the MOD Officer like he was ready to start swinging, so with the big crowds at Horse Guard no chances were taken however there were at least 2 more inside still.
There are soldiers in the Arches, and in the guard house, so help is at hand.. I just wish the mounted police had followed him like that other dumb bloke was.
@@peterrollinson-lorimer You are greatly misinformed..Police officers in the U.S. have it hard now because leftists want all police to be disbanded but yet if something happens to them they are the first to call the police..American police officers are being ambushed daily..You need to research. American police officers show great restraint..
Shocking behaviour. Absolutely worst I have seen. Poor guards and horses should not have to put up with this. In my country police would have arrested him. Shame these officers do not have the power.
It occurs to me that guard house is a trap for them. If there would be a genuine threat there is nowhere for them to go boxed in as they are. Unless the back doors open if the horse pushes against them and I do not think that is the case.
@@barryeva8862 You would be surprised how many people who otherwise would try to rob or assault you will not do so if they surmise you might be packin'. Works quite well. I was born here in Texas almost 80 years ago and so far, so good.
That was embarrassing. He was a security risk because of the distraction he was causing. Move him on or arrest him, don't waste time and resources. If nothing else, arrest him for his choice of clothing!
😄 Well, I'm glad that isn't a law! But, yeah, he fed the horse a Polo! That warrants being spoken to. Following an arrest it takes a huge amount of time and resources to deal with them, like food, medical-care, transport, sometimes spare clothing etc. so if a conversation will get through to them, it's preferable.
@@rachelm7525 And herein lies the rub, the accompanying paperwork and additional time necessary. You do realise that there were four of the armed guards distracted by the incident? Quite aside for the lack of respect for authority that should be enforced, this shows a weakness that terrorists - for example - could exploit. He needed to be moved on by one officer at the very least.
Anyone 💯% to the armed officers dealing with this person who is obviously drunk. I am just so thankful that no one and the horse were not harmed in this person's very poor judgment.
I truly do not understand the UK police. Are they required to be door mats? This drunkard posed a threat to the horse and guard. At any moment he could have thrown the bottle or tried to grab the reins or in some way cause trouble for them. And what is the purpose of the police, I ask myself? To look tough and act humble.
And that is how this guy got himself arrested and got everyone's attention including the people walking past and even on RU-vid. I think that guy was mentally off.
No feeding the horses should be on the sign along with they may bite or kick. Whio knows what could be given to these animals in the guise of friendliness.
You're allowed to walk around England while drinking alcohol from an open container? This guy was drunk. You don't get arrested for stuff like that across the pond?
In a lot of cities in England having alcoholic drink is banned. If the police had arrested him he would probably been whining about his human rights and the wokie do-gooders would have had the police up for abuse or some such drivel.
Why wasn't this Dkhd not arrested? (& beat up in a cell), Sends a bad message to tourists who now have no respect for the Police. The horse didn't like it either.
The public shouldnt be allowed to feed the horses. They could be giving them anything even illegal drugs placed inside a treat which would be life threatening!! Anybody caught giving them anything should be arrested and the horse checked!! There are to many nutters about to be complacent!!
“Police Officers” you must be kidding me! Drinking an open bottle in a public place! He is obviously drunk and acting in a Disorderly manner. Yet he walks away to likely disturb other members of the public, when it should have been “Nipped at the Bud” and locked up! From a 34 veteran of the Police!
If he were here in Canada, he’d be on the ground getting cuffed! No police officer here would put up with a drunken tirade like these officers experienced. I’m shocked that anyone can be drunk in public AND carry a bottle of booze so they can keep drinking! WTF??
Why do our Police put up with such drunk idiots ,should have been arrested !

The level of rudeness that tourists who come to London these days demonstrate is appalling! Go home if you can’t respect British culture or traditions.
It does not matter who you are. Rules are there for good valid reasons. tourists or anyone else should learn to respect others, then they will get respect in return.
He could be feeding the horse poison, or something that would give an adverse reaction. Public drunkenness. Use landscape view. Portrait view is passé.
