Was what this tourist couple did considered assault? The King's Guard on Duty at Horse Guards 

Timestamps: 2:32 Armed police officer checks on the Horseman. 7:46 Four gorgeous police horses emerge from Horse Guards. 9:03 Was what this tourist couple did considered assault? The woman was grabbed by the arm by the other woman, and her husband pushed her away from the horse. 9:38 Tourist grabs the horse's reins, and the horse doesn't like it. Then the tourist asks permission to touch the horse, but he grabs the reins again. A tourist couple runs to tell him that there is a warning sign that says, "DO NOT TOUCH THE REINS." 21:23 The gatesman checks on the horsemen. 46:57 The King's Guards gently engage with a group of special people, allowing them to touch his magnificent horse. ACT of KINDNESS by the majestic King's Guard. 50:35 The King's Guard made this special man's day! Thank you for your service; huge respect! 51:41 The famous Changing of the Guard at 1 pm. 55:13 The horse nipped the tourist. 55:41 This horse doesn't like to be touched or for people to invade his personal space. He will nip anyone who doesn't respect it. 1:00:00 Horse tried to nip a tourist. 1:00:40 Another tourist and the horse tell her, "Go away!" 1:01:17 She is provoking the wrong King's horse. 1:05:52 The horse attempts to nip a tourist who didn't respect the famous sign, "BEWARE! Horse May Bite...!" Date filmed: Today, 19 June 2024. In my opinion, the King's Guard is in charge of the horse and managing their job exceedingly well. They know what to do according to their job descriptions. They observe everything, and their actions are always timely. We should be very careful not to disrespect them by interfering with their job. They are well-assisted by the CoH, soldiers and armed police officers. I highlight this situation because in the comments section, we can discuss it, respecting someone else's opinion and learning from it. My utmost respect to the King's Guard. Utmost respect to the tourists who are important to the UK economy.❤🇬🇧

Very kind of the trooper to engage the special group. Like this trooper, very chill and patient, actually both troopers this hour were kind and patient. Kudos to them!

Love the way the Chinese man bowed and thanked the trooper, very respectful and the young man at 50-33 time stamped

This horse (on the right from the videographer’s perspective, on the left from the horse guards looking out) looks so attentive, curious, relaxed and friendly. Love him! (Or her?)

NOT an assault. They were simply trying to help as he didn't understand, and grabbed the reins again. 3:21 - If that was an assault, then this would be attempted manslaughter, this guard allowing someone to touch and hang all over him! When it's not corrected, more and more people attempt it! Consistency is lacking. ~~~~~ 15:16 - She shouldn't have been allowed to manhandle that horse and hold it's head, not allowing it to move! 17:35 - Go away already!! What a selfish woman!! She's allowed to manhandle the horse yet again! ~~~~~ 40:59 - People need to quit molesting and kissing these poor horses! 🤮 The horses could get something from them!

As far as I’m concerned, anyone who I don’t know grabs me, that’s assault. If we’re not friends, don’t touch me other than what normally happens in a crowd. Just don’t.

The woman that they told not to touch the reins. She didn’t even touch the reins. She just petted the horse. Yes the guy did and shouldn’t have. The trooper told him. Think that couple should mind their own business. It wasn’t an assault 😮

WHY do these stupid people have to touch the horses?

Did I just see that silly, grinning Asian woman prop her arm on the troopers foot @ 3:19 ? I watched it 4 times and it looked like she did. Before that, I though she was going to shoo the other trooper out of the way.

Cute guard, looks new to me but maybe not. Beautiful horse, I will call her Elizabeth Taylor since I don't know her name (or his, maybe he is a gelding). I guess that name would be National Velvet after the movie which I think was made at Pinewood Studios near Uxbridge but not sure of that. I don't call that assault but just another nosy woman sticking in her two cents. Wonderful guards and police too, I like it when they are strong and there are a number as we know. Good men.

It’s not the tourist place to police what others are doing, but dang call them out when the Guard can’t see, or they all will be punished,maybe our society isn’t about following rules in other countries.

The old couple need to mind their own business. It's up to the trooper to speak up when he chooses.

Good on the couple, but they did not take any notice

agree

Where is time stamps

Assault, when they grabbed the people to move them away from the horses? I’m not sure about UK laws, but here it would be. They are not police or guards and have no right to be essentially policing the actions of others. It’s not as if those were their children, who parents might move away from the situation if the kids are getting out of hand.

In fact letting all the public touch the horses is animal cruelty and should be stopped immediately.

Why is this guard allowing someone to touch him this way! This is also why these tourists do rude things. If they allow it they are never going to stop! I can not believe he did not say anything, just so wrong on his part.

new guard?

No they took their time explaining protocol to the lady, very decent of them actually, American traits are not needed so best leave them out of your titles, this is England.
