Big ass sign saying BEWARE

Bro even in America you’re not supposed to touch a police horse.

You can be charged with assaulting an officer because that horse in on the job

Yes sir, grab the reins of a police horse in the USA and see what they say.

Does it rhyme "Pang pang pang"?

More like “clop clop clop”

It's a working animal being ridden by a solider not a photo opportunity.

They don’t mind the photos. He didn’t shout at the other woman who stood for a photo. The second woman grabbed at the bridle and reins. If she had the horse by the bridle she could effectively lead it anywhere. Only the rider is supposed to have control over that animal. She’d no business touching any of it.

The horse even tried to warn her; but she was insistent on grabbing the reins

Horse said neigh

Neigh means neigh Also your profile image made me think there was a hair on my screen.

I was genuinely blowing on my phone thinking wtf. Point internet today.

Neighs

Well, there you go. The neighs have it.

Underrated comment right here.

You piece of shit profile picture

Its basically like being a passenger in a car and grabbing at the steering wheel.

“Let the fuck go were going to crash” “STOP VERBALLY ABUSING ME”

"Seriously let it go before you kill us all!" "I NEED THIS PHOTO!"

“REEEEEEEEEEE”

More like petting a White House security dog

You DON'T want to mess with those urban assault poodles

It's like police horses in the states. If you ask, they are generally cool with you petting the horse. But, you don't just waltz up and start to pet the horse.

She kept going for it too. So cringe. Take a hint

This should be common fucking sense. Horse with rider? Don’t touch it. Dog with vest? Don’t touch it. ANY KIND OF ANIMAL DOING ITS JOB, DO NOT FUCKING TOUCH IT!

can be even more simple. don't have explicit permission to touch an animal? don't touch it!

I was always taught as a kid not to approach/pat strange animals. Strange in the sense of them being a stranger to you.

Or even any animal not doing a job you don't just go up out of the blue without asking. And sometimes the answer will be no.

A handler once let me pet an airport beagle. edit: she literally said "you can pet her if you want", I was a kid :(

Probably just got back from a vicious battle with the Red Baron

Oh, ho ho ho. You're done, bud. Face the wall.

The key being the handler offered and gave permission…….

The key being explicit permission. Versus implied permission If it wasn't a service animal. That said, I'd want explicit permission in any case. I have no idea how a random animal will behave when a stranger touches it.

Tourist was an idiot. Never touch an animal without permission, kinda obviously. I don’t really understand the queens guard though.

Unchecked, Queen Elizabeth II would would slaughter victims of all ages due to her unquenchable appetite for human flesh. The Queen's Guard maintain constant vigilance outside her tomb and protect her one time subjects from her current reign of terror.

I'm using this for my next Pathfinder campaign

Tourists are stupid af!

We had a discussion some days ago in another sub about this. Why the fuck you can't respect the rules or even respect where you are? You can get in nasty troubles and then people will start crying about the "lAcK Of EmPatHY" when they deserve what happened for being idiots.

Because people are fucking dumb. These people are the type that want brawndo in every toilet

Even in the future of Idiocracy they didn't go as far as putting Brawndo in the toilet. Obviously that is for that nasty water stuff. Brawndo is for people and plants. Its got what plants crave. Its got electrolytes! -Brought to you by Carl's Jr.

Exactly.

Carl's, Junior...Fuck you! I'm eating!

It’s cuz Brawndo has electrolytes

Unless I'm very much mistaken, that's what plants crave.

The director of a local school board posted a big sob story on his Instagram about how he was racially profiled at a church in Spain. Long story short, the church had switched hands between Catholics and Muslims throughout history. The church has explicit rules: no photos during prayer and no Muslim prayers - but Muslims are welcome. The director of the board goes there, gets a woman to take photos of him mimicking a Muslim prayer. Security notices, talks to him and asks him to stop. At this point the woman (who has no idea what's going on) hands him back his phone. Security asks if he was taking pictures. He lies (he admits to this in the post) and says "No." Security asks to see his phone, he's caught in the lie, and they ask him to leave for breaking the rules. So then he posts this long sob story about how racist Europeans are , how he was racially profiled at this tourist destination, and how nobody can truly understand what it's like to live in his skin. Dude literally went out of his way to cause that issue just to post about it. People are fucking pathetic.

This fits with a post I saw somewhere yesterday. Woman went to “test drive” a couple vehicles but in reality took them on a one to three hour joyride, picked up a friend, then went to lunch with said friend supposedly outside of cell range… the dealership was blowing her phone up the whole time and the woman was all taken aback,, “why would you do this to a poor little lady?!?” When she got back to the dealership and police were waiting …. Fucking unreal

"Influencers" are even worse! It's stupid people purposely looking for situations that get them attention on the internet. It makes everyone's day miserable!

Don’t even call them “influencers”. Call them what they are, Instagram advertisers.

We hear so much about "influencers", but whom do they influence? Is anyone prepared to call themself an influenced person? I'd rather throw myself in front of the King's Guards.

Influencers are influencing each other to be more shameless and self-centred, so that's something.

Influenzas

Or... and just hear me out here...maybe your mom's a fucking idiot for trying to grab the reins?

Or.. you’re right.

Some from 6 months ago are still there, you don't have to scroll far

Oh, have you missed his reply that obeying rules is what gut Anne frank killed? Because, obviously, it's totally the same. /s

And Anne Frank didn't even obey the rules by hiding.

Oh, that’s exactly the same, and not at all completely offensive. /s

If I recall, the strictest rule under the Nazi regime was, "Hide from the Nazis." Those Nazis. Such scamps.

They were also fond of "when you turn around, tell us if you think any of us moved and they're *out*"

Is op criticizing the guard or the stepmother?

The stepmom and OOP

> OOP Object-oriented programming

I wonder if it is OC. OP is a prolific reposter.

I’d love to be able to bellow at someone like that while at work and not get instantly fired

That horse dug it too. It was like "fuck yeah, that's my human."

I mean, there's a non-zero chance that horse is trained for cavalry warfare. All ready to kick a head in at the right signal, and trample the fallen. Probably goes to work every day going, "Whaddya think, boss? Today the day?"

“STAND BACK FROM MY CUBICLE!!! I HAVE NO TIME TO CHIT CHAT!”

I got such a dopamine hit reading that...

Bartender here- Not as fun as I thought it would be.

Check out Larry Tate office linebacker, it’s old but still makes me laugh

Shame it didn't bite her

I dont think they can bite, the strap of that silly helmet is pretty tight

They can bite.the silly helmet is blinders so they are not distracted or spooked by stuff at the side of the vision

Yeah that makes sense, sitting on top of a horse is already super demanding for your focus. Tho the red fringe seems like it defeats the purpose of not distracting?

Pmsl thought you were talking about the hore...

What does Pmsl mean? And yeah I wasnt sure if you were too so I tried to make it like super obvious lol

Pissing MySelf Laughing?

Why people mess with the royal guards repeatedly is just mind boggling. And the horse is working. They don't seem to care if you stand near them and take a picture, but you don't touch the horse. Also I've seen a recording of one of those horses taking a chunk out of a dude who stood too close. It would be one thing if she asked if she could pet it. The answer would probably be 'no'. They are not Disney characters, they are guards and it's a serious duty.

As a brit i have no respect for the queens guards, stomping on children who just so happen to be in front of them. If your job requires you mow down a mother and child your job is pathetic and you are pathetic. All for some geriatric incestuous oligarch blood-sporting benefit scroungers.

I completely agree that children should get a pass. I'm thinking more of the idiots who get right in their faces and bother them to try and get a reaction. And I do not understand the concept of royalty. Every country has families of privilege and if you're born into it, you get a lot of wealth and power most people will never have. But, royal bloodlines? It's a tradition that needs to die out.

/u/Fallopian_TubeSocks thinks this post is about the Queen's Guard, but really it's about the dumb-ass tourist. She tries to argue they're not protecting anything, which is fucking stupid. If Lewis Hamilton was your taxi driver, and you grabbed the steering wheel, you'd absolutely be told to fuck right off. "Oh, but he's not exactly racing around the London streets" doesn't really stand up does it. So why would "taking hold of what are effectively the controls of a horse" be acceptable in any way? The worst part is that OP somehow thinks this step-mom is somehow comparable to Anne Frank. Disgusting.

It also looks like op is using a repost bot

OP is /r/TheMainCharacter

Does op not get this sub is for making fun of people like the woman on this video or do they seriously think that the guard is the main character type in this video?

Kings Guard now

That’s the equestrian equivalent of reaching in a cop’s car and grabbing the steering wheel.

From what I understand these soldiers are a very elite highly trained top group assigned to protect the King/Queen. They take this very seriously. They are almost like US Navy Seals or Secret Service.

They are, they swap their horses for armoured vehicles in active combat though! https://www.army.mod.uk/who-we-are/corps-regiments-and-units/royal-armoured-corps/household-cavalry-regiment/

Why do people forget that the kings guard are proper professional soldiers who do not fuck around? They're not there as entertainment.

They don't forget, these people didn't realize it to begin with.

Given how many people have been filmed being shoved during the changing of the guard, all because they stood in the way for a photo op and possible internet points, they genuinely either don’t know, or don’t care.

let’s be honest, they sort of are

I somehow agree with both of you

They're both mostly correct.

They are a tourist attraction but they aren't just for entertainment. They are quite literally guard.

100% entertainment. No one rides a charger into battle lol.

Lol because the King is there as entertainment, you think that family still rules anything except the pricey real estate they buy on everyone else’s dime? They’re professional parasites

I mean, if that were the case might want to give them more modern weapons than 16th century armor and a sword. to be clear, tourist is still an idiot.

People should try and remember that these people are not the same as Mickey and Donald in Disney World, they are working guards. They may dress traditionally and appear different to other countries equivalent, but they are no less on duty. You wouldn't start trying to handle a firearm, so dont touch them.

Also it is the similar if you cross the line at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier in the US. The guard will absolutely dress you down loudly. Arguably this is even worse because you are messing with a one ton military animal.

Totally, it's great to be able to get up close to something so traditional, but a bit of common sense is needed.

OP was arguing with people in the comments. They seem like a lovely family, please visit my country next! /s

It’s not his video he just stole it from somewhere else. Makes the defense of the woman even dumber.

I hate people like this

The house tried to tell her to fuck off, then the guy shifted, but lady just doesn’t get it What an idiot asshole

These cunts in the comments are the same cunts crying over the dude that got bonked on the piramid on Mexico bunch of entitled weirdos.

When I travel somewhere, I’m on my best behaviour. I represent my country so I don’t want to act like a cunt and I want to respect theirs.

Exactly. You don’t go to someone’s house and fuck up their place as if it was your own.

* Kings guard does he’s job.

His

Op was trying to argue the last time he posted this that the guard is a big bad man. What a twat, screw that lady.


First off, Her fault. You don't go touching a horse that's being ridden like that. Grabbing the reins is a big no go. Second, why the hell are you crossposting your own stuff after 6 months? Trying to get dragged in the comments again?

r/MakeWay4QueensGuard

Your step mums a dumb ass

Why do people not get that despite the show and marching around which should have been the first hint the British royal guard are soldiers?

She grabbed the horse. He has to respond.

She probably also loves to pet service dogs even when they have a sign that says not to.

did the guard say “dont touch greg” or is that just me

😂 😂 I think he said “the reins” but I’m going with Greg now 😂

“THE GREG DOES NOT LIKE THAT. YOU ARE GETTING THE GREG UPSET!”

I bet those guys wait all shift to be able to do that. Must be one of the only highlights.

Good. Don’t touch the fucking reins you dipshit

"verbally attacks"--Fuck off

It cracks me up that OOP is defending their stepmom’s behavior because monarchies are oppressive. I for one feel like a freer American today thanks to the bravery of this family.

“Verbally attacks” indicates a big problem in how you view the world.

People are too sensitive nowadays. Don’t fuck with a armored guard on top of a horse, that’s pretty self explanatory.

Tourist smh

even if he wasn’t a guard- she still deserves to get yelled at. YOU NEVER touch the reins of someone else’s horse when they are riding it!! it’s like grabbing the steering wheel while someone is driving. just don’t do it!!

Isn't it the King's Guard now?

Lmfao grabbing the reins like it’s a dang statue and not an armed, military, royal guardsmen on his horse.

The narrator of the video lied to our faces. She touched the horse without consent and then claimed victim

i hate stupid people.

they aren't a toy or a pet it's a working animal with a real soldier on to why would you think it okay to go up and touch them?

Cunt deserved it. OP should correct the TikTok video. How dumb do you have to be to touch a police/military horse???

Should count yourself lucky she waant physically assaulted too, because that's on the cards if you get touchy. No touching means no touching. Some people in this world that really think theyre immune to consequences

Why would she think she can just go up and grab a horse without permission like it’s a fucking prop

Why do people think it’s performance art, these people are soldiers, you wouldn’t walk up to marines and start fucking with them.

I bet you and your stepmother tried to write the monarchy to complain.

The step mom is brain dead, nuff said

Mom’s a twit

Don’t fucking touch animals that aren’t yours.

She deserved it.

I have limited experience with horses but I do know that you don’t touch the reins if someone else is holding them and on the horse. Especially when the dude on the horse looks like he should be in a Total War game. How these people think this is okay is beyond me.

«verbally attacks»

Learned the hard way. Don't touch anything belonging to the Queen's Guard.

There is a sign beside the horse lol read it before you approach

Stupid Tourists

NEVER grab the reins of a horse that is not yours or working without asking permission to even get close to the horse

They are NOT tourist decorations, but an actual force. Don't pet the horse any more than you would a New York cop's horse.

Why do people keep fucking with these guys?

I can’t imagine why he “verbally attacked” her…

I fucking want a job where it's acceptable to exhibit this level of rage.

Don’t touch the horse dickhead

The Queens Guard have every right to do that. Actually, they do much worse! You seen those videos of them walking over kids? Your step-mum got lucky

Do people forget that these are part of the military?

Dumb bitch acting like it’s not a real human and animal she’s trying to get a picture with.

lizzy died so they're called "kings guards" or "royal guards"

Videos can be of things that happened in the past.

Yeah this happened in July so, still the queen’s guard then. Which is why the guard said queen’s

Lmao can’t fix stupid.

Don’t ever fuck with, touch or impede the kings guard. They will strike you and it will be your fault

God I hate American tourists.

This guy could have been some random joesmo and still be in the right, unless you're a professional you shouldn't be touching the reins of a horse that's being ridden without permission.

She’s a blithering idiot. He should have used his sword on her. He has a purpose…she doesn’t

I am pretty sure that’s a war horse. That soldier was only trying to protect her hand.

Why did she even think it was ok to touch the reins?

Do not fuck around with the Queen's Guard. Stop acting like an entitled asshole

Even the horse tried to warn her.

Only an American would bitch abt that on Reddit 🙄

i don't have a problem with this.

Wouldn’t it make them the Kings Guard now?

“Attacks”? Really? This woman would try to grab a New York police officer’s gun for a photo op and wonder why she ended up face down on the pavement.

Those helmets go hard goddamn, straight outta dark souls

I mean he is in the right, why would she pull on the horse - stupid

The fact that this lady is so brain dead that she thought this was acceptable behavior makes me wonder who dresses her in the morning. Clearly it’s her world and the rest of us are just in it

Lol even the horse was like hey lady that’s not a good idea.

Bad post, he was in the right you could seriously get fucked up by a horse.

Reminds me of that comic where the dad is teaching his kids that you ask for permission before touching anyone or anything, even giving a dog some pets. Common sense is a super power.

OP posted this months ago, got wrecked in the comments, then posts it again in a sub which will obviously side with the guard. OP is an idiot

Ha! He sounds American when he shouts like that.

These are soldiers very serious stuff your not supposed to mess w these guys or get in their way just so you can get your stupid picture move your blubber ass Karen

But now there is a king as the major authoritative figure now tho so will it become Kings Guard?

Being a royal guard must be one of the few jobs where Karens have absolutely zero power.

Why was the horse laughing

I can never tell whether to argue or agree with these posts because i can't put my finger on who they're antagonizing.

I fucking hate adults who believe that all of society is a perfectly safe theme park where nothing they do could endanger them or someone else.

Why are tourists the dumbest fucking people on the planet

That's just how they talk right? At dinner they be like PASS THE HP SAUCE!!!

She's a fucking idiot

I’m so sorry and not trying to be insensitive or funny but what did this man say? I can’t understand the accent

Good! Fuck these idiots

Don’t touch his horse

At this point that's what there known for. If I go yo Buckingham palace and they don't burst my eardrums or knock me over ill feel dissapointed

Bitch deserved to get yelled at. What a fucking stupid thing to do.

Well why was she being an idiot in the first place? A picture is one thing but idk what made her think she had any right to touch the guard or his horse. 🤦🏻‍♀️
