Eric,
OK...you're right. I took a "specific case" and personalized it.
There's no reason to "hurt" a horse. Heck, there's only about four seconds to get the message across. Beyond that, my guess is that they missed the connection with their action, and the human's reaction.
Just my 2 pennies worth.
