Chicago mayor's 'Census Cowboy' tortured his horse on a seven-mile highway 'protest run'—now it must be put down
LINK
A Chicago man who Mayor Lori Lightfoot had promoted as the "Census Cowboy" took his injured horse for a seven-mile run down the Dan Ryan Expressway on Monday. The horse, NuNu, is reported to be in critical condition and may need to be euthanized, according to CWB Chicago.
Assistant State's Attorney Kevin Deboni stated that Adam Hollingsworth's horse was not appropriately equipped with shoes when running on the pavement in a "Kids' Lives Matter" protest, severely injuring the horse's legs and feet.
The Democratic mayor's "cowboy" was lauded by the mainstream media for his "activism." NowThis took to Twitter, tweeting: "This ‘cowboy’ rode a horse down a busy highway in support of #KidsLivesMatter, a movement demanding greater investment in youth programs and other needs of children in Chicago."
Horse was not wearing a face mask. He survived his jaunt through the south side without being shot, but now he has to be put down.

Sad if true. The local news in Chicago said last night that the horse was improving and was expected to recover.

Law enforcement began trailing Hollingsworth on the expressway until the horse collapsed at around 9500 South Lafayette, Deboni said, adding that onlookers allegedly saw Hollingsworth kicking and whipping the horse to keep it galloping after it slowed down. Hollingsworth was then stopped and taken into custody. The horse was taken for observations by both the acting director of Chicago Animal Care & Control and another equine veterinarian. Deboni said both experts agreed the horse suffered “a great deal” due to its treatment, citing extreme dehydration, overheating and lacerations to its front legs that caused “profuse” bleeding. “The horse’s eyes were dilated to the point they looked like cartoon eyes,” Deboni said. Both experts said it would have been “virtually impossible” for anyone to not have realized the animal was injured and in distress, according to Deboni. The horse was given extensive medical treatment, but Deboni said it remains in critical condition and will never be able to be ridden again.

Surprised the cops didn't try to spin it out during the pursuit.

Hopefully he also adds cruelty to animals charges.

May want to edit your post.
But if that horse must die, he should have the book thrown at him.

One of the worst things for a horse is running on asphalt or concrete. The Amish were able to figure that out.

I’m blown away a cowboy from Chicago would not have known this.

This a-hole also said he would do it (torture his animal) again
