It eats "Haaaaaaayyyy"

Meanwhile, the Cherwell http://www.cherwell.org/?id=3228 , a student newspaper at Oxford, reports a student there is accused of being coarse--to a horse, of course:

"A student at Balliol College was arrested and detained in custody for a night after he verbally abused a police horse. . . . [Steve] Brown was fined for "causing harassment, harm or distress," after he repeatedly called the officer's horse "gay." . . . Brown inquired, "How do you feel about your horse being gay?" of one of the policemen, stating that his colleague's was clearly not gay. After repeated comments on the sexuality of his horse, and despite warnings from the policeman about his behaviour, Brown's offer of an apology to the horse was rejected and he was handcuffed and taken by the officers to the police station. . . . The [police] spokesman also said that the "homophobic comments" were not only offensive to the policeman and his horse, but any members of the general public in the area."
