Do you realize your horse is gay?

'Future scholars might refer to it as the case of the gay horse. In May of last year, Sam Brown, an Oxford student out celebrating the end of his finals, decided to address a mounted police officer. "Do you realise your horse is gay?" he asked. Juvenile prattle, you might think. But that was not the verdict of the police. Two squad cars arrived, disgorging a group of officers who promptly arrested Brown under Section 5 of the the Public Order Act, for making homophobic remarks. He spent a night in the cells and was fined £80 - which he refused to pay. Last week the Crown Prosecution Service finally dropped the charges against him, admitting they had insufficient evidence to show that the accused was "disorderly".'
