.... LAPD does have a Mounted unit consisting of 35 units. They are based in the Ahmanson Equestrian Facility. LA area is huge and they just can't be everywhere at once. Deployment takes time.
mounted, hell. don’t risk the horses.
get out there in the armored vehicles. crack some damn skulls.
you know, lapd, act like you’re going after a single white guy who may have a tenth of an ounce of pot in his house.
