Bull Revolt
The beginning
Load Full StoryNext ChapterSpeeches was all Toromaniac used to fuel the revolution he started less than 2 days ago. A bull who grew up around racist ponies was now the leader of the current violent movement sweeping Equestria by storm.
Appleloosa crumbled in the first day due to the low security and the natives they were surrounded by. 36 casualties were confirmed later by Equestrian guards who arrived a bit too late due to the vagueness of the call they got. There were no suspects in the area...until they questioned the buffalo tribe near the massacre. Fighting broke out between the two sides but did not last long due to the overwhelming strength of the Equestrian military. 5 guards lay dead and 16 were injured but the buffalo took a larger toll: 32 dead and 29 severely injured.
The buffalo were forced to surrender and give up the land their ancestors have had for centuries. It is unknown why the buffalo attacked other than the fact of the long-standing dispute that a couple measly pies wouldn't be able to dissolve. Toromaniac used this opportunity to start the revolt now known as: "The Bull Revolution". Ponies are considering the day of the buffalo attack the first day in the revolution. In the second day not much happened other than the fact that Appleloosa was overrun by Bulls, Buffalo, Donkeys, and a few ponies who held signs declaring to stop the discrimination in Equestria for the minority groups. Celestia decided it was best to send 500 guards to Appleloosa to make sure nothing would occur (which thankfully nothing did). The sheriff of Appleloosa (Sheriff Silverstar) proposed a law in order to stop the segregation between ponies and buffalo which was a huge factor in their dispute.
It seemed the bull revolution wouldn't be as much of a revolution as ponies thought it would be... until the movement reached Baltimare.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2 km away was the town hall of Baltimare and the "Bull Lives Matter" movement approached the mayor's work building with signs and boards ready to protest the extreme segregation of ponies and non-ponies. Griffons and even ponies were in on the march to stop what was happening in all the different shops around them.
Suddenly, turning the corner of Hoof St. they heard chanting, shouting, and hollering; a counter protest was taking place in front of them, blocking the path to the town hall. The BLM protesters had no choice but to confront the rival protest face-to-face. Guards were immediately sent to patrol the area. When the first group of guards arrived at the scene, fighting broke out between the two sides so they intervened in anyway they could. Before the guards could even utter a word helmets started flying and being ripped off from their heads and were being beaten senseless by both groups.
It wasn't long before the BLM movement started to slowly advance across the street as ponies fell to the ground in 10 seconds flat. Guards started arriving and got in between the BLM protesters and the counter protesters. Before anyone realized it guards started spearing the BLM protesters. The guards took the majority's side and defended them.
The death toll reached up to the 20's in both sides. Everyone started running back to their homes as blood splashed onto the streets. The conflict was 20 minutes long and was brutal with over 40 arrested and over 50 dead.
This was the spark that ignited the REAL revolution everypony was afraid of.
