Even asleep, a one ton animal is hard to move



And yet, flipping cop cars is a common and well-documented pastime among rioters


Cars don’t try to get away when you go to flip them. They also can’t widen their stance and counter your effort to flip them. Cows do both of those things. Cows don’t sleep standing up, so they definitely know when you are approaching and most will be at least walking away long before you get to them.


Cop cars are lighter than cows.


What cop car weighs 500 - 1800lbs? Even a Smart Car or VW bug (lightest “cars” I can think of that I’ve seen used as a police car) weighs double what an average cow weighs.


You also only get one shot at the cow
