There are approximately 78.2 million dogs in the United States. Unfortunately some are bound to be accidentally, or deliberately if necessary, killed by the police. Millions of dogs, however, are put do death each year because they are unwanted or abandoned by their owners.
Yup, i wish the best of luck to any fuckwit (badge or not) with a drawn weapon firing it at a family member on my property.
The cops often help in the rescue of dogs that are in trouble, such as falling off of bridges or piers into water, pets that are lost, etc., but all we're hearing about in this thread are a few casualties. A cop in the story below has rescued dogs from drowning several times, in NYC. Police Rescue Dog from Hudson River - DNAinfo.com New York
That's a pretty neat article to read, garrison. In the meantime, I'm buying life insurance for my dog.
im so mad i cant see straight, the thing that pisses me off the most is that 'we the people' continue to be passive and apathetic for the most part, thats scary and sad, because what the fuck is it going to take? also anyone really suprised that spineless pigs are spineless? i really really fucking doubt %99.9 of those incidents warranted a bullet, fucking trigger happy narrow minded pieces of shit
They're human beings alright, but they are also scum. Seriously though, if someone started taking out sick fucks like that, I'd applaud them.
not in my eyes i see them as less then human. human being> a cop who shoots a dog, when its clearly not self defence
I think they're probably classified as human (biologically), but they don't deserve human rights. We can agree to disagree though.
Maybe if these asshats quit walking into/breaking into peoples homes, the family dog wont react in such a way (unknown intruder) and the cop wont have a "reason" to kill it in the first place.
Catz rule! ...but I'm partial to dogs as well. Dogs can be great pets, but unfortunatly, many abuse their trusting nature and train them to be anything but docile. Quite the few junkies around here keep dogs. Big dogs. Poor dogs. For their own protection I guess, having a pooch with a vicious temper and sharp teeth is better than not if a vagrant. And such dogs will get put down as their owner inevitably get caught in some crime or another and is put in jail with no-one to care for their dog. It is a tragedy. The dogs are innocent victims that pay with their life for their owners stupidity. It all make me sad really. Especially when it comes to dogs who got this potential to be such loving beings. All they really want is to chase ass and lick faces. It takes a damaged human to make a damaged dog.
I wonder if he had a "Beware of Dog" sign on the gate or property. If so, then the cops are to blame. If not, it's a tough call. When you have a guard dog like that, the risk of it being hurt or killed is going to be higher than that of less dangerous pets.
Highmtn skier, did you get the link I posted in the anti cop thread of the article from a county over from me? Chocolate lab killers. http://www.policemisconduct.net/police-shoot-dog-police-dept-says-case-closed/ [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JOlqqeDydZ4[/ame] Here's another video of a pussy ass bitch cop shooting a corgi dog inside of the cage. what a fuckin pussy. damnit, so many people on this planet lack critical thinking and are completely inept
