“...a pair of pit bulls wandering loose through a residential neighborhood...”

And when those same dogs mauled and killed another dog, or a toddler, they’d be yelling, “Dem Cops ain’t protectin’ us!”

So torn on this issue. Hope I never have to shoot a domestic dog. Took out a woodchuck with a shovel, once. But he had it comin’!

>> a pair of pit bulls wandering loose through a residential neighborhood

Give this officer a citation for a job well done!

While they’re at it, maybe the cops could find and plug the irresponsible bastards that let their killer mutts run loose in a residential neighborhood. That would help solve the long term problem.

Guess Zuckerberg thinks that America doesn’t hate cops enough. But I’ll bet Zuck’s bodyguards are armed.

A few weeks back I was helping a friend at an estate sale. I was out in the backyard spraying for wasps. I could hear some dogs behind the fence in the neighbors back yard jumping on the fence. I did not think anything of it until they broke through the fence and all three came at me. I turned and sprayed each of them in the face with the wasp spray. That stopped them dead in their tracks. I think it was just the shock of the liquid hitting them, they were all pit bull mixes but one was all pit bull. That one was literally licking his lips. He started to come at me and the other ones were right behind him. I was out of spray and threw the can behind them. They went after the can for about two seconds then turned back to me. I’ve been in some interesting situations and don’t scare easily. Plus I’m all muscle and could have maybe handled one dog but these three put the primal fear in me. I knew I could not run as the leader of the pack charged at me then backed up then charged close. That’s when I pulled out my .380 and put a round right in front of his front paws in to the ground. He turned and ran back to the fence and the other two followed. This gave me time to get in the back door and close a burglar bar gate. By then they had turned around, ran across the yard and we’re trying to get at me through the gate. Those animals would have done a great deal of damage to me if they had got a hold of me.

I’ve never experienced anything like that. The cops and animal control were called and they all told me they would have shot these particular dogs and I was in my legal rights to have killed them all. The animal control lady was looking over an 8ft fence at these dogs and the full bloodied pit was jumping so high at her it’s head was popping over the top of the fence.

After that experience and after listening to the animal control gals stories and the stories from the cops I fault nobody that puts a round in to this particular devoid type of animal.

I guess enlisting the aid of animal control is obsolete.

Rallying under the banner of Freeze Don’t Shoot,

Sounds like the same old anti-cop agitators.

the 22-second clip shows him pointing his gun at a pair of pit bulls wandering loose through a residential neighborhood. After making a series of apparent kissing noises to get the attention of one of the dogs, Maximus, Dupre opens fire on the animal, shooting him three times...

I'd call that a good shoot. Anyone who allows their pit bulls OF ANY AGE to wander through a neighborhood gets what they get. In this case, the pit bull being shot. Personally, I've no use for pit bulls. They're dangerous animals, any responsible individual would never allow them around small children, and would keep the damn' things locked up.

Cesar Milan once did a show where he trained postmen. Wish he would do that for police.

Anyone celebrating that video is a sick piece of trash.

That was not a justified dog killing! That officer was not being threatened.
