I think if somebody came on my property and shot my dog I’d have a tought time restraining myself from shooting them, in uniform or not.

Someday someone is going to use that Sheriff’s reasoning as justification.

“Well, he shot my dog. It was possible he was a rogue cop intent on shooting me, so I....”

The sign I have posted at my gate says; IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A PERSONAL INVITATION FROM THE PROPERTY OWNER.
IF YOU DO NOT HAVE A SIGNED, VALID WARRANT.
IF YOU ONLY THINK YOU HAVE THE RIGHT ADDRESS.
TURN AROUND AND GET OUT NOW.
IF YOU SHOOT MY DOGS OR LIVESTOCK; I WILL SHOOT, YOU AND I SHOOT TO KILL.
Don’t care what the law says any more. I am to tired to run, to poor to go to court, and to old to take a beating so I will shoot the offender and go to prison.
Better health care than I have had in my entire life, 3 meals a day that I don’t have to prepare, and at my age probably a job in the prison library. A lot of days it just don’t sound to bad.

That's how they felt at Ruby Ridge.

And I'd acquit you if I was on the jury.

"Hitcho shot and killed Freemansburg police Officer Robert Lasso last August when Lasso responded to a disturbance call. Investigators say Hitcho shot Lasso in the head while the officer was trying to fend off Hitcho’s dogs."

Lasso jumped a fence, enter the property w/o a warrent or exegent circumstances and his supervisor ordered him to taze the dogs before Hitcho fired.
