If these police are so cowardly that they would shoot a dog that small, they really need to find a nice desk job answering phones in a call center. The only weapon they should be allowed to carry is a loud whistle.
Ig there was even a smidgen of justice in this country, they would be paying about half of the income from that job to that family for quite some time.
For people in nice suburban neighborhoods reading this, this is why people in “those neighborhoods” never see nothin’ and don’t cooperate with the police. Absolutely nothing good for can come for them by doing so and there might be entire worlds of trouble instead. Seriously, why should they? So they can be “good citizens” and get their property ransacked and their dogs shot?
There was an interesting article in the WaPost recently where police are getting rubber stamp warrants in DC to the point where any supposed “rights” that the residents have are a complete, bogus illusion. It takes months to years of fighting with the government to get their homes repaired after a “whoops, sorry” SWAT entry, and they never even say “whoops, sorry”. On top of that, these are not wealthy people, and sometimes their doors are broken for months, just wonderful in a bad neighborhood.
Small dog? A so-called “American Bulldog”? Another version of pit-bull terrier. It is not a “small” dog. Even the guy says so, and the adult pix of the dog show a large dog. Large PBT type dog.
