It would be nice if the officer could have just aimed to wing him but it’s not that easy. If this kid was trying to kill the K9, then the officer needed to stop him. A threat to the dog is a threat to the officer.

IMHO.

That stinking rat tried to kill a German Shepherd!?

What a gorgeous canine that is.

Anyway, I’m glad that lesser species is gone form this world.

fta... and a police K-9 has died of his injuries.
********************************
Idiots writing these stories must be grads from lame J schools.

I thought the dog had died from his injuries, until I read more of the article.

Should have said the thug was shot and died after attacking the policeman and the K-9.

...reciprocity of force...
***********************************
Doesn’t apply in self defense and is another ridiculous liberal mantra.

The UN, Obama, Kerry and France use that to complain about Israel’s responses to the Muslim attacks on Jews.

You may be correct. However, it does seem to me that deadly force is employed more often these days. It used to be common to see aggressive perps beat up, but that now just invites litigation.

Guess Darwin’s theory worked based on those photos.

You might want to avoid Tampa.

Alas, if you scan some of the comments: Apparently he’s managed to beat Darwin by having impregnated his girlfriend. Not surprisingly she was one of the arrestees in this incident.

We need a study of the cost to society of single motherhood or absentee fathers. I’m in favor of contraceptive implants for the daughters of welfare moms and paying a bonus to welfare moms who are sterilized permanently.

As deliberate as stealing a car, fleeing police, fighting the officer and trying to drown his dog?

Due process is a lawful act which the lawless ignore. If this were a rape survivor and not a cop would you be questioning it?

I am a rape survivor and that still doesn’t give me permission to kill someone who is fleeing from me.

I’d shoot my fleeing rapist in the back and not think twice about it. It’s the most moral decision. Where is he off to next?
