Could be. I do know that my husband wouldn’t let anyone but himself put down one of our animals but that’s all I was basing my statement on.

F ing Subaru drivers.
As a trucker who drives over 100,000 miles per year, Subarus are the worst that I encounter daily. Their driving habits match their Obama and Sanders stickers.

It was open range.
The bull had legal right to be there.
If they didn’t want him there they have to erect a fence to keep him off the road.
A lot of people don’t get that.

The bull was aggressive, causing an accident.Definitely NOT supported by the information given.
The incident began when a Subaru station wagon crashed into a bull on US 95 north of Council at about 6:45 p.m.
This is after not only sunset (5:31PM) but last light at 6:02PM source for sunset time
Dark critter, dark highway, open range, right place, wrong time.
No aggression on the part of the bull needed to have the wreck.
Afterward, the animal may act in self-defense--it has been hurt it and may well respond to the presence of additional people, noises, flashing lights, or efforts to drive it off with defensive acts (seen as aggression by those who just got there).
Without knowing how badly the bull was injured and the people involved, there are several possible scenarios, from an altercation resulting from the injury to the animal to a possible dispute over 'putting it down' to a pissing contest between deputies and the rancher.
If people were shot and killed, I would say the matter could have been handled better.

Yep, open means open. Share the road. Driver beware.

To No.1. How about “hungry” deputies? BBQ anyone?
To: Timber Rattler
My guess is the rancher wanted to put down his own critter and the Barney Fife didn’t want him to. Just guessin.

I would put the Prius drivers right up there with the Subarus.

Technically, no sharing of the road.
Livestock has right of way.
We pass through with their permission.

...Yantis and both deputies all fired their weapons If Yantis fired his weapon, it seems unlikely that he fired it at the bull.
I hope there is video.

"The bull had legal right to be there."It was a bull. It didn't have legal rights period.

Is this like stoning the owner of the bull that gores?

This means the rancher had the right to graze the bull there

Take the bull to a butcher. Then, according to the UN, some conservative could have a “steak” through the heart.

I’m not an attorney, are you?
I’m quite sure an attorney would confirm my position.

No attorney on earth is going to confirm that bulls have legal rights.
On the other hand, if you were trying to say that it was legal for the owner of the bull to graze the animal on the open range, that would be correct.

No attorney in the US, I should say. Can’t vouch for the crazies over in Europe.
