I just find it sickening that whenever a cop kills a dog, the dog gets the benefit of the doubt, yet when the same cop kills a (black) human being, it’s the cop who gets the benefit of doubt. As much as I personally prefer the company of animals to people, there’s something wrong with that IMHO.
You pretty much already said that. You didn’t answer my question.
Sometimes dogs get the benefit of the doubt here, but not if it is a pit bull, and for the same reason.
Good comment. I noticed that myself but chose not to include it in my earlier comment.

If the dog were posting several pics on Facebook of often wearing Vice Lords red clothing, flashing gang signs and being surrounded by others doing and wearing the same thing.... and if the dog were an aspiring “rap artist” posting songs about drugs and violence....and if the dog were seen in a physical altercation with the cop...
then yes, I would give the benefit of the doubt to the cop who shot the dog.
