Fire the cop.
This is getting monotonous anymore.
Any cop that shoots MY dog is a dead man, period.
And you will likely go to prison for a very long time.
Puting animal life over human life is normally a bad idea.
As is taking a person’s private property without cause.
The cop in this story removed the dog from the owner, which had regained control over his dog. The dogfight had ended.
A good cop would find out which dog started the fight (his dog or the poodle) and would fine/warn (as appropriate with local law) the owner of the dog that started the fight.
Some folks think of dogs as their children and get unduly emotional about it. It's quite sad really.
My dog is a valued family member.
I’m sick and tired of these cop shootings by asshats with badges.
Screw them, and their JBT boot-licking supporters.
“And you will likely go to prison for a very long time.”
Not if I’m on the jury.
