If the police are that scared of canines pity the poor letter carriers with NO guns at all............
You are so right...I feel for the letter carriers. But it would be rare if the letter carriers were delivering mail at mid-night, like when this incident happened, in pitch dark.
I’m convinced that most cops shoot dogs simply because they can. They are a convenient target to blow off a little steam. I don’t think it has anything to do with real fear or concern most of the time; just a callous disregard for someone else’s property.
