A Georgia police officer shot and killed a tiny Jack Russell Terrier that he claims threatened him during a routine probationary checkup on Monday.
The officer, Antoine Jones, is over six feet tall and weighs nearly 300 pounds. Patches, the dog he killed, weighs just 12 pounds, according to a local news channel.
Jones visited the Albany residence of Cherrie Shelton earlier this week to check on her son, who is serving probation. Upon Joness arrival, two-year-old Patches approached the officer and began barking. Shelton claims she told Jones that Patches was no threat, but the officer drew his weapon and shot the dog anyway.
After being shot, Patches fled and hid, eventually succumbing to her wounds.
According to Joness statement, Patches advanced toward him in a threatening manner even after receiving multiple verbal commands to get back.
But Shelton said this was not Joness first visit to the home, and the officer should have known that Patches was harmless.
Shelton buried Patches, and has plans to buy a cross to mark her grave. The dog is missed, she said.
You’re a joke. Most trolls are.
A very vicious breed. Here one is seen chewing on what is left of the neighbor.
The only one "intimating" is you. Antoine Jones wasn't a cop. So stop the inaccuracies and flaming.
There’s simple and friendly ways of handling almost any dog, and the trend seems to be either deliberate and doctrinal or complete psychosis. I don’t believe a whole force becomes insane over a short period of time, so doctrine it is.
There is a great deal of discussion out there on where the muslims are making successful inroads, and the amount in the military is now so high that they have dedicated interest groups. When it comes to the police, it’s low-key, and they try to hide their talks. But they sometimes come out with a score sheet of successful hires and conversions, usually those aare brought up by CAIR and ACLU.
I'm not and never claimed to be. You sure do make every effort to distract from the thread and article.
And here I thought the ‘black’ comment was an effort to inject racism into the thread. No it was a reference to Ninja Jack Russells.
woo hooo
Do they use swords too? That might be better then Yoda with a light saber.
No, it is what you did yesterday that got the thread pulled.
Did you know, the site owner can still see your comment on that thread even though it was pulled?
Do you really want to try and lie about it?
LOLOLOL...priceless!!
Blackjack Russels will smack you with a lead sap. But they’re not dogs :).
Shurikens and shoryuken!
Saw the comment on the pulled thread.
The attempt by this guy to deny it is laughable at best.
Since cavity searches are one of your interests, would that make you a TSA officer? (you should hear this guy defend his right to cavity search)
Well thats good because I was worried someone might shoot you and feed you to the bears. They are almost as dangerous as these ninja Jack Russells ya know.
Brought home the leg of the missing eighth dwarf from snow white!
And how am I supposedly doing what you are accusing? Please present specific posts of mine as examples so I can make future reference. Thanks in advance.
Working from memory but he’s claimed to be a ex LEO in an earlier thread. I might be wrong or someone might be telling a lie, hard to tell.
Thanks for your concern, but I can assure you it isn't necessary.

Well, what did you do yesterday?
You started a flame war.
Today you whined about the thread having been pulled once “already”.
Sounded rather upset that it is posted again.
Aaaand, you keep complaining and plaguing people.
Oh its quite necessary judging from your people skills here.
Seriously, don’t leave town.
