Apparently someone called the cops because two dogs were loose in the neighborhood “menacing” people. I looked at the video and I don’t believe that was a trained “service” dog.
Pepper spray would have been a wiser course of action regardless.
That was ridiculous. The cop had NO other course of action? He couldn’t have used his sirens to draw attention from inside the house to come collect the dog? His loudspeaker? He couldn’t have called the station and asked for a phone number for the address?
Absolutely ridiculous. No one was in danger. The cop purposefully put himself in danger. Then, he shot a *barking* dog.
If I shot someone’s dog, all my firearms would be confiscated in a heartbeat. I’m sick of the fearless way in which cops break the law they are sworn to uphold.
