Awful as this story is -- I love animals -- I have to point out there's criminals serving long stretches in prison because they killed or wounded a K9 unit dog during their apprehension. Some law enforcement agencies regard an attack on their K9s as equal to an attack on one of their sworn human officers.

But when some negligent K9 handler kills his dog when locking it in his closed patrol cruiser in the middle of summer, then hey it's just loss of equipment. Oh well, don't do that again. Anyway, get a new dog in here.

Doesn't sit right with me, considering that I can remember seeing a police motorcycle honor guard escorting a K9 dog that was 'killed in the line of duty' to a funeral while a police band played bagpipes and teary-eyed mustached officers wept as a 21 gun salute was fired. I had to look around wondering "Am I the only person who thinks they're really overdoing it here?".

SILENCE, UNTERMENSCH!

A POLICE STATE IS A SAFE STATE!

Commies in media deliberately glorify cops because they ardently desire a police state. Consider that being a law enforcement person is not sufficiently dangerous to be in the Top Ten Most Dangerous Occupations. US Bureau of Labor statistics has so stated for many years.

But, any police man, even a police dog, killed at work is granted de facto sainthood by the commie crowd. But fishermen, loggers, truck drivers, construction workers - all are ignored despite their occupation being in the Top Ten.
