The article never says that the rogue cop was even threatened or approached by the dog.
[2nd paragraph] The 6-year-old boxer named Rocky charged at the officer
 
No offense, I'm as guilty as anyone on FR of commenting without reading the article, but out of general respect for other posters, I don't debate without reading the article.

A Boxer CHARGED AT the rogue cop?

Big deal.

That's what Boxers do, tongue hanging, tail wagging, eager to meet the new friend.

Nothing even remotely suggests that the dog ATTACKED the rogue cop.

The best the his buddies could come up with was "The officer has a right to protect himself. He has a right to use deadly force if he feels he's about to be attacked by an animal."

According to this cop, the rogue cop "felt" threatened. His wimpy feelings doomed an innocent animal and deprived a family of a beloved pet.
