Charges dropped in police dog taunting case
The Associated Press
PITTSBURGH - A Pittsburgh man accused of taunting a police dog is no longer facing criminal charges.
Allegheny County prosecutors dropped a felony charge of taunting a police dog because 23-year-old Kenneth King has completed anger management charges.
Police say King taunted and threatened to kill Benny, a German shepherd. King says he yelled at the dog because it barked and startled him when he walked past a police vehicle.
King spent nine days in jail in October in the case because he couldn't post $100,000 bail.
...King has completed anger management charges.

I think that the 4th grader who evidently wrote this meant to say “classes” instead of “charges”. Not enough info here. Did he just yell, “You #$^% dog, I’m gonna kill you!” or was there more to it? Sloppy reporting....
Cops can *shoot* your dog out of pure enjoyment... but don’t say so much as a bad word to their dog....
[Outside kramer’s apartmen]
Kramer: Hi.
Cop: You Cosmo Kramer:?
Kramer: Uh, yes. Yeah.
Cop: You recognize this piece of fabric?
Kramer: Oh, yeah, that’s...
Cop: What?
Kramer: What?
Cop: You’re under arrest.
Geez.
What would they have charged him with if the guy called the dog a b!tch?
It's enough to make me wish the dog pees in these particular cops' morning coffee.
A felony? For saying unpleasant things to a police dog?
What kind of people are these cops and DA's??? Pissing in their coffee is too good for them...but since we can't do that, let's ridicule them, to the full extent that the law allows.
Cowards. Titty-babies, hiding behind badges. Un-American, freedom hating weaklings. Abusers of authority, who unjustifiably and capriciously dilute the sancity and god-given rights of individuals, doing us all more harm than good. Parasites on society, unable to otherwise make a meaningful contribution to civilization, weedling their way into positions of power, so that they can be self-justified in their own small minded existence of living off of the largess of society. Power-tripping, pathetic cowards...woops, I already said "cowards"...
All in my own humble opinion, of course.
JERRY: Let go, Farfel! Let go, gimme that! Gimme the sneaker you stupid idiot! Shut up! (to Elaine) So what would you do?
ELAINE: Well it’s only been three days, I’m sure he’s gonna call.
JERRY (to Farfel): STOP IT! SHUT UUUUUUP!!! (to Elaine) Do you believe this? Do you believe what I’m dealing with here, I’ve got a wild animal in the house! He’s deranged, maybe he’s got rabies. I can get lockjaw.
ELAINE: If only.
JERRY: Look at this place. He’s going everywhere, I can’t go out of the house at night. I haven’t performed in three days. This’ll be my first night out of the house since I got back.
ELAINE: Hey, when you walk him, do ya...
JERRY: Do I what?
ELAINE: Do you pick it up?
JERRY: Yes, I pick it up.
ELAINE: You pick it up?!?
JERRY: Well you have to.
ELAINE: Oh, boy would I love to see that.
JERRY: SHUT UP!! Shut up Farfel, stop it! (to Elaine) I don’t know what to do. I mean what if I take it to the pound then the guy shows up?
