Sadly, I have a family member who was a former narcotics officer. In one raid (they were raiding relatives of a dealer, none of whom were involved in the drug trade) he held the homeowner down by stepping on his neck as he lay on the couch, with his gun pointed at the man. The man said “If my dog growls don’t worry. He won’t hurt you.”

My relative turned and shot the dog who had not yet moved or made a sound.

Something happens to too many of these guys that I simply cannot explain.

sounds to me like your relative is a major a-hole, no offense intended.

C'mon. It's not hard. Lord Acton identified it long ago "Power tends to corrupt." At the cop level that means getting badge-happy and swinging your iron dick around is a rush.

These turds shoot family pets because they know the pet can't defend himself. They really should be in a different line of work--like interior decorating or hair dressing, where they can't hurt anybody.

It is power and its corrupting influence. We will see more and more of this with our current government.
