[Paradox]

As the owner of a large dog which can look ferocious, I understand that if she ever gets out and runs up at someone barking, it would be possible that if that person were armed, great harm could come to my dog, and it might be justified. Sad but thats how it goes.

How in tarnation is it possible, mailmen, utility crews, meter readers etc, etc, can go through their entire careers and not have to routinely shoot and kill neighborhood pets?

How is possible these people can even perform their jobs without guns on their sides?

Same here. As I became rational again, that is exactly how I would (and do) view it. Then again, I am not a fan of 90% of today’s cops. Far too arrogant, for my tastes.
