As a dog owner I cannot fathom the anger these people must be feeling.
I’m a law-abiding citizen in every way. I do not invite people who are involved in illegal activities in my home to prevent this sort of thing. I live in a part of town that is exceptionally low-crime and devoid of people who could be mistaken as potential drug dealers or otherwise. If the police pulled this shit on me, you can bet that there’d be more than just a dead dog in the house. You kill my pet you’d better be prepared to kill me too.
