There were over 100K+ LEO’s that did not shoot a dog today.

Don’t throw the baby out with the bath water lest you invalidate the argument some make that 70 million gun owners did not kill someone today.

It is not SOP it was two doofuses that were scared of a dog.

The day’s not over.

Sorry that argument doesn’t hold water as these incidences are happening more and more and are starting to be the norm

And many of those 100K + LEOs are NOT dealing with those LEOs who ARE shooting dogs.

Any man who willingly shoots a dog because it gives him a thrill to do, or because it gives him a “jolt of power” to do so, is a sadist.

LEOs who do not immediately charge and arrest sadists within their ranks create and promote a culture of sadism.

Clearly, the LEOs (as opposed to the peace officers of old) are training for something.

For what, we must ask, is the practice of shooting dogs being clearly promoted and encouraged by the “thin blue line”?

Do a search on the “warondogs” keyword.

This isn’t a local problem. It’s a national problem.

I will admit that there a some cops that are good guys. Unfortunately a lot aren’t. My experience is that at least half are jerks.

True....the vast majority of LEO do not shoot dogs.

Although there are abuses by LEOs, and the dog shootings are tragic...I am positive there are a lot more irresponsible pet owners than trigger happy dog shooting LEO. Note that this family failed to properly set and take care of their alarm....which probably spooked their dog into a panic

People are just a little too much Savage and Levin when it comes to dogs.

“There were over 100K+ LEO’s that did not shoot a dog today.”

And not a single one speaks out against other cops shooting dogs. Not a single one, so, they all get lumped in together as they refuse to distance themselves from those that do shoot dogs.

Only because they weren’t given the opportunity.
