Cops are getting stupider, more arrogant, more out of touch with the public, more militarized and more heavily armed.

A rash of animal shootings by police officers nationwide has law-enforcement agencies running for cover amid growing public outrage that could force state legislatures to require greater accountability from men and women in uniform.Gee, ya think?
Bamahead, ping for your list. Also, I think you need to do a variation on the poster where officer friendly says "I'm going to kick your ass and get away with it" where he's saying "I'm going to kill your dog and get away with it".

I watched the second video linked in the story of the cops shooting the Rottweiler. I wish I hadn’t watched it. The guy was “acting stupidly” by aggressively filming the cops, and his poor dog paid the ultimate price.

There is no excuse for it and the proof is it doesn’t happen anywhere near this level other than in the USA.

The progressive militarization of civilian LE is a time bomb.
I think the question is when it will blow and what will be the spark that ignites it.
I live in a small town and the cops here are pretty pro 2A for normal law abiding folks like yours truly. One of the sheriff’s detective teaches a tactical weapons class that the Mrs and I will be taking next month.
That said, I don’t know, but suspect, we are an exception and not the rule.

This is symptomatic of crap govt policies. We can have good guys on the payrolls, bad guys, or the random combination we now seem to have. We clearly need more of the good guys.
