The courts banned the use of lethal force on a fleeing suspect many years ago.

Yes, I figured. But there’s often a difference between the law and what is right.

A police dog is not lethal force.

Bunch of idiots on the court. Much of our legal system is corrupted by incompetence and lying by judges.

A police K9 is not legally deadly force. It’s legally about the same as using a taser.

“The courts banned the use of lethal force on a fleeing suspect many years ago.”

It had to be done through the courts because such legislation would never have passed. That’s something that needs to be reversed, ASAP.
