You know...I was making allowances and half-agreeing with you...I can see how an officer serving a warrant could see a barking pit as a legitimate threat...and I wasn't going to argue that point, in fact I was perfectly willing to cede it, apart from the legitimacy of the warrant or no-knock tactics in general.
But if you're too chicken-sh!t to go up against a corgi in full body army without blazing away, you'll not get my agreement, my concurrence or respect. Only my sympathy for being a small, insecure man, and defender of the same.
