Not understanding the whole cops shooting dogs thing recently.

10-15 yrs ago it was the big thing to prosecute a perp if he shot a police dog just like if he shot a real cop.

So is it justifiable homicide if I kill a cop in an because he shot my dog?

Yep justifiable just like they find it all the time if the cop had shot you.

But "police shooting dogs" isn't a "recent thing".
The officer that I replaced (when he retired after 30 years in law enforcement) had shot probably 25+ injured or vicious dogs through the 70's & 80's.
There's also plenty of Animal Control officers that shoot dogs & cats & such.
The anti-cop/police haters just want you to think it's a recent thing.

As a police officer I'm not a fan of the overuse of SWAT, but instead of being armchair quartebacks maybe everyone that bitches & moans should go to their city council meetings and campaign for dissolving their local SWAT units.
