The officer was chasing a black man who was wanted for shooting an officer. That’ll make most officers pretty jumpy.

I don’t care who he was chasing or why. This cop needs to be prosecuted criminally and then bankrupted civilly. Once he’s out of prison the family can get a little personal payback.

As long as we’re playing the race card, was it a back dog?

Anybody chasing the officer who was wanted for shooting a kid?

I don't see the nexus here. Did the black shooting suspect look anything like the dog or kid? Was the dog viciously attacking the officer? No report of any wounds. Did the kid viciously attack the officer? Was this some sort of warning shot? "Stop! or the dog gets it!"

Dog, child, black man... I’m reminded of this:

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron’s cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience. They may be more likely to go to Heaven yet at the same time likelier to make a Hell of earth. This very kindness stings with intolerable insult. To be “cured” against one’s will and cured of states which we may not regard as disease is to be put on a level of those who have not yet reached the age of reason or those who never will; to be classed with infants, imbeciles, and domestic animals.”

Well that make everything ok, missed the dog and a kid got shot so where is the problem, the cop when home safe and that’s all that matters.

with the apparent increase in cops shooting dogs, you seem to be suggesting that simply being a cop out in public makes them jumpy.

So, chasing a white guy wanted for shooting a pig would have made him less likely to shoot AT a random dog and injure a kid instead?
