Police kill dog for no reason

Most of these assholes think they are above the law. A few guys I went to high school with are cops now and back in the day every one of them was a bully/hard ass, fuck face. I couldn't get through watching these videos, it makes my blood boil. Fucking Nazi motherfuckers.

crappy situation but its the owners fault period if im walking the street and a dog comes after me and i have a gun there will be one less dog out there because the owner did not have control of the dog the windows should have been to where your dog cant jump out

You realize that it is summer time correct?
What happens inside of a fully sealed vehicle when it is hot outside? In fact, it is animal abuse to leave your pet in a vehicle without having the windows at least partially down. Who knows how long the dog would have been in there, as the man was being arrested. The correct thing to do was put your animal in the car, and in a situation where it can live if you arent able to get back to it for awhile. That means leaving the windows partially down.

The fault is solely on the officers for not trying to defuse the situation AT ALL. Waiting for an animal that has clearly made up its mind to protect, to actually start protecting, is moronic. As soon as the dog jumped out of the car, the officers should have started planning how they were going to peacefully end the aggression. Protect and serve my fucking ass.

i didnt say close the windows all the way just not down enough for the dog to get out the victim here is the dog the owner screwed up if the cop was to goto the car and shoot the dog thru the window we would be on the same page but thats not what happened.again screwed up situation

Did you watch the video?

Not only did the dog not immediately charge, but it gave the 4 officers AMPLE time to formulate a plan of action that wouldnt result in the dog being shot. As I've already said, as soon as the dog jumped out of the car, the officers should have been ready for it to continue its attack on them. That gives you plenty of time to get your taser/mase. Why is the first choice to shoot the dog, not once, but 4 times. Sure the owner wasnt perfect, and he should have had the windows higher, but it is NOT his fault that his dog acted on instinct. It is the officers fault for not recognizing that the situation was going to esculate to the dog actually lunging at them.

The owner is responsible for the behavior of his animal. Period.

ya i watched the video ,mace might work tazer might work gun will work i like to go with the sure thing no need to take unnessecary risk the dog lunged more than once and again not the dogs fault the handlers fault.

The owner was in handcuffs, and had put his animal in his vehicle. The dog did not need to be shot at 4 times to stop it from attacking.

You're an idiot. Period.
Maybe you are a little person, but 4 large humans can easily take a 140lb dog. Killing it without trying to do so, now thats over the top.

one human can take on a 140 lb. dog if you can keep your composer and squeeze the life out of them but again why take the risk

Because the dog is acting on pure instinct. All, and I mean, ALL they had to do was let the owner walk away from them with the handcuffs on even, and get his dog settled down. They didnt even give the animal a chance. They wanted to shoot that animal

The best thing they could have done was instructed him to get his animal under control and then taken him into custody again afterwards. They shot first and thought after

wether a dog is coming at me by insticnt cause hes hungry or it just wants to bite me in the ass cause its mean has little to do with the fact that i will protect myself ,the owner had his oportunity to secure dog he failed the dog paid the price.

Does not matter.

You should refrain from calling people idiots. Especially those who talked in no such tone towards you. And those who happen to be correct.

im 6' 215. Not little at all. Did you know size does not matter? A 140 lb dog can easily take down a full grown man. I don't like what happened, but I understand it.

I called you an idiot because you happen to think that taking a life is the first course of action, even when yours isnt in immediate danger.

There were several different ways they could have avoided killing the animal. Period.

Also, size does matter. I have a ~90 lb german shepherd, and spend lots of time around 100+ pits, rots, dobermans. First off, yes a dog that big can take down a human for sure. But, if a good size human had to fight a large dog, the human would win. All of that is besides the point though. The police had many outs, they took the shittiest route

well then the cops had every right to be fearful.

I mean guys hiding behind bulletproof vests, with their buddies all armed to the teeth.

Yup, sounds like a bunch of toughguys to me

It is pretty messed up how they can kill your dog, no big deal. You kill a police dog it's like killing a police officer. WTF?

A nice helping of double standard anyone?

Its shocking how most people don't know how to handle them selves with large dogs or any aggressive dog for that matter almost anyone can become the bigger dog so to say. The police and the owner are both at fault granted the police more then the owner. Police are taught how too handle these situations dealing with large dogs etc. They used extreme force without regard.

If the cop didn't have a mace or taser gun, would it have been okay for him to use his firearm to defend himself?

I'm asking sincerely out of interest, not personal belief.

Dominance is key with all dogs.

A cop without mace and a tazer that's a good one.

I agree the double standards are shocking, not to mention the ridiculous use of force not even warranted for the situation. A baton would've been appropriate, tasing (from what I've read) can lead to an unpredictable reaction from the animal that can actually incite a dog to attack/ramp up it's aggression, unlike in a human (not on sherm sticks) who will general become incapacitated.

And SIZE does not matter, regardless of your size and stature a "dominant" minded person who intimately understands dogs can control a dog of any size WITHOUT anger, violence, aggression of any kind... Dogs do not respond to such emotions and I DO NOT believe dogs are to blame when attacks happen even if (as horrible as it is) it involves children. Humans are always to blame.
