That's fine. Not sure why you feel like being an *******, though.
I asked you to clarify something and provided a reason I believe the opposite. It's still deplorable the officer acted that way, but I don't think he deserves to die for it.
He will get away with it i promise you that, he might get desk duty or a week off with pay at the most. Its bad when the police are scared of a dog he acted as if a pack of wild dogs had him on the ground ripping him apart. He sounds like a scared PU**Y to me i think he better go get his old job back at Wal-Mart!
I want to quote this with the hope you actually man up and do it. So it can be used against you
Show me there was no other way that I could have avoided the shooting...somehow I don't see you as a dog shooter though.
We will all defend life and limb, but there is a scary number who will kill animals for fun. Just no way this deal in LC is going to fly.
One reason, I know of this family, they aren't bystanders. There is a few bucks and friends involved. There will be an empty cop car soon, at least for a while.

I sincerely doubt that. This phenomenon has become common enough it's been given the term "puppycide by cop". After dozens of stories like this, the most severe "consequence" for anyone I've read of is that one department has rewritten its policy on use of force on dogs. Bad cops know perfectly well that they can get away with shooting a dog whenever and wherever they feel like it, for any or no reason, without fear of punishment. That is why I have such a hardline view of this issue.

You know what? You're right. I apologize. I reacted badly because I was expecting the usual response given whenever someone dares criticize police on this site.

Not from me. All I said was I'd cheer and throw a party.
Yrdawg,
I didn't watch the video. What you quoted me on is simply the question "if" a dog shooting gets ruled as "justified" wanting to shoot the shooter (cop or not) is just plain ludicrous. If you shot my dog because he was acting an ass and you had no other options, why would I be mad? Really.
There are other ways to deal with dogs than shooting them. Just saying...
We all will defend life and limb, however last time I checked dogs, cats, and livestock are property.

My My My...Some on here know how people are in west La. ...and some are indeed clueless...

Here is what will really happen in the real world. If I am chasing a suspect and while in the pursuit of that suspect a dog appears to become aggressive towards me I will not get bitten. If I believe it's serious enough to go through all of the hassle and paperwork to use deadly force then I will do just that. You will not shoot me for shooting your dog so I'm calling ******** on that one. You can type all the things that make you feel warm and fuzzy inside but in reality you will use your better judgement. You wonder why officers get on here and label you as a cop haters

I love how people act like the officer was just skipping down the street whistling zippidy-doo-dah when he up and decided shoot the dog in cold blood.
They were chasing armed car jackers. I'm sure their adrenaline was pumping and their minds were in survival mode. It's a factor that can't be overlooked, these guys are not robots.

I can't cite the case, but I seem to remember that the courts consider a dog to be property. If you shoot a dog, you are only responsible for the cost of a replacement. I hunted with a guy that shot a deer dog, and that was the outcome. And since when do you get the death penalty for shooting a dog??
