Pathetic. He should be charged with animal cruelty.

1. disgusting. Some people just like killing stuff! although its
usually better if they are not police officers.

What a heartless bastard!

4. We need to rethink who we hire as police officers.
Hot-headed, impulsive and authoritarian-minded persons need not apply.

12. It seems that the go-to choice is returning vets from Iraq and

Afghanistan.

Reassuring, huh?

5. That is just FUCKED beyond belief!!
I watched it all and re-wound back through some segments and it is quite obvious the dog was under control of the harness and submitting when the officer pulled out the gun and shot her like a coward! Dammit, they could have given her a treat and she would have gone right with them. She wasn't charging them at all, just trying to get away. It's really hard not to cry when you watch this kind of blatant animal cruelty. :cry:

11. Thanks for the link I could watch.
I was surprised it was the handler that killed the dog, kept thinking it was going to be jumpy who had his taser out once they peacefully leashed and maybe even muzzled the dog, then drew his sidearm so he had both a taser and a handgun trained on the animal. Only to watch as the handler lasso's the dog with the pole then draws his handgun and shoots, looks at the injured dog, and finishes the job.
