Brb, shooting this dog, that looks completely harmless and nice, just because it barked at me, while the owner is screaming at me not to shoot and saying the dog doesnt bark.
What a piece of **** cop.
Hope he loses his job or gets punished some how.
Sickening.
Depressing...

So when someone dials 911 police should just say "F it, I'm not going to a private residence to help these people out."
Domestic disturbances are one of the most dangerous calls a police officer can go on when your talking about getting killed in the line of duty. And they happen to be a call where its highly likely there will be an injured or possibly even fatally wounded victim. Most violent crimes/murders are either drug or domestic related. (At least where I live).
There are 3 things that can go bad on a domestic call. (That has happened with some frequency)
1. The aggressor (usually the husband) can kill the officer.
2. The victim (usually the wife) can kill the officer because she's afraid her husband/bf is going to jail.
3. The people at the residence may have trained their dogs specifically to attack police officers. At which time the LEO is pretty much defenseless if they are being bitten by a dog. There have been several cases of this where I work. The dogs were trained only to attack police, and it was attack on site.
Sucks for the dog... But blame the city not the officer.
Where I work the vast majority of places do not have addresses posted out front, which means a lot of locating the right house/business is guesswork. Sometimes you'll be on the 400 block, then it will jump to the 100 block, then you'll be on the 500 block again... etc. On some street odd numbers are on the right, on others its on the left, etc.
The only solution to the problem of officers going to the wrong houses is people need to put their address up (or the city needs to mark the streets in-front of addresses).
btw that kid is going to get a big check from the city. Where I work this happened and the people got a check for 10K and there was virtually no publicity.Last edited by guest89; 04-17-2012 at 01:45 PM.

The police will continue to do this until we revolt. When we revolt our government will have it's excuse to institute martial law and they will have what they have been wanting, tyranny. More than the police, we as the everyday citizen are responsible for not speaking up earlier about this type of stuff. The truth is, most people in this thread, me included will rage for a few minutes, find something else to entertain themselves with and forget about this tragedy. When tyranny comes knocking on your door, don't say that I didn't warn you.

lol dog charging at him? okay lets break it down **** face. 1:40 A small target moving much faster than a human can, must of started off well over 20 feet away for the police officer to draw the weapon and fire in time. Guys a crack shot if he could draw his weapon and shoot it at a very fast moving target with a small profile. Lettuce be reality if the dog had wanted to charge him down and bite his ankles it could have. The police officer must of had his weapon drawn and shot at a stationary animal that was barking. Which means there was no reason to shoot it.
So we have a 30 foot drive way with a dog the officer had assumed to be dangerous, who had either shot it from 30 feet away while not being a threat. Or he had shot it mid charge. Both incredibly unlikely

I'm saying based on hundreds of police officer tests it takes an average of 21ft reaction time for a police officer to get a shot off from their firearm on a large human running square on. So I'd imagine a smaller faster animal would be very hard to take down. Noone is dead but they would get their ankles bitten yes. People are pathetic with dogs, its not that hard to restrain a dog, and I have had to restrain a feral Rottweiler before.

This is one topic that I would seriously love to be wrong about. I seriously hope that I'm wrong about what seems to be our near future. I would love to laugh at myself in twenty years and admit how silly I was to worry about such things. I'll gladly be the fool and live happily ever after if that's possible.

The owner of the dog was being interviewed on a local talk show and the chief called in to apologize to him... too little too late at this point I think. The owner should be paid and the cop should be fired based on what I am hearing from the dashcam footage. This is not the first time APD has caught flack for shooting dogs either, and the chief said he was going to change the way they train officers to approach dogs about a year or two ago... guess he forgot.

"It gives officers some food for thought in terms on how to approach the call. To be able to approach the dog in a way that protects them [the officer] and maybe in the way where they can avoid the situation where they have to use their firearm to protect themselves,” says Acevedo.
Yeah that worked real well.Last edited by Jimbo.; 04-17-2012 at 02:36 PM. Reason: added link

Hey *******, guess what happens if SWAT comes knocking at your door and you legitimately dont realize its SWAT and think its burglars trying to rob you and pull out a gun to defend yourself.
Here let me help you, this is what happens
http://abcnews.go.com/US/tucson-swat...2#.T43gYtU7g7Y
So when a cop fuks up and something ends up dead its perfectly cool and alright, just an unfortunate accident. But when a civilian fuks up he gets shot at 60 times b4 he even poses a danger.

Cops get away with everything. Remember the time, when cops broke into a marines house in the MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT, and the marine woke up and took his rifle with him to check who broke into his house, and cops killed him right away. And only reason they went into the house because someone called them and said the man of tjat house is possibly growing weed. 90% of cops are bad. And abuse their power
