Veteran says cops killed his dog during raid on wrong apartment

[Forever_frost]

I'm a firm believer that every search warrant should be led by the investigator that writes the warrant.

Handing a warrant to an entry team escalates the chances of them going to the wrong door.

Everyone here knows I'm a dog lover. Cats not so much.

With that said, I've also said that I've had many opportunities to shoot a dog, but never have. The last time I was at a dog shooting I had baton in hand, when the officer next to me shot the charging pit bull. My ears rang for a long damn time. The dog was at a full sprint at us, was hit in the chest, continued at us, took a 90 degree right turn, ran down the sidewalk, turned around, ran back towards us, took a 90 degree left turn and ran deep into the back yard. After a few minutes, we walked to the back and found it had died in the back yard.

We were trying to make it to the front door to contact the owner. There were 3 unrestrained pit bulls at that address that had killed a neighbor's puppy and almost gotten the other puppy. The dogs had turned over the neighbor's trash can and made a holy mess of the yard.

We were just going to do a report and forward it to animal control when the large grey one charged.

So, when faced with a dog, I've still never unholstered my gun.

There are a LOT of officers that are scared of dogs, and they tend to go straight to gun when confronted with one. I'm not saying that it is right, just that's the way it is.

There is lot of info missing from this story, like did the dog try to eat the officer? Was it working its way loose? I still don't say that justifies it, but it would explain some.

What it doesn't explain is why the wrong location stuff keeps happening. Police are human, and humans make mistakes, but there should be extra caution taken in executing a search warrant.

See then he would't be dealing with people like me as I know I have a mental disorder and am only on a retirement I earned through service. Do keep trying though

Thanks for proving you're retarded.
I didn't say anything about you sucking down benefits, i said he has to deal with people like you, BUT they are even worse due to the other aspects.


Thanks for your service, and its sad to see it left you as such a psychotic/retarded joke.

No you said he dealt with people like me and then went on a tirade. Kind of amusing really. Let's see, psychotic? Probably. Retarded? See I had that worry in the hospital. I mean, wondering if you're really going to be as smart as you were before? That's tough. Biggest fear was worrying that I'd be significantly slower than I was before and I am a bit slower. I have trouble finding words and I find I stutter more than I used to but hey, rewiring your brain after taking damage in the frontal lobe is always a bitch.

Hell, I still have balance problems but yes, let's focus on a disability as an insult. Especially a disability caused by a feat you could never duplicate in a place you're too cowardly to go. Let's have this conversation muchacho. I've already been dead, what do you have?

But I didn't really expect much from you. I mean, you've already gone with your full repertoire of insults. Now, be a good boy, go lay down before you're tethered to the porch again

wow

sanity unbounded!

Very rarely will we ever get a total story on anything. There's always a bias in most stories causing something to seem unreasonable. Details are always buried for some reason.

Arguments fight boredom. sometimes, it's the only excitement I get all day.
