Nah, if jealous they'd try it themselves. Nah, this is the guy who does a mediocre job, then thinks the people who actually do it well are just doing it to make him look bad.
I believe the DOJ report is linked somewhere in that article, if not I'll dig it up if requested.
Cops in this country kill so many dogs each year that a specialist at the Department of Justice’s (“DOJ”) community-oriented program services office says it has become an “epidemic.” The DOJ estimates that around 25 to 30 dogs are killed by cops every day, with some numbers as high as 10,000 per year. The totals could, in fact, be higher, since most police agencies do not formally track officer-involved shootings involving animals.
It's not about logic, it's about being forced to submit to authority under threat of death. Some people think that system makes them safer, because they don't believe it will ever be used against them.
Downvoted for being right despite the people below not understanding hors de combat.
Fleeing does not mean surrender. Being injured enough to not be able to fight, essentially unconscious is another. You can also shoot someone if you reasonably believe they're commiting perfidy. These are protected by the Geneva convention and war crimes themselves.
K, but that's not what we are talking about here. These aren't just people that are out to hurt others. Nobody has a problem with police officers dealing people that are a danger because they're shooting at people.
The ATF must be absolutely seething that the FBI is riding roughshod over their jurisdiction, sniping dogs and shooting unarmed people in the back are two of their three core missions. If the FBI starts selling guns to cartels, it'll be a complete usurpation.
“ The other involved an agent in California who fatally shot a family dog that he said bit him during a “family dispute” while he was off duty; he got a five-day suspension.”
