[QUOTE=FreakyMe;21758007]Oh, maybe because they had slightly more important things to be worrying about? Think about it.[/QUOTE] Yeah, terrorizing some poor guy's home over the [I]suspicion[/I] that there were "large amounts of marijuana."
[QUOTE=FreakyMe;21758090]Wasn't so much a snip as I realized the volume of bleeding heart in here was critical and me irritating it could cause massive hilarity.[/QUOTE] Actually we're pissed at the cops.
[QUOTE=FreakyMe;21757674]They were serving a high risk warrant, and they were well within their rights to shoot the pit bull if it even looked like it was trying to escape the cage to get at them. They were entering not knowing if they would be fired on by the suspect, and for the sake of efficiency, killing the dogs was in the best interest of the search.[/QUOTE] Don't you like having sex with dogs? But condone mindless killing of them?
[QUOTE=Sewer Boy;21758103]Yeah, terrorizing some poor guy's home over the [I]suspicion[/I] that there were "large amounts of marijuana."[/QUOTE] Also a guy with no prior offenses, right? Perhaps we should just disbar the police because they tend to make criminals unhappy.
[QUOTE=FreakyMe;21758007]Oh, maybe because they had slightly more important things to be worrying about? Think about it.[/QUOTE] Alternatively, you walk in, see children watching Spongebob, see a dog in a cage not exiting, see a small dog waddling towards you (corgis waddle, at least every one I have ever seen), yell at the children to get down and hold their dog, then move on. WITH NO CHILDREN TRAUMATIZED AND 200% FEWER DEAD DOGS. When the SWAT team busted into my house they didn't give a crap about my dogs and ignored their barking and jumping on them (the dogs weren't attacking, just jumping to play). Seems like some people are able to not kill dogs. Not so hard.
Everyone go to the news article to vote in the poll: [url]http://www.columbiatribune.com/news/2010/may/03/drug-raid-inquiry-is-ongoing/[/url] It's on the left hand side.
[QUOTE=FreakyMe;21758131]Also a guy with no prior offenses, right? Perhaps we should just disbar the police because they tend to make criminals unhappy.[/QUOTE] It's not necessarily the cops' fault, it's the people who gave them the shitty info.

Freaky, you're taking this porportion and flinging it out the window and making it look like every fucking single cop should be gone and that we're blaming [B]ALL [/B]Of them. From the looks of it, this hasn't shown any other cops, and all posters directed their comments towards this specific group, not the entire police force. You're taking this out of hand.

Think about those words and what they mean. It is up to the officer on how to act based on the level of [I]perceived [/I]threat. There is no standard policy to 'shoot all dogs'. It is up to the officers participating to react to the threats accordingly. Odds are, there will be an investigation of the shooting, and it will be found to be in the officer's favor. They won't be hung from the gallows nor will some divine entity kill them in a car crash, as another person in here wished.
So they shot a dog while being trigger happy, big fucking deal.
None of you know this side of the story, but his pet dragon woke up and was like: [IMG]http://bigorangebox.webs.com/photos/Funny-Pictures/Toothlesssmile2.gif[/IMG] The cop left....Immediately

[QUOTE=Melnek;21758199]So they shot a dog while being trigger happy, big fucking deal.[/QUOTE] police abusing their power.. no big deal at all. :downs:
Well, my stepmom is kind of a bitch,and by kind of I mean a HUGE bitch. She and my father are going through a divorce. To try and get him arrested and therefore make the settlement go in her favor, she called the cops saying he held her at gunpoint at like 5:30 in the morning. So the SWAT busted through my door at 6 in the morning while I ate some Wheaties. Funny part is there were no guns in the house so the cops were like "You're a bitch." and left.

[QUOTE=FreakyMe;21758198][I]'At the officer's discretion'[/I][/QUOTE] Officer is an asshole. I am not saying that the officers will be punished. I am saying they should be punished, or the one who did the shooting. Their discretion saying "Shoot the dog" is some pretty bad discretion and I really don't think they should have guns if they are that jumpy about shooting stuff. What if the 4 year old "looked like a threat"?
[QUOTE=Melnek;21758270]oh please cry me a fucking river, they didn't mindlessly kill a group of babies. they shot a dog.[/QUOTE] so you want the police to basically have unlimited power and if they abuse it's okay
[QUOTE=Melnek;21758270]oh please cry me a fucking river, they didn't mindlessly kill a group of babies. they shot a dog.[/QUOTE] Old ladies substitute dogs for babies you know.
They were rather trigger happy, they shot before the door was even fully open, I don't think I would've been suprised if they had shot the kid for "being aggresive" too.
[QUOTE=JDK721;21758249]wasn't she arrested for making a false claim like that?[/QUOTE] I would have thought so. When they came in a guy explained to me the situation and I thought that this might be a kind of good thing since she would get arrested. I had always thought making false claims got you arrested. I guess not. [QUOTE=skparagon;21758269]You have a p. fucked up life.[/QUOTE] I thought about making a thread about it as well as all the other crap she has pulled (There were more times the police barged into my house. They just weren't SWAT.). Then I realized "Oh wait. Nobody cares about random crap that has happened in your life." Sadly most of the GD has not noticed this.
[QUOTE=JDK721;21758294]so you want the police to basically have unlimited power and if they abuse it's okay[/QUOTE] when the fuck did I say that jesus christ you people just love blowing things out of proportion
