Yeah, I know! I just wanted to point out the mayor said he thought it was something for the garden.Keep reading - I'm over it.

She is, she's been ready to suspend the constitution and give you guys free passes to the circus, so if she says your wrong, you've really got your head in your ass.Jeebus, and I thought *I* was a cop apologist.
The cops were in the wrong. Get over it.
You know that is the user formerly known as "smcop" right? Of course he is on the cops' side...he is oneJeebus, and I thought *I* was a cop apologist.

I haven't seen any pictures of the inside of the house to post an opinion.What is the point of walking through the pets' remains and tracking it all over the house? Is that more bravery and solid police work?
Well, I dont think I would have been in the mindset to take pictures if I went through this ordeal. Cant find fault for that.I haven't seen any pictures of the inside of the house to post an opinion.
I figured they own a camera, and if they were that upset someone would have taken a picture or two.
You know darn well what happens when you shoot an animal. You expect them to be in a frame of mind to not only take pictures of the resulting bloodbath, but to put them up on line as well?I haven't seen any pictures of the inside of the house to post an opinion.

...get awards.What I am wondering, is what would have happened if this had happened at the house of someone who owns a gun? If he had thought that he was being robbed (split secind decision, as was being used to explain the police actions) he reaches for the gun, he is shot by the police (who were making a split-second descision) what happens now? You still going to defend their actions? I think in some houses in this area, the police make that kind of raid there may be a few police being carried out along with the innocent homeowner.
Well, apples and oranges.. Now you are saying a HUMAN, not an animal, got shot. That would be a BAD raid, or a check in the "unsuccessful Raid" column.What I am wondering, is what would have happened if this had happened at the house of someone who owns a gun?

I am going to think the same thing I think now. If the mayor and his family are not involved in the drug trade, then this is tragic. It's tragic that the dogs are dead. It would be more tragic if a citizen or a police officer were dead or injured!What I am wondering, is what would have happened if this had happened at the house of someone who owns a gun?

As long as a cop wasn't hurt it goes in the successful raid column.What I am wondering, is what would have happened if this had happened at the house of someone who owns a gun?

Do you think everytime the police are seen on the way to the door, it changes the type of warrant from must knock to no knock? At what point does this change? Is this just for drug raids.I am going to think the same thing I think now. If the mayor and his family are not involved in the drug trade, then this is tragic. It's tragic that the dogs are dead. It would be more tragic if a citizen or a police officer were dead or injured!
It is easy to judge these police officers after the fact! At the time they conducted this raid, they were given information by detectives that the home had dope inside of it. Our training and experience teaches us people who are in the drug trade are known to have weapons.
YOU DO NOT HAVE TO HAVE A CRIMINAL HISTORY TO BE A CRIMINAL! There is always your first arrest isn't there?
The police applied and received a warrant. The police were going to a house and were comprimised and acted.
Tragic for the dogs. I wished that didn't happen. However, based on the facts I have read, the police did their job.

I learned that they coined a word for it. Google puppycide and see how many entries pop up. Sometimes their not only shooting the intended peoples dogs, but also the neighbors dogs just for good measure.And apparently it IS common practice to take out pets even if there is no threat.... this is bullshiat...
Calvo said he wants federal officials to examine policies that he said have led Prince George's police officials to serve warrants on wrong addresses and kill family pets before.
In once such case, Prince George's sheriff's deputies executed a warrant on the home of Frank and Pamela Myers of Accokeek in November. The Myers told sheriffs that they had the wrong address as their dog began barking from the yard. The couple asked if they could retrieve their dog, but deputies refused. Minutes later, two shots were fired and the dog was killed, according to a notice of a tort claims filed by attorney Michael J. Winkelman. The Myers were never charged and nothing was seized from their house.
No, there are other types of raids. It depends on the situation at each scene. As much as you would like us to, we don't have a mold for each of these things. These are real time fluid operations that have to be dealt with accordingly with the officer's perception at the time of the incident. That is why the courts don't Monday Morning quarterback as so many here are, without having ALL of the facts.Do you think everytime the police are seen on the way to the door, it changes the type of warrant from must knock to no knock?

But it apparently wasnt shown until a few days later and it was a warrant where they were to knock. Because a BOZO police officer heard an old woman scream, he felt the need to give instructions to bust down the door.No, there are other types of raids. It depends on the situation at each scene.

Remember originally there was no warrant at all! Now, the police have proven they had a warrant, but that still isn't good enough!
Can't do drugs within 3 years prior to applying :shrug:But it apparently wasnt shown until a few days later and it was a warrant where they were to knock. Because a BOZO police officer heard an old woman scream, he felt the need to give instructions to bust down the door.
Tell me, exactly what qualifcations is required to become a police officer?

Sometimes. However, that doesn't really matter much. Just because someone doesn't have a criminal history doesn't mean they are not a criminal. Also, this would not account for other people who may be in the residence. I think that the fact that 32 pounds of dope being delivered to these peoples house is lost on all of you!Question?
When police are called to a house for any given reason, isnt the house address checked in some system before the police actually arrive, so you guys can be told what kind of calls have previously been placed from this address and what the people that have listed this address before in the past have been arrested for?
