Does anyone know if this will make the 11:00 news? I'd really like to see this segment.

Pandora said:I think they will. I'm sure it has sparked some public outrage and rightfully so. I believe in the truth and what is fair. I love animals and I would like to have faith that law enforcement does things right but in this case, something doesn't jive well with me and the story they are telling about this particular incident.
I hope the owners continue to push. A police officer who feels the need to unload half of his ammo on a dog when he carries a stick and mace is using entirely too much force. The dog was hit so many times they say he was just about decapitated.
My parents own 180-200 pound Malamutes. There is no way that this Shepherd comes close.cattitude said:And rightly so.
And Lenny, I doubt that was a 180-200 pound dog. I had Shepherds all my life. Last one I had topped out at 120 and he was large....and a baby.
And to whoever said the owner looked like a nutcase...well let somebody shoot one of my dogs and I guarantee you, you will never see a bigger nutcase.
I agree with VV, he shouldn't be an officer of the law or carry a gun. HE sounds like the nutcase to me.
And multiple gunshots? Please...

With live rounds, perhaps?vanbells said:Fire the bastard.

They are claiming that the dog broke free from a choker chain and attacked the officer.
This is page #2 of the St. Mary's County Today's photos on this incident (not sure if they were up before - I think they are new) and they show blood. Notice the tiny piece of chain? Notice how the leash has been dragged across the blood? And the news man held up 7 bullet casings in a plastic baggie. This was a scene in which deadly force was used and the Sheriff's Office didn't collect the evidence?

You r passin judgement based on one side of the story. Officers really don't just shoot dogs for no reason.
HEY.. a voice of reason comes from the fog....Lenny said:You have obviously not been reading the forums in the four years you've been a member or you would know quite clearly I am not a member of the constabulatory, nor a rabid "gunz for all" wild-eye. You have obviously not read the article which lead off this thread but have relied entirely on the emotional and one-sided speculations of other posters.
Once you've gotten grounded in reality, then I will pay attention to your drivelling.
I would guess those seven casings weren't from the officers gun, but were being used by the news crew for dramatic effect.. and reading these posts, it all worked just the way they hoped it would..Pandora said:Did you watch the news?
