Quote History Quoted:
Theres an old video out there of a pursuit or traffic stop with an armed suspect. Cop called for backup. Plenty of cops arrived. Some bozo decides to let the dog go. Im pretty sure they were going to light up this guy anyway for making a movement
What do you expect an armed person to do when a dog is coming at them? Perp goes for the dog. Cops light up the scene. The perp and their dog. Dogs twitching on the ground with 20 holes in it as they get a blanket to drape over the dog
Cops stand around wondering what went wrong? Almost felt bad for the handler after the fact, he was a bit more than upset his dog was dying

Thats where I'm at. I've seen too many dead K9 videos because a handler put them into that situation.
Fuck the POS with the knife. I just dont see the need to put the dog in such a bad position? Why put a cop in a position he needs to kill someone to save the dog that was put into the situation by the cops? The shooter got close enough he might have been a stabbing victim if his shots werent so effective. This really could have ended much worse because of impatience.
They had plenty of cops there to make sure the guy wasnt going to get away. Shoot his as if he tries to enter another home because it might be occupied and they cant guarantee he wont hurt someone. Shoot him if he rushes someone. Until then just run him down, get containment and beat his ass into submission with less lethal from safe distance.
Its not a race. Mistakes get made when you hurry.
