To play the devil's advocate, the dog in question jumped at the police officers, and the guy was clearly trying to provoce a reaction. Not saying what they did was right, but having a 40 kilo pitbull jump at you can get ugly fast. |

They had the gun in hand already. No idea if they had tazers. And that is also why I strongly oppose arming police officers when doing routine tasks. The debate comes up every now and then in Norway, and fact is that if you give a man a hammer, every problem becomes a nail. |

Blaming the police is the easy way out, but I think that the only one responsible for what it happened is the owner. Had he not been so irresponsible, and a complete jerk towards the authority, none of this would have happened. I mean, filming the cops (or the military) is forbidden in many countries for a good reason. He was issued a warning, and kept doing it. Not really smart. And when he noticed that he was going to be arrested, he tried to lock the dog in the car (his only good move, for once!), but left the windows open. So it escaped and did the "right thing" for a dog, trying to defend his master. And if you think about it, the first reaction wasn't killing the dog (else they'd have shot straight away). They did try to get him under control and grab the leash; and only shot after the dog lunged at them. A Rottweiler is not a threat to be taken lightly, particularly at such short distance. Had it been a Chihuahua, it wouldn't have been shot. Also, after shooting at the dog several times, the policeman did take a last shot to finish him off when he was already lying on the ground. Some say that he was just being cruel picking on the defenseless animal... but to be honest, I'd even see as giving it a merciful death. Maybe shooting him in the first place wasn't the right thing to do; but leaving it agonizing, suffering and mutilated, would have been even worse. The policeman probably only wanted to "neutralize the threat" as they call it; but the result is the same, and probably the best for such a gravely wounded dog. Btw, tazer guns don't have the same effects on animals as they do on humans, so the outcome isn't guaranteed to be the same. Most likely, it would have killed the dog in a painful agony, and then we'd all be "omg fuck America, they tazed a dog to death!" which would be the same shit. No, I'm not happy about the situation and wish the poor dog hadn't suffered this way. It wasn't his fault at all, and it's a shame that he ended paying for human idiocy (both the owner's and the police's). |

O i agree 100%. there was indeed a big Rotty charging a cop, and I understand him shooting it. Nevertheless, an animal died in that video, which is why I said I shouldn't have watched it... |
