Is it possible that the dog was aggressive?

Maybe. Aggressively hoping to get a treat.

I dunno.....

I have a Blue Healer...and despite that she is trained and a pretty good dog.

I still worry a bit about her a bit. I know if somehow was aggressive towards me she would be in their face...but I'm concerned a little that she might misinterpret something. Especially when someone might be walking another dog.

I think that goes with the territory...

Agreed. Such a policy would go far toward cooling off the hotheads.

Your difficulties comprehending what I’ve written (or are you distorting what I’ve written on purpose), what is written in the newspapers, and the biased information and interpretations that you seem to actually propose as “facts” or “evidence”lead me to conclude that posting to you is pointless.

It might have attacked the people, it might not have.

Officer Mark Condon flat out said the dog did attack, and that the attack caused injuries. He also said these injuries were documented:

_____________________________________________________________

"all three of us sustained injuries from the attack, which were documented by the Precinct 4 Constables' Office."

_____________________________________________________________

It's been a week. Why is he not releasing the evidence?

Oh, I comprehended perfectly.

Why would you expect a child, who just witnessed his dog unlawfully shot at close range, to take “It’s okay, I’m a cop” to mean “You’re safe, I’m a cop.”

Do you typically feel safe when your pet, your child, your spouse or your loved one is shot before your eyes?

Would you take a declaration of the shooter’s occupation as comforting or reassuring?

When you have objective evidence of any “injuries”, do ping me.

Still spinning and distorting my prior posts? This is why it’s pointless to post to you. Now if the cop hadn’t said he was a cop the kid would have more reason to wonder if an armed gunman was in the neighborhood, going house to house. And if that cop HADN’T identified himself -you would have been certain he was hiding something.
Why would I have photographs? I don’t have any more direct evidence than you do. Neither of us has sufficient evidence either way but strangely, I’m the only one that knows that.
PLEASE continue raving that you know what happened and that our mutual inability to post photographs on this thread MUST mean that your irrational declarations are correct because after all - the most impartial court is to be found in the news media.

So much anger, spite, ill-will. Depraved mind, much?
