Why are you so hard on that hero? It’s not as though there are any unsolved rapes, robberies or murders he can spend his time investigating.....
Seriously, glad you and yours are safe.
This new trend of cops shooting dogs has become EPIDEMIC!!
Same with cops slamming people around,shooting at them with children in the car,and all manner of other excesses,because they either thought their “lives were in danger” or were made to feel “disrespected”-—it’s more likely this latter factor that’s makes the adrenalin flow,and handily gets conflated with the “my life was in danger” angle.As has been suggested here, there demonstrably is a dynamic which is manifesting itself—the police mindset, that feeds on itself,and creates this vicious cycle, is all of a piece with the growing dstrust of ALL authority,starting with the pain currently being inflicted on us by the Feds on all levels, and it’s not gonna change anytime soon without a concerted effort by a national movement of citizens willing to make a direct and blunt statement to Law Enforcement in general, rather than the enfeebled effort that this local West Columbus incident would predictably become. But where to begin,how to get it off the ground?
They never even did any of this they never followed up with any of the witnesses or my neighbors
