Here's a thread where a typical "cop shoots dog" would have been preferrable over this.
Some facts are missing, here.
Police Officer Dog Haters are they all Muslim or are they being trained by Muslims ?
What the ****?!
Cop just saving bullets.
I love my dogs like children. If true, i dont have the words.
What the hell is it with citizens who jettison their constitutional rights and allow the constabulary to search their vehicle as a result of a simple “civil infraction” traffic stop?
I posit that anyone who agrees to a vehicle search in these circumstances because “I haven’t broken any laws” and “I’ve got nothing to hide” is no US citizen at all.
Tell Larry Law to get a warrant.
Tell Larry Law that you will wait for the K-9 patrol.
Tell Larry Law that you will only open your vehicle when thay have properly executed warrant and...by-the-way...while we wait...I’m calling my lawyer (look up at the nearest highway billboard-—that is your lawyer!)
“prescription drugs belonging to the passenger were found”
I call BS
is there some law that says the public cant sue in civil court
Its OK, folks. Houston’s Head Lezzie in Charge has apologized....
Tuesday, she spoke before City Council, compressing her story into three short minutes. It got an immediate response from Mayor Annise Parker.
“Let me give you a public apology right now on behalf of the city of Houston,” Parker told Garcia. “I don’t know what airhead — there’s another word in my mind but I’m not going to say it — would throw, you wouldn’t put a kid on the side of the road. You shouldn’t put someone’s pet on the side of the road.”

This is so sick and sad. That poor dog, almost blind, alone and terrified and without food and water for 3 days, wondering why it’s friend left it. And it was TOO MUCH DAMNED BOTHER for the cops to make one damn call to a shelter two effing blocks away.
“What the hell is it with the cops in this country and their love of animal abuse?”
The job attracts many sadistic bullies so of course they love to torture animals. They do it to humans too anytime they can get away with it.
I know lots of cops and more than half laugh about doing this type of sh**. Probably even more talk about it in private. Keeps the job “exciting”.
Here's a thread where a typical "cop shoots dog" would have been preferrable over this.
This is outright animal abuse, he should be fired, stripped of all benefits, and charged the maximum under the law.
This sickens me.Just what the hell has happened to Law Enforcement these days?This is revolting and someone should have to answer for the death of that animal.
Really? On Highway 59?
Does anybody use their turn signal when changing lanes on 59?
Turning on your turn signal just causes the person in the other lane to speed up. How did this guy get singled out?

Is anyone else getting sick and tired of seeing these stories every frickin’ DAY?
Too bad this didn’t happen in Bellaire, a suburb of Houston. The cops there routinely pick up strays in the middle of the night and the next morning they take them to my brothers veterinary clinic where they take care of them until homes can be found. Not all cops are dog haters. This happens about every 1 or 2 months
The problem is the preponderance of ex-military men in police departments. Too many view their taxpayer employers as they did the enemies in Iraq. And all the military equipment our police now have reinforces this attitude.
Apologies don’t mean squat. Officers who act this way should be fired within 24 hours of such incidents. Better yet, no former military personnel should be hired until they have been back in civilian life for ten years.
I believe it’s a two major factors are involved:
1. Confirmational bias — Single sourcing news from your preferred ideological news source.
2. Internet providing that preferred ideological news source.
This has probably happened just as often as pre-internet era, we just didn’t know it as stories like these rarely if ever made national news.
So rest assured, as you read this and get enraged, KOS, DU, DB, HuP will probably never see it as they suffer from the same confirmational bias as some of us — include me to. I’ve been guilty.
Interesting, my spell checker turned confirmational into confrontational. New phrase is invented. Confrontational Bias.
The officer needs to be fired pronto..whats with these punks nowadays?
