Funny post. The cop shows up at the wrong house (either by direction or because of an address reading problem), the cops have their weapons drawn and then they knock on the door. Inconsistency at its best. If they truly feared for their lives, why knock on the door?

The legal residents of the house open the door and the legal dog runs to greet the "visitor". The actions of this dog are consistent with the actions of any dog. While the cops are shooting this dog, the owner sees a stranger leave his neighbors house. Now he is at fault for not pointing it out to these cops.....Interesting take. While the cops aren't to blame, the legal resident getting his dog blown away should be smart enough to realize the stranger could be the perp that set off an alarm, which must have been silent because the cops nor the neighbor could hear it, and he is at fault because he didn't do the cops job for them.

Interesting that the police not being smart enough to read an address, or smart enough to identify the behaviour of the dog, are participating in appropriate behaviour. While the civilian should have been smart enough to recognize the criminal exiting the correct house, while experiencing his dog being shot and while nearly being hit with ricocheted rounds.......

Nice attitude, copper!

Let me also add, a 100 lb. dog is significantly bigger than 2-ltr. bottle. Training should be provided to hit moving targets.
