Officer safety is the mostest importantest thingy of all. Nothing else matters. Absolutely nothing. Not getting the address right. Not respecting the rights of the innocent citizen who now has to deal with a dead family member.
Only the cop matters.

Gawd, that is not what I am saying.
The issue I was discussing was that the cop had to shoot the dog after it attacked him , even though it was the cop’s mistake that caused it.
Had he shot the dog for a different reason, I would be more concerned.
Cops are human, and like everyone else, they aren’t perfect. How many times, during a home break in call, have they gone to the wrong address ?
