Or, they could've let him continue to wander around harmlessly in the canyon. Either way.
I just can't even get behind the idea of LE using dogs to attack people regardless of whether they pose a serious threat or not.
Its barbaric and should have no place in our society, especially against our own citizens.
Yes, they should have. There was no effort to de-escalate the situation. They gave one command and sent in the dog. I have worked in a prison and talked down schizophrenics with violent histories. All it takes is time and patience and you can get them to agree to come peacefully. They got the guy to climb out of the canyon and just gave up from there.Oh, so an officer should have to fight someone tripping on LSD?
After the pepper-spray and tazer failed to stop the attacker, it was either,
A.) Go hand-to-hand with some drugged up lunatic who is apparently immune to pain, and risk life and limb.

B.) Release the hound.
Good police work. Good dog.

Maybe.
But I don't know the full story before the cameras started rolling.
I agree.
We should just use hand-grenades when they barricade in spider-holes, attics, and garages.

LMAO @ "split second". What danger was there? He was naked. No chance of him having a weapon, they could see his hands as well. Stop boot licking, bruh.When you worked "in a prison" (Wisconsin), did you commonly second-guess other officers split-second decisions?
You sound like a real joy to work with.
Yes, we did because doing shit like that (using more force than necessary) creates climate issues and causes violence (inmate on staff, inmate on inmate) to increase and makes the job more dangerous. Using the least amount of force necessary is the best practice and those idiots went right to deadly force on a naked man they out numbered.When you worked "in a prison" (Wisconsin), did you commonly second-guess other officers split-second decisions?

Absolutely disgusting actions by these cops. They are cowards and should be punished for their overreaction.

Officer justified K-9 attack because the man was on drugs and thus had "a high tolerance to pain,"

Cops are bad people.I'm confused on what we're supposed to argue over.
What lawless planet do you live on!?...they decided to arrest him for no reason ...
For realz!?Bouncers in a night club have a tougher job than police.
Lol. You're quite the gem.Bouncers in a night club have a tougher job than police.
They actually have to remove people themselves. Not with guns and other weapons. In this case a dog.
And bouncers deal with everyone who is on drugs or fucked up drunk
Kong is one of these War Room CANS I was talking about.For realz!?
How many bouncers do you know that respond to domestic violence, shots fired, and/or bank robbery calls?
