Topeka Cop Shoots Family Dog ( Body Cam Video)

tommy needs to google pit bull bite and then try not to throw up at the images... taser or baton LOL

And you need to stop looking at fear porn. Its clouding your judgement. How about reading one of these many stories of pitts saving people time and time again? Read a few of these and maybe your pit bull nightmares will stop keeping you up at night.

I still can't get over him suggesting to ring the doorbell on a potential home invasion. That has to be one of the stupidest things I've read even by War Room standards.

Its happened at my own house more than once. Alarm goes off, cops show up and knock on my door. We talk for a few minutes. I show him Id, he looks around till hes satisfied and leaves. No one was shot that day.
 
He was prepared. He had a gun.

So the proper way to be prepared for a dog in a yard you are looking in is to have a gun ready to shoot it. Really ? How about preparing in such a way that doesnt have you shoot peoples innocent pets ?
 
insults are the last bastion of an inferior intellect


tell us again how you are "trained" and me and all other cops are "pussies"


you are really making your case here lol.. with all your "training" you would know that dog was not going to stop at some verbal command.. FYI my uncle was a K9 officer for 20yrs and my neighbor is currently one i have also been trained on drug and bomb sniffing dogs so yeah theres that :) guess what they tell us to do when a dog is charging us ?

Let me guess, they tell you to blow its brains out ? That sounds like real intelligent training. Feel a little fear ? Shoot something. I never said all cops are pussies. Ive had many friends who were cops that were great guys. I think anyone who thinks the only defense against a dog that "might" be coming to attack you is to fill it full of holes is a pussy. There are many cops that find themselves in similiar situations and dont kill the dog. Dontsnitch posted a video of one itt. Was that cop irresponsible for not shooting the dog ?
 
I just keep going back to when the same exact thing happened at my house several times and the cops came to my door each time. Nothing was shot or killed those days. Why couldnt this cop have done that ? He went too far sneaking around in the back yard with gun drawn. There has to be some acknowledgement of degrees of danger here. We cant just say well an alarm went off, someone could be getting murdered, Red team go!!. We have to look at the individual situation. It was absolutely fine for the cops to knock on my door first. They didnt think they were neglecting to handle the situation correctly and they didnt think they put themselves in danger either. So again why couldnt he have done that ?

I appreciate your fervour and your love for dogs, I just don't think we'll see eye-to-eye here.

Hopefully in the future, alarm companies will always alert cops of homes that have dogs in them, and we won't have to discuss this.
 
You're suggesting a cop retreats from a possible crime in progress, because of a pitbull in a yard?


Ok Ive said it before but no one has answered. How come when my alarm has gone off in the past and the cops came, they knocked on my door and spoke with me ? Because there are degrees of danger. I get that "ya never know" but cmon. Cops get called to these false alarms in rich hoods all the time. they are actually annoyed by them. They came to my door and knocked. I answered, showed ID And let him look around. Sure if theres no answer in 60 seconds then hes going to look around the yard, in windows etc. But take 60 seconds in this case to make sure youre not going to come across the homeowner, a child or a pet while investigating. 60 seconds is all it would have taken. Would that have been too long ? What if that cop came to my house and didnt knock but rather went straight to the yard and was confronted by my dog? My dog dies for no reason. And what if upon seeing my dog murdered I go temporarily insane and shoot the cop ? Do i have any defense ?

I appreciate that DS. And to be honest i blame protocol or lack of in this specific situation more than i do the cop. And yeah the alarm company notifying the cop would help, but only if the cop had a plan once he was notified other than "well if he charges me im shooting" which seems to be the default response now.
How about when they serve people at heir house ? They let themselves into your yard through a gate, your dog charges and they kill him. Dog and owner did nothing wrong yet dog dies. Some kind of training and new protocol need to be put in place.
 
I'll just add that a charging pit is nothing to screw around with. Sure, it may back down at the last second... Or it may kill you. I handled a coroners case for an adult female who got her throat ripped out by one when she walked up to the owners house answering a job posting. It charged around a corner, knocked her down, and literally removed her trachea from her body when she hit the ground. Dead. Didn't even have time to roll to her stomach to try to cover herself.
 
This is the way if should had been handled.

 
Cop did nothing wrong here. Lazy should have had it on a leash
 
How about instead of guns, train up a sick breed of dogs and give distress call units K9 dogs?
 
What a sad situation. I don't blame the cop though. He's not the dog whisperer with ample time on his hands to assess if the charging dog is bluffing or it actually means business. His job description doesn't include hand to hand combat with k9s either.

There's been plenty of cases of trigger happy cops killing family pets but I don't think this was one of them. I do think a bit on how to handle dogs should be part of leos training.
 
What a stud that officer is. Kick, evade, taser.

Maybe I'm wrong but didn't the black cop pull out his gun? It was the other cop who came and tased the dog. It's silly that the dog can attack a random person and won't be put down unless it actually takes a chunk out of the person, no matter how hard it tries.

I thought the black cop pulled out a taser gun. Maybe I'm wrong.

EDIT: Nope, you're right
