Let's see the body cam footage.

I dont think I could stomach it.

Somehow the cable caught on something and disconnected.

You've seen cops before. Cmon.

DOJ: Police Shooting Family Dogs has Become ‘Epidemic’

You people are way too quick to assume police are violent for no reason, just because they're police. Maybe they were just big fans of the jazz or suns, and being cops was just incidental.

Cops aren't allowed to he smart, and idiots can get pretty heated about their local sports teams. Are cops not allowed to support the teams of cities they live in? This may be a case of dumb sports hooligan violence that happened to come from a cop, not police shooting a dog for no reason

I guess we should just arm our pets or something

If your kneejerk reaction is to shoot something, you should not have a gun.

A sixteen year old toilet cleaner at mcdonalds has seen worse shit than your average cop, and has better deescalation skills

Well, cops basically never leave their cars, and its not as if they can just stay parked, so its not like they don't face real danger and real images of dismembered bodies and twisted metal in their jobs. I'm sure they have need of emergency services at least as often as that sixteen year old at McDonalds.

"Cops don't do anything bad because they sit in their cars" is the most idiotic thing I've seen in months

”A celebration of the New York Knicks' NBA championship turned tragic on Saturday in Canoga Park when Los Angeles police officers responding to a call about a screaming woman shot and killed the family dog, authorities and witnesses said.”

First sentence of the article that you didn’t read before deep-throating the boot would tell you the whole story, the what, when, where, why, and how. One click, one sentence, a second or two to read.

Edit- formatting error

There will never be a revolution in the US. Look at what you guys let the police do.

I'm just saying cops probably have a disproportionate need for emergency services compared to the example; a 16 year old who cleans bathrooms.

Driving is really dangerous, guys.

No argument on the de-escalation skills.

I don't understand how I'm being disproven here. Nothing in that contradicts my conjecture.

you haven't seen what people do to the toilets in mcdonalds

That's why they necessarily have deescalation skills.

No way this isn’t bait.

we never had actual wars like europe, or eurasia did. that finally convinced the country its enogh. america is truley living in a bubble. also by designed people are kept complacent by high enough wage, SPORTS, and culture wars.

Just open fire as soon as you see a police officer - he's probably out to shoot either you or your pet.

Also the utter lack of community, most people just don't socialize with anyone outside their house or work and even then it's mostly superficial, plus a shitty, hyper-individualist culture which exacerbates it.

We aren't a community of workers trying to ensure we all have enough, we are a country of individuals all trying to compete for what little scraps we can get our hands on that drop from the tables of the ruling class.

Hard to build a resistance effort when you don't trust your neighbors or your coworkers to be there for you when it counts.

america

Ahem, USAmerica.

Cuck

utter lack of community

Yes, communism is utterly anti-USAmerican, everybody else is weirded out by these definitely broken human beings that have that weirdness normalized by propaganda since birth.

cops spook easily in the US. dog was probably black.

I know your comment is just some ridiculous ragebait because nobody is that dumb but ...

This may be a case of dumb sports hooligan violence that happened to come from a cop, not police shooting a dog for no reason

Those are the same thing.

I watch bodycam vids on youtube because they're unscripted. People worrying about their dogs getting shot comes up enough to verify that the public (some subset) knows this happens. Goddamned cops. Poor dogs.

To beat a bad guy with a gun you need a good boy with a gun.

Arm all pets. I see no downsides.

Cop was probably a Lakers fan.

I'm not saying I care about those teams! I live in California!

I don’t understand how you could read the article and then think your comment was relevant

Look, LAPD officers can still be fans of the basketball teams from the city in which they live? Are we saying they cant? The Utah jazz and phoenix suns are lovely teams. Its fine if they can't, but as far as I'm aware; they are allowed.

And sports fans can get extremely violent after a rival team wins a game. It happens, and its a risk/cost we just accept as a society. The dog was wearing a Knicks jersey. Maybe if they didn't want their dog shot, they shouldn't have dressed her like that.

So it's possible this wasn't police violence, but non-police violence coming from a source that happened to ALSO be police.

Why would they be a Lakers fan? They could never enjoy home games, having seen how scary Los Angeles is. Being in a crowd of people who live there?

America's had plenty of wars!

The whiskey rebellion, the slavers' war, the coal wars...

Nobody was confused about what you said.

At least six people got the joke. I'm so fucking disappointed in you people.

Ah, it was a joke? I might’ve been confused about what you said! My bad, I missed it since it didn’t strike me as funny

Fuck you, learn to read.
