Cops when there is a shooter loose, just going to get another pack of donuts,

vs.

Cops when a baby donkey runs towards them, "i'm in danger"!

OK, Israel is a terrible surname

Next time he should do the world a favor and shoot himself instead.

It's got an acorn!

“explains”

In the first article I read about this, the property explained that the officers didn't even consult the property about executing the search on their property. I'm certain if the officers had consulted the family, they could have arranged to put the animals in a safe location so the officers could search for the girl.

But they didn't, because the police don't give a fuck. I hope they fire this clown and the family sues the department for everything they have.

"I'm a cop. I can't just go on a call and not shoot something."

Officer Trenton Garner wrote that he fired one shot after the donkey charged toward officers and an attempt to scare it away with a Taser did not work, according to the Cedartown Police Department incident report.

"I tried all the ways I could force it to stop."

It's always brute force with cops. Hire the dumbest people and get the worst approaches to the easiest problems.

Not Lil Sebastian!

And let the cop rot in jail, right? Right??

I'm no animal expert , but I've heard that some farmers will put llamas on their land to protect their other livestock from coyotes (I guess llamas are known to trample coyotes?).

Do donkeys exhibit the same behaviors? I'm just attempting to hypothesize why a donkey would "charge" a group of K-9s.

The Polk County K-9 handler removed his Taser and activated its electrical arc in an attempt to discourage the animal, but Garner said the donkey continued toward them

He turned on a hand tazer. The donkey didn't respond to a 2 in arc of electricity, so he shot him. No warning shot, or anything either.

Okay, I thought I read it that way and I was confused as to what that was supposed to have done.

I suppose that compared to acorns falling on a car, this must've felt like a real threat to this cop. 🙄

Yes, donkeys can be protective.

a MINIATURE donkey no less. Friggin blood hounds that were with them were probably bigger and more aggressive than this thing. and after looking at the neckbeard back yard yolkel photo of the cop yeah it doesn't surprised me why he'd be so scared. hope the dude never comes across a squirrel with an acorn, he'll likely get PTSD.

"Israel also rejected allegations"
Fucking lmao.

It had 4 legs and fur. Might as well have been a dog to a pig.

Yup. Donkeys have been used as livestock protection for a very long time.

It’s a terrible lots of things.

Yes, but this was a baby miniature donkey.

A gang of armed thugs trespassing on private property don't have a right to self defense.

When the training is to shoot anything in your way that can't sue you, what do you expect. Fuck pigs.

Guess what, it is also a first name. Poor people.

Miniature Donkeys are known to cause hundreds of senseless human deaths each year. Shit, no, wait, that's cops.

A baby miniature donkey.

Tiny baby looking for interaction and affection.

It was in a pen.

They shouldn't have been in the pen anyway. Trespassing without a warrant.

Also. Who tf gets in a random pen on a farm?

You don't know what's in there.

Could be a bull out where you can't see. Or a moose. Emus. I mean. It's just plain stupid.

this cop thought an acorn was a gunshot and proceeded to unload into his own car, where he had a guy on the back...

Those are the urban pigs.

Was the donkey black?
