what the fuck is wrong with this guy

Well, for starters, he's a cop.

No.

 

[SmithnCo]

On my phone, sorry for the mobile link. Looks like no charges against the officer.

If you can get off for killing humans, there's no way killing an animal would ever amount to anything more than "sensitivity training" anyway. >:|

This. I don't know why anyone is shocked no charges were brought against the cop.

If cops can get away with riddling innocent people full of holes because they looked at the police officer wrong...why would anyone think a cop will be punished for shooting a puppy?

 

[ClayKavalier]

No way in hell I'm actually watching this, but why the fuck would you shoot a puppy. Even if it is being aggressive, even extremely aggressive, why can't you just use pepper spray or kick it in the nose or something?

If you're simultaneously having to deal with other things like an aggressive owner or something it might be justified, but it seems like cops have a lot of ways to deal with a dog before shooting it.

 

[evil solrac v3.0]

No.

yes actually.

“Dupre reasonably believed that he needed to use lethal/deadly force in defense of his own life.”

brave my ass. he's a punk simple as that.

 

[A Human Becoming]

Well, for starters, he's a cop.

#notallcops

That dog was at such a distance, not growling or approaching the officer, I call BS the cop was in any danger. Fuck that guy and the investigator.

 

[Boom Boom Pow]

And wtf is this 'paid leave' bullshit? How on earth is that a type of punishment?

"Yeah, go home, put your feet up and relax, doing whatever the fuck you want...AND get paid for it! That'll teach you!".

are people on gaf really that densed? it's not a punishment. They get put on paid leave while the city investigates.

you got an issue with it? blame the police union.

the shooting is fucked up, but should the owners not be charged for allowing their 3 pitbull dogs out into the public?

 

[Reset]

Worse, he was muslim

Nah, that's only happen in Europe.

they didn't "allow" them. they got loose. dogs get loose all the time.

 

[ISOM]

I honestly think police officers should get intense psych evaluations before they are able to get a gun and badge. There are too many psychopaths as officers honestly.

 

[lemmykoopa]

It's hard to see how big the dog is in the video. Is a 6 month old pitbull already dangerous if it gets aggressive? Do they have a lot of strength already at that age?

 

[Boom Boom Pow]

they didn't "allow" them. they got loose. dogs get loose all the time.

no they don't if these people are responsible owners. or did dogs learn to open fences now?

considering how many stories you hear of pitbull biting people, i can see why the initial 911 caller was afraid.

the owners should be charged with public endangerment at least

 

[Imm0rt4l]

He was just looking to shoot and kill something. Fucking sociopath.

 

[Fjordson]

Absolute scum. Shit like makes zero sense to me.

also lmao @ people defending this in even the most minute way possible. Fucking insane.

 

[lemmykoopa]

What if the dog that the cop confronted ran away from the cop and bit a small child that was playing outside in the face a few minutes later? What would people then say? I'm not saying the cop did the right thing. But it's a difficult situation. Let us just not forget that there are a lot of incidents with these types of dogs in the us, a lot which don't end well, especially if kids are involved.

 

[elrechazado]

It was coming right for him!


/s

 

[BlitzerRadic]

The video looks bad but everyone forgets that these were aggressive dogs that probably would have bitten innocent people had they not been able to hide in a car.

Even if the cop didnt shoot those dogs, they deserved to be put down, imo.

 

[Hieberrr]

Paid leave... for fuck's sake...

[minx]

Hard for anyone to defend that.

You would think people would understand what paid leave is. An investigation is being done. Calm down people no matter what an officer does there is almost always paid leave until investigation is completed.

Wow.

Probably gonna earn a ban if I don't get this thread out of my subs asap. Peace brehs.

 

[Floridian]

Jesus christ there's truly a defense force for everything.

 

[minx]

Just once I'd like to read a story about a cop admitting they made a huge mistake killing someone or something and being actually remorseful about it.

But nah, they stay lying and trying to cover shit up. Fucking gang of psychopaths paid for with tax dollars. I fucking hate the police.

Google is your friend. But you are too dense to do that. Instead you would rather spread your ignorance. I fucking hate people like you.

[MCee]

I love how a cop's first instinct is always bang, bang, bang, kill a non-threat, and get a paid vacation. You'd think "law enforcement" training would include how to properly deal with an animal, but then again they don't know how to respect human lives so nothing out of the ordinary here. It's comin' right for us!

You see these types of people all of the time whether it be a cop who doesn't deserve to be on patrol or any random citizen who cowers in fear at any dog bigger than a chihuahua. Any loose animal would be a "threat" to the wrong person. With proper instincts and training a situation like this can be resolved quite quickly and with no injury or dare I say death.

Quick draw officers are coming to the forefront of mainstream and social media with new ways of being exposed on camera and the times will not let these scum keep walking free after murder.

Common sense, training and restraint. Use them you POS

Are you joking?

Fuck that fucking pos cop. God damn, he needs to be fired at the very least. Fucking cop unions won't let him though. Jesus Christ, I'm mad at this. If that were my dog, I'd be out for fucking blood. Ugh.

Yeah, I agree. We can't blame cops for murdering everything to make sure no one gets killed.



Wut?

 

[Jackson]

Yes. Yes he is joking. You fell for it.

 

[speculawyer]

When a cop shoots my dog, they are gonna have to shoot me next.

 

[DontBeThatGuy]

They charged at him, eh? *watches video, hears kiss-y, come here noises*... I am not surprised.

 

[slit]

Okay I'm not watching that video, but can someone explain to me how an adult male's life could be in danger from a puppy, even if it was Pit Bull?

 

[params7]

Lets see officers convicted for killing innocent humans and then we can be surprised about no charges for killing animals.

 

[Boom Boom Pow]

Okay I'm not watching that video, but can someone explain to me how an adult male's life could be in danger from a puppy, even if it was Pit Bull?

have you seen the video? it's not a puppy. it's a full size dog. The only puppy here is that it was less than 1 years old

 

[Pathos]

i wonder how many lives he saved by taking care of that vicious mutt

 

[slit]

have you seen the video? it's not a puppy. it's a full size dog. The only puppy here is that it was less than 1 years old

Uh, did you not read the part where I said I'm not watching the video?

 

[GK86]

Uh, did you not read the part where I said I'm not watching the video?

The dog wasn't even close to the cop.

 

[BlitzerRadic]

No, I'm not kidding. Any dog that is aggressive and bites or attempts to bite a person who didn't provoke it is a walking time bomb imo.

 

[Boom Boom Pow]

Uh, did you not read the part where I said I'm not watching the video?

then don't ask a question full of assumptions if you haven't seen the video?

it's a grown dog. not a puppy if you're thinking of a 4" cute puppy wagging its tail

 

[TheBaldEmperor]

yes actually.



brave my ass. he's a punk simple as that.

Except that isn't reasonable. So for starters, when the question is asked "what's wrong with him?" you could start with saying he is unreasonable and is poor at assessing danger. He shouldn't be a cop, but that isn't what makes him the way he is.

 

[slit]

then don't ask a question full of assumptions if you haven't seen the video?

What the hell is this?!? I was asking a question, or are you that dense?

 

[Aselith]

Why the fuck did he do that?

it's literally a puppy

dog is 6 months old and the puppy stage doesn't end until 2 years at a minimum

also you can barely see the dog in the actual video, but even so it doesn't look like a "full grown dog" to me

if this was any other breed you wouldn't be defending this

Yes he would, there is a defense force for EVERYTHING. EVERYTHING

That's how it currently works. Then again, your definition of intense might be different.

look at the photo that appeared in it. you can see the photo of the "puppy". the only thing puppy about it is the naming convention.

if this was other breeds, they wouldn't be that size at 6 months, except for the larger-breed dog, which i wouldn't be defending either.

this 6 month puppy is a big dog.

Puppy

Anyway, this si going away from my original point in that the owner should be held responsible for their dogs being loose in the neighborhood

So the dog deserved to die just because it's big? Even though it showed no signs of aggression? Jesus fucking Christ.
