Choking Dog Dies After Police Pull Owners Over

it's a one-sided media story..

ie.. it means absolutely nothing and i can't believe a single thing from it.. except that maybe the dog did indeed die, and they did indeed get pulled over.

anything outside of that is speculation.

and please.. don't insult the officers of the law that keep you and i safe at night because he was more concerned for human safety than that of a pet.

i believe the officer was completely justified in his actions.

quote from the officer: "are you willing to crash into a family of 4, and kill them, for a dog?"

'nuff said.

Ok so I understand that people get emotionally and Psychologically attached to animals and YES the officer may have acted a little less than kosher by cursing at the dude but the officers main job is to protect the PEOPLE not the animals and at the rate of 100mph the guy really could have killed himself, his girlfriend others on the road and the dog.
 
I can't imagine an accident and people being killed because someone was too upset to drive, no matter what the reason. Someone driving at that rate of speed, not pulling over when lights and sirens were activated, the officers have no idea what to expect after they finally get him stopped, on a highway at night. It's lucky no one was killed because of some guys bad judgement.
 
:iagree: My sentiments exactly. Sorry, Public safety is far more needed than an animal. Yes, even if it was mine. No light, no siren, no training---- bad call on the motorist part.
 
What I think was after he pulled the guy over, he could have at least called animal control or gotten another officer to take it to a nearby vet, where is the danger in that?
I've seen good cops take animals to a vet before, I was watching Cops once and they took 2 pit bulls to a vet after they got in the way of some crazy man trying to shoot their owners.

The thing you need to realize about cops is that they do things for the cameras. The officer was trying to assess the situation and calm down the assailant, who by his own admission is bipolar, this is the first thing an officer must do before anything else. We don't even know for sure from the video if there was even a dog in the vehicle, people have told worse lies than they have a dieing dog to get out of a ticket:)
 
I spent 2 years in Law enforcement. Yes, a COP.
the officer was justified in what he did.
I'll bite my tongue regarding pulling an officer off the streets(when there are too few ofiicers as it is) to take a dog to the vet.
