Thanks for sharing that. I genuinely enjoyed watching it more than I expected to.

If someone shoots a police dog, its often prosecuted as if you've shot a an actual police officer.
The double standard that exists between government employees vs. the rest of us, is tantamount to middle age feudalism.Serfdom - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
A recent video of the mirror opposite.
Police Dog Shot in Line of Duty Reunited with Cop | Video - ABC News
When I see the flagrant hypocrisy that exists between the two examples I begin questioning everything related to what we callpublic servicetoday.
Shooting a controlled and trained police dog sounds like a pretty dramatic difference to an un-controlled dog running around on someone's property. Are you implying they should be treated the same Grimsark? I don't have statistics, but I doubt many police dogs are commanded to attack people who aren't involved in violent crimes in the first place.
More people having the technology to record these shit stains and post them to youtube hardly means that the police in general are any more corrupt than in the past. Police brutality seems like a difficult thing to track, especially in something like a small town in, say, the deep south around, say, 1964.

Your comment is full of assumptions typical of someone that doesn't want to admit the obvious and so constructs a false dichotomy, justifying injustice.
The simple facts of the matter are that the vast majority of dogs that are shot by cops are household pets - or in the case of the video a ranch dog - that have no history of being aggressive, and were otherwise doing nothing unusual for any domesticated dog. Meanwhile, police dogs are trained attackers, bread to maim someone on command. Viciously. Not something most pets are known for.
As for the assumption that all people that have police dogs attacking them are involved in violent crimes... You are living in a bubble. Venture outside of it sometime and pay attention. It is far more likely that someone has cause to shoot a police dog, than a Cop has reason to shoot your family pet.
Please note. I do not apologize for ANY form of initiated violence. I condemn them all.
I am simply pointing out the hypocrisy involved in this false dichotomy we have been force fed as a functional justice system.
