These police pulled over an innocent family on vacation by false information, made them all get on the ground and brutally murdered a sweet little puppy with a high powered shotgun.
Do you think that these police should be promoted? How about a paid vacation at taxpayers expense for their consequences(I mean reward)

Do you think that this type of standard behavior by police is right.
Here is a cops response to the killing.
Do you think it's right.
1. The police are doing a felony stop, thier info is that this car contains the perosn who did a armed robbery. So they beleive a armed person is in that car and they are dangerous.
2. don't matter what people look like a 12 year old with a gun can be a killer or a granny with a gun can be. So the police will follow procedure to do a felony stop.
3. Procedure for a felony stop is to get two or three police cars on the scene as soon as possible, you have the cars staged behind the suspects car. You order them out and get them handcuffed and on the ground.
You then leave the doors of the car open ( they have to stay open to do this correctly) you then have a officer do a clearing walk of the auto, and then finally have them open the trunk to check to be sure no one is hiding in the trunk.
4. Dog is not obeying any commands and officers are bite or attacked by dogs, so these dogs could have been a danger.
5 I happen to know the officers invovled in this personally, and they are wonderful officers who do a good job and would not want to harm anyone unless they had to. And they love animals and do regret what they did, but it was done by procedure and would happen again in the same situation.
Actually when the man stood up, he is lucky he was not either maced , tazered or even shot, since he was disobeying a command to stay down and his actions could have been considered an attack on the officer.
Plus once they were arrested if they had keep thier mouths shut and not yelled and yelled, the situation may have not happened exactly that way either, ( they most likley excieted the dog with thier yellling)
so when a officer kills a possible dangerous animal while doing a felony arrest, I don't see the problem,
it always look bad when you wash it up and don't put it as it really happeend.
Ok, it turns out they were not the wanted people, but untill it was all over, the officers did nto know that. So when it was happening, they beleived they had dangerous wanted people being arrested.
And no the officers don't stand at the door and discuss it, they follow the procedures for that arrest and once the people are in custody, then they discuss.
You may not like proper procedures but they are in place for a reason,

The Above answer was posted by Father Chuck on here a Law Enforcement Agent.
What do you think. He says that this is standard police procedure to kill your dog if you are accidently pulled over by mistake.
IF this is standard police proceducre we need to get the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION FOR THE PREVENTION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS INVOLVED.
This absolutely not right.
If we don't stop this evil standard police procedure then it could be your dog being slaughtered next.
And the police will justify it by stating that it is standard police procedure.
There will be thousands or millions more cases of mistaken identity to come in the future especially in our paranoid state.

Old news. You had to dig for this odd piece of HISTORY!
Happened in Tennessee a couple of years ago.
Procedures were evaluated and found to be effective.
The stop was evaluated and it was found the procedures were not implemented correctly.
The officers in question and the entire department received re-training on this type of stop, not only for the benefit of the pets, but also for ALL human life involved, including law enforcement personnel and suspected criminals.

2. Got to forget this! Has been few years and you are still "yacking" about this.
3. If this is you, Find NEW PUPPIES to replace!
4. Get over it and MOVE ON!

Well ( just answering the question, as there are too many details to read after initial question), that would depend on how innocent the puppy was...

The cops stepped into a big pile of crap and are trying to cover their butts.
Those guys are gone from the force, as their effectiveness is compromised as "puppy killers"

A vacation is much. Maybe a toaster or DVD player would be in order.
Try again and get the facts first.

An awful lot of writing by you that isn't in the news story.
Just admit that you are a cop-hater and let it go at that.

whatever the procedure it was wrong. if the dog was irritating them they could have thrown it in the back of there car. Killing that animal and then being rewarded, is disgusting and wrong. If shooting first and thinking later is procedure we are all in danger.I am so sad to hear this, it is totally overboard.
