It your talking about killing a drug dealers dog, no it's not a form of terrorism. These drug dealers and meth labs have violent dogs to protect what they have. The dogs (some pitbulls) are a danger to the police. I personally have spoken with an officer who had a pitbull (from a meth lab) chew on his patrol car tires. It took several shots to bring the animal down. So, if you are talking about drug dealers dogs, no, they have every right to shoot a violent dog. Even someone that doesn't do drugs. If an officer feels his life is in danger, then he should be able to use such force. If owners are not responsible enough to keep their pets (especially violent ones) contained in some shape or form when ANYONE approaches it just simply negligent. We have a neighborhood dog that roams around terrorizing the neighborhood. We live out of the city limits with no animal control. So, as soon as someone gets a shot, that dog will be non existent. Owners have to be responsible and if they aren't they are putting not only police officers at risk but everyone else.

They only shoot them when someone is in danger of being harmed.
Having a dog that will attack others could be considered terrorism. I've been attacked by a rott - one that was abused by it's owner.
I'm still frightened by dogs- 5 yrs later.

Drug dealers usually have trained vicious dogs to protect their cache of drugs, so it is necessary sometime to neutralize these dogs.

Aren't those "pet" pit bulls and rottweilers there to bite the cops? If so the cops are just defending themselves. Too bad they can't...well never mind.
