Hope it didn’t interrupt their video game playing back at the station
Hope you didn’t interrupt your pornography viewing to comment.
One of them will undoubtedly WC pension out.
Will firefighter Joe blame this on Tariffs or the guns?
Usual suspect.
Tbe ownerbis a white lady. So yea. Usual suspect
Huh? English please
Usual suspect was referring to the Pit Bull! Omg…
This is not the first time this dog has attacked somebody. It attacked a child ( owner’s son ) around Thanksgiving time and an ambulance had to be called. According to the owner at that time that was also not the first time. The dog should have been euthanized a while ago. This owner should be held responsible for the fact that they didn’t follow the previous orders for the dog to be turned over to the proper agencies for it to be put to sleep in a humane manner.
Because dogs are family. Still better then most humans, I get what your saying but you sound insensitive nobody wants to kill their family member unless you’re just phyco. That poor dog was either scared or confused dogs don’t just attack!
Makes me wonder what abuse that dog endured previously to make it so vicious.
Good point, Blake! Probably quite a lot of abuse
Or it was a complete spoiled brat that got zero discipline
you are more stupid than you look
The owner of the dog should be more concerned about the welfare of human family members or the general public than the dog. In addition, dogs do attack because they are undisciplined. If they are scared or confused easily (dumb) and then bite as their first reaction, they are dangerous to other dogs or people and should be destroyed. Plenty of non vicious dogs up for adoption at the humane society. No excuses.
Animal plant or mineral, when family goes bad, you turn it over to the authorities to deal with.
I’m confused….gunfire related injuries? Did one cop accidentally shoot another while trying to shoot the dog or ?
Maybe a little more target shooting is necessary for the police officer.
Yes, Kev, missed explaining that small detail in an effort to “back da blue” as usual
Yawn
How did the bullet graze someones eye if the dog in on the ground? Interesting
Any dog that goes after a child should be put down no questions asked.
Pit bulls are for wanna be tuff guys with little peckers
Its a single white mom and her white kids though. Maybe they got the dog to replace their white dads that left.
Maybe the dumb fuck mother should do a better job or picking guys then (and dogs).
Pitbulls – Exterminate the species
Exterminate the ones responsible for shitty dogs…
Exactly. Pits are shitty ass dogs
Cop needs to go to a firearm refresher course. Wow
You’re not REALLY that stupid are you???
Very. VERY few humans could do better in all that chaos – no one seriously hurt.
You’ve got the prize for the dumbest comment on the internet today.
I think you just beat em…
Never enough practice, but life isn’t a video game and there’s no reset button. Just because TV and movie heroes can make a sandwich while shooting eight people with a five shot revolver, doesn’t mean snap shooting in close quarters well always be perfect. Especially in a dog case where your target often overlaps with a friendly.
Wow…. I would like to see you do better in a situation like that.
What firearms course teaches you where shrapnel will fly to?
Really?
Do democrats have a rally scheduled in support of the pit bull?
Probably votes absentee as P. Bull.
i would like to see that body cam footage!
kev will let this clown show slide
Clown show in the ghetto.
GREAT shooting!!!
No one seriously hurt in all the shooting and chaos and the objective was attained.
WOW.
How many of you experts have taken out a mad dog trying to attack people. I would bet most of you would freeze up or end up with a friendly fire incident.
It did end up in a friendly fire incident. It says 2 firefighters were hurt with gunfire related injuries
You’re a total idiot, aren’t you?
Bullets hit 2 fireman. Explain how thats a “great shooting”
Actually, if you do your homework pitbulls are lovers. Its how they are raised. I had 2 so far and when raised properly they are greatly great dogs. Its the owners who give them the bad name. To say they are shitty ass dogs sounds stupid. Its the shitty ass people/owners who raised them wrong!!
