Barney should be fed his balls

#3
Seems like a story a day just like this. Police should know that a dogs natural instinct is to protect it's property and it's owner. I'm sure if the officer would have stayed in his car and honked the horn a couple times the owner would have put the dog away or held onto it. Where is the common sense?

whatever the actions of the cop...

If I call the cops, postman, electrician or friends to my house, I would think to secure my dog because as a dog owner, I know that a dogs natural instinct is to protect etc...

If the cop was being called to a break-in (presumably in-progress) then sitting outside in the car honking the horn would be daft... no?

If the dashcam shows what the autopsy shows then whoever is the supervisor of that cop should be equally punished. Why send an untrained deputy out to do a trained deputy's job?!?

Now them there Blue heelers have got a fearsome bite. Why they have been known to slip right up and nip a grown man on the back of his boot heel. Been there and experienced it first hand. You do understand why they are called heelers, right?

That's how cowards justify their existence. They abuse those who cant fight back. I think somewhere up the road that deputy would have an accident.

I guess you've never seen a blue heeler on a groundhog. It's one hell of a fight! :)

Ground hog isn't carrying a gun though, is he.

I have seen my Weimaraner grab a porcupine. When the quills went through her mouth she started to back off, looked up at me, got a shameful look on her face, bit back down and broke its back. Took me two hours to get the quills out. She whimpered but let me do it. One hell of a dog.

Pit Bulls/etc. I can understand (kinda) but a blue heeler... Really? Are you (the cop) such a pussy that you're afraid of a blue heeler if so you shouldn't be a cop, because there are harmless soccer moms out there who are scarier than blue heelers.

To bad that Nancy got hired onto the force without common sense or good training. Given that any part of this is true a dog had to suffer needlessly because of officer Nancy's small dick syndrome.

Weekly we have local utility people, good folks trying to save my soul and friends of friends show up, unannounced, with the dogs out and they all have managed with out shooting any of our dogs. I also dont understand why, if your response time is measured in hours, you feel time pressure to take a shot at a dog yapping its trap as it runs away from you. Guys like this paste eating, window licking Dum-Bass give good LEO's a bad name and they should be shamed off the force by their peers.

I am not saying getting scratched by a cat, bit by a dog, thrown by a horse or cow kicked is my first choice of things to experience again but I darn sure dont see the need to pull a gun let alone discharge it. I'll give you that heelers can be tough but they got bugs in Tx that do more damage than that little thing.

Last time a neighbors cows got out the local LEO rolled up and helped push them back in the pasture. Not one of them grabbed their balls, winced in fear and drew their weapon.

Now this troll needs to tell his family and friends he is taking an imposed holiday because he lacked common sense. He should move to CA...he would fit in better.

I hate judging another officer as I was not in his shoes and I did not see the incident unfold, but it is surprising to see so many stories of officers misinterpreting the danger signs of a dog. There's a difference between a dog coming aggressively and a dog coming to check out the new person. Dogs telegraph their intentions pretty well and it only takes some basic understanding of dogs to understand what it intends to do. A little OC goes a long way with most dogs that are showing some signs of aggression, or so that has been my experience.

I won't pass actual judgement on this incident as we haven't seen the actual footage from the dash cam which in this case reportedly shows the incident.

A fair, considered and succinct reply which stands in stark contrast to my rant. Well done Sir.

Except that part about the cop finally showing up 3 hours after the call went out. I've been in that farmers shoes (call cops and nobody shows) more than once now and quite frankly, sooner or later you just give up and go about your day.

3 hours has nothing to do with anything, unless you live in a well developed area where the municipality has its own police force, you're stuck with slow response times. That's generally the issue with the sheriff's offices or state based police agencies. They are not well staffed and they are expected to cover a large area. In a rural area it's not uncommon to have a 10-30 minutes response time for a priority call, whereas in an area such as where I work our response time from the call just coming in to officers arriving on scene is 5 minutes or less 95% of the time, many times it's in the 2-4 window depending on how fast dispatch can get units rolling out. On a delayed report or crime that is not in progress, you are going to get a lower priority and have an extended response time. It's a nature of the beast.

I was responding to EventHorizon's assertion of a cop rolling up on a "break-in (presumably in progress)". The point is when this deputy showed up, he knew damn well the break-in was not still in progress, because the call went out 3 hours prior. Nothing more nothing less. I know how they operate, I'm just saying the cop in this situation knew it wasn't still in progress and the farmer was at ZERO fault for not having his animal kenneled at that point. Like I said sooner or later you quit waiting with baited breath and go about your day until they show up to take down the report.

How do we get to the point where police departments are hiring a person and putting a gun in their hands that doesn't realize that a small dog that is maybe 20 lbs isn't a threat.
When I was in college I had a cat bigger than that dog and a whole lot meaner.

Me too, only I'm glad he lost his job. More need to be held accountable so shit like this will stop. This was the third cop-shoots-dog story I read this week, where the cop was "showing up to help".

Its a damned shame. I knew some very good Leo's growing up, the kind of good old boys that were fair and understanding. To them doing what was right didn't always mean enforcing the law. Serve and protect these days means serve you with tickets and protect the interests of a unjust, corrupt government. It has gotten to the point where I see a Leo and my first thought is "potential combatant". You should be able to feel safe in your own home, not be worrying if you or your dog will be shot for the slightest infraction.

That's why I keep my door locked at all times. Not because Im afraid of crooks, I know all my neighbors and the area is safe. I keep it locked because now days is a cop comes by for any reason they seem to think that if a door is unlocked they have the right to enter. Then once they are in and you tell them to get the fuck out, your being aggressive and they think that gives them the right to use force...because they are in your home illegally. there is no reasoning with them, its all about control.

I almost cried when I watched the video my Great Pyrenees looks big and intimidating but wouldn't attack anyone. The officer clearly lacks the training and good judgement to be a lawman. Let's not forget about the sorry sacks of shit that started this chain of events with the initial burglary... May they rot in hell

North Carolina deputy snatches two phones for recording her, fails to snatch the third phone - YouTube

Onslow County Deputy Sheriff Natalie Barber reportedly told Carlos Jaramillo, a former United States Marine, to give up his cell phone when she caught him recording her from his porch last Saturday night. The incident began when Deputy Barber was investigating a dispute over some neighborhood dogs in Onslow County, N.C. Deputy Barber refused to accept Jaramillo’s VA card as identification, but demanded to see his driver's license (video below). Jaramillo told Deputy Barber that he was going to record her on his cell phone “for my safety,” but the officer yelled back, “For my safety, put the phone down. I’m telling you to put the phone down!”Deputy Barber grabbed the cell phone from Jaramillo and handcuffed him in front of his family, reports PhotographyisNotaCrime.com. Deputy Barber also took Jaramillo's son’s cell phone when he tried filming her handcuffing his father. However, Jaramillo's son was able to record more video with his mom's cell phone from behind a screen door.All three video recordings have been made public by Jaramillo's family and seemingly contradict Deputy Barber's claims that Jaramillo was “being aggressive” and “causing commotion and distracting me from doing my job.” Amazingly, the Onslow County Sheriff’s Department told Jaramillo that Deputy Barber did the right thing because she supposedly feared for her life, notes - See more at: NC Deputy Tries to Stop Family From Filming Her (Video)

"Amazingly" what's so amazing about cops covering for their own, its a time honored tradition. On a side note, females should not be allowed to be front line cops, same as they shouldn't be front line soldiers. Too flighty and easily intimidated. Scared people act out of fear, not reason.
