I have a pit-bull that was coming into "my yard" at my lake place and barking at me so I shot him in the ass with a BB gun a couple of times. He has on occasion come back but he takes off running at the site of me. Had he continued come around and act aggressively I would have had no problem upping the fire power. I probably would have popped him with a paint ball gun first but I would not have any guilt at all about putting a real bullet in his head to prevent him coming after me or even after my own dog. I also have a problem with a police dog being able to chew on my backside but if I hit it with a lead pipe to get it off,I'm guilty of assaulting a police officer. WTF? Something to take note of in the picture he is blubbing by the grave site of his doggie in his back yard. I know lots of people do it but burying you pet in you back yard is against the law most places. The cops will probably be back with another ticket for this guy.

How many folks have really made this about the dog?
The conversation in this thread has centered on the conduct of the officer. He could've tripped over a lantern and set the guy's shed on fire and it would've been no less egregious.
The dog isn't the point, it's the property rights and civil liberties that are.
