Indeed they are and I have explicitly stated as such.
Not sure what we're arguing about here. I think you may have confused me with someone else. I'm not sure how much more clear I could make it than this:

If I were an officer justifiably in the area and a large aggressive dog was attacking me, Jesus himself could come down and tell me that the dog wouldn't attack and I'd still shoot the MFer. Everybody says their dog won't hurt you...and a fair amount of them are wrong.
My concern isn't with the shooting of the dog, it's with the conduct that created the problem where there wasn't one initially.
