To pass the gun accuracy police test.

You need to be able to shoot a target 10 feet away.

You're allowed to miss it a few times.

Lack of proper training is standardized.

[MinnesotaFats]

Look at this video. What a crock of shit.

The Captain gives his standard, prepared, lawyered speech to give to public. Just a "cut and paste" answer to every problem they create.

Another perfect example of a "being all big" cop shooting first thou. This numbnuts so pathetic he misses his point blank target, which evidently was "a lab mix" so basically Fido. Dont get why we're shooting Fido instead of petting him or distracting him with a stick or biscuit.

Just more evidence cops can't do a fukkin thing right. "We're here to help, it's the police" ya right, lock your door and take cover, they'll mow you down and then cite you just to make their quota on tickets and justify their miserable existence.

I hope this lady's family sues the shit out of the city, and that cop personally. Bankrupt him and blast his name everywhere- ruin his shitty life so he never works again and everyone he meets will know he's a bout reckless killer, and then bankrupt that stupid city so their council can fire all but one or two cops....just enough to fill out the insurance reports. That's about the only thing a cop is good for.

Cop will get slap on wrist. Until all pigs who do shit like this face full legal prosecution and get stripped of job, without the ability to end up in another law enforcement job ever again and lose all benefits accrued and promised during their career it will continue.

As long as there are arseholes like you around, there will be people like me ready to take you down, one way or another. You ex-cons are all the same. Step into my neighborhood arsehole and mouth off like that and see what happens to you. But you, are too chicken s**t to do that.

Dog was charging the cop and he did his job, stray bullet hit the owner.. She should have controlled her dog and this would have never happened..

Again owner negligence caused this, cop was defending himself.. She was just in the wrong place.. Shiiit happens.. I don't see a problem with this..

Maybe that cop should take more reps at shooting targets in his off time.. Go to the range more.. He's missed his target by mistake and he should get a desk job for now. He's a bad shot..

Control your dog. It’s not difficult if you have a shred of brain matter.

Bingo...Not controlling her fukking dog was the problem

Correct, it's too easy for people to blame the root of problems on something else.

It's like when I taught a couple of college classes. People would blame me for giving them crappy grades. No, they gave themselves the failing grade for being dumb and not studying.

Well said..

Can't blame other people for their own stupid actions when shit hits the fan.. Simpler version of what you just posted above.

Why do you keep calling me an ex con and an asshole? We have never met. You keep threatening me as if it is needed to justify your position in a forum thread....it's not. It actually detracts from it.

This woman is dead because of an untrained, unqualified wanna be cop couldn't handle a rather bland situation.

Aren't there dogs in European countries??? They don't arm their policing agencies....how do they deal with these situations??? They deal with them like reasonable, rationale adults and not wild west cowboys.

Spot on.

If this incompetent goof is allowed to remain in law enforcement he will panic again and do something stupid. The dog could have been handled with his baton, flashlight or bean bag gun.

When someone accidentally kills somebody on the road it's Manslaughter and this should be no different

cop defending himself from a dog with a gun in a paw would be justified

a hero cop if for only putting on the uniform can not handle a dog bite?
pussy

especially when your crossfire might cause a human to die

No cop should have to take a angry dog chewing him up. His shots were justified..

He just missed his target and hit the chick in the crossfire and it was just an unfortunate mistake.. Like I said he should get a desk job for a while now because he didn't assess the situation properly and took horrible shots and missed.. Cop was a bad shot. Sit his asss down.

No criminal charges should be brought up though, Cop wasn't aiming to shoot the dogs owner.. It was a mistake.. A costly one.

[PittsburghPlayer]

from a dog with no gun
a human is dead and only a mistake

[JIBBBY]

Dog should have been trained to not charge a cop, better yet the owner should have had it on a leash.. It's really the dog owners fault if you want to blame anyone? If the Dog doesn't charge the officer on a public walk way he would have never fired a single shot..

JIBBBS, I am not going engage in a pissing match with you as I respect you
want to keep it that way.

You are a good man and I agree w/ you 99% of the time.

Not a pissing match, just sharing thoughts.. It's all good Pitt. We all have different views on stuff at time, no biggie. I don't get mad at that..
I'm just saying if an angry dog with teeth showing is charging at me and I have a gun, I'll probably use it on the dog also. I'm not gonna get chewed up. That's all I'm saying..

For the record I really like dogs too..

People kill people accidentally in automobiles.

They pay the price.

No difference here, or there shouldn't be.

So you think this cop should be charged with manslaughter felony charges for being a bad shot? His life and job taken away for trying to kill a charging dog and missing his aim?

Tough call there..

Drunk or texting drivers that kill should face criminal charges and harsh ones as well.

Read Ya Jibbbs, You have class, grace, style to be admired!

I wouldn't go that far but I try, thanks for the kind words bud

HELL YES Jibs, 100%

If you run a red light or stop sign BY ACCIDENT they don't care that it was a mistake, you still get charged.

Why should there be a double standard?

Hmmm? Well there is a bit of a difference from running a red light and killing someone because you're an idiot and not paying attention compared to firing at a angry dog running at you to defend yourself from receiving bodily harm and a stray bullet taking out someone...

I guess we will just have to respectively disagree on this Hman. I see it differently...

But couldn't both incidents considered idiocy, lack of judgment, or a number of other things?

Trust me I see your side of it too.

I've just never believed police officers should receive special treatment.

If they get killed in duty, they are heroes.

If the construction worker directing traffic on a heavy highway during his job which is just as dangerous or even more so, you never hear a word about it.

But you'll also see me defend officers these days with these morons thinking they can get away with anything and should be punished on the spot.

I hope a cop’s stay bullet hits you right between the eyes very soon. You won’t be missed by anyone.

Grits your posts are all the same these days. Come up with some new material buddy.. Getting old pal..


I know you want me to get hit by a bullet and die or experience some horrible death.. What else you got for me??

[captrobey]

This is a tough one. The biggest mistake was the dog was loose. I assume there are leash laws this would have never happened if the dog was on a leash or tied up .

The lady was a homeless lady i read. Maybe has mental health issues and the dog is hanging around her idk. The pulling of a gun think was a bit excessive shouldn't he have pepper spray or mace most cops do i thought. I cannot tell wth the dog was doing . Running to attack or whatever but under no way shape or form was this more then a horrific accident. It was not like he was drunk and killed someone. Idk what was going through his head as the dog was running at him.

So this one is a bit tougher to call. Normally it is easy some idiot is breaking the law and resists arrest and gets killed i always am on the side of the cop on those . This one is tougher for me to call. She was at fault for not controlling the dog and he was at fault for drawing a gun in that situation. Or was he ? Did he really feel his life was threatened ? IDK.

How was this woman homeless, when her Dad is a fire captain? No spare bedroom Dad? Can't let your daughter sleep in your basement, or at the fire house? Piece of trash Dad.

If a homeless woman can't afford rent, how does she afford dog food & vet bills? Apparently she couldn't afford a dog leash. If you can't take care of yourself first, you shouldn't be taking care of other living things. Whether it be animals or children.

Drug addiction is a biiitch.. Makes you lazy and only thinking about one thing in life - how to get that next high day after day.. That can make anyone become homeless in time. No way to live your life..

It's a waste of time and money and most of all the potentials in life you could have achieved and missed out on!!!

Right and even as a parent you can only do so much. My stepfathers son my stepbrother was a druggie. Almost died a couple times. Have not seen him in years could be dead for all i know. My stepfather has passed away since but before he kept giving him cash thinking he used on bills . It wasn't all on drugs. I tried getting him a job. Did not want one just wanted to use women and get money for drugs (He was very persuasive had women lined up) . When my dad died he came over acting like he wanted to help with the funeral arrangements and tried sneaking in the other room we had locked to steal stuff. That is the kind of person he was. He ended up marrying a girl he met in rehab . One day he stole her car when her money ran out(still on drugs) and took off with another girl. Have not seen him since in years.

Yep - Best thing a parent can do is not enable and give their drug addict kid cash. Better to call the police on them and try to lock them up instead, get the judge to force them into rehab or more jail time.
