Officer charged in Commerce City dog shooting

[Sharpienads]

I heard this dog was believed to have been causing a disturbance on the light rail earlier that day.

Well that comment was fairly racist.

Poor dog. Sucks he had to go that way.

Hmmm, that's not at all the way I intended that comment. Now I'm wondering how it was taken.

I didn't sense anything racial about that. To be honest though I wouldn't care if I did.

I was just joking. Its a dog, how could it be racist? I thought you were joking as well. Sorry, crying racism is my default response when I don't really have anything constructive to say.

Makes sense to me.

I was making an obscure reference to another incident. We'll see if anyone picks up on it.

Dog didn't look under control to me even with the stick tied to it. It was running right to where the bystander was previously standing, maybe the officer though it was going after that guy. Although the officer didn't show much tact shooting in that same direction.

Not saying the shooter shouldn't be in trouble, just trying to see maybe what he was thinking.

If you tase then pole noose a dog and then drag it around by the head it will freak the fark out no matter how well trained and obedient the animal is.

I consider myself even keeled regarding LE but that animal didn't need to die and that asshat didnt need to discharge his weapon.

Therefore he doesn't need to be a cop or able to own firearms EVER again.

So if the other officers lied on their reports, and this guy is convicted of a felony, shouldn't the other officers be charged with obstruction of justice. Covering for that a-hole when he committed a crime makes them complicit, or at least it would for anybody not wearing a badge.
