    My first reaction to that final quoted sentence is “well they are callous with human life, why wouldn’t they be with a dog?”

    But my second reaction is, “Don’t they have to account for every on-duty weapon discharge??” You’d think putting “shot dog” as the reason you fired your weapon would be trackable.

      It also implies that the same cop has killed a dog more than once. Which would get you fired in pretty much any other situation. But of course, cops are always immune from that sort of thing.

      No, they don’t have to account for every discharge, in fact no one in the US has any idea how many times police fire their weapons.
