    DOJ: Police Shooting Family Dogs has Become ‘Epidemic’

    Cops in this country kill so many dogs each year that a specialist at the Department of Justice’s (“DOJ”) community-oriented program services office says it has become an “epidemic.” The DOJ estimates that around 25 to 30 dogs are killed by cops every day, with some numbers as high as 10,000 per year. The totals could, in fact, be higher, since most police agencies do not formally track officer-involved shootings involving animals.

    In a terrible dystopia, there are still things to laugh at (though often, morbidly).

    One of my favorite dark jokes is:

    What does a box of chocolates and your crazy ex-girlfriend have in common?

    They’ll both kill your dog
