Probably go to civil court and lawsuit with the subsequence tab paid by tax payers as usual in all police screwups.
It is better to be judged by 12 than to be carried by 6.

I have no idea what happened there, I wasn't there and I'm not going to judge the cop or the dog owner.
I will say that even as a dog owner and dog lover, that perhaps dog owners would do a better job of controlling their dogs if there was a greater chance off their off leash out of control dogs would be taking a dirt nap when they attacked other dogs or other people.
Something to consider.

You may not be familiar with the concept of dog parks, but they're enclosures where dog owners take their dogs so they can romp around loose with other dogs. The regulars usually do an excellent job of policing the place on their own in terms of making it clear to folks with poorly behaved dogs that they are not welcome back unless it's with a profession trainer who's come to address their dog's issues. The dog that was shot had an excellent reputation among the regulars. It would appear that the cop was a first time visitor.

To be fair. It really is only SOME that are like that. The actual number is unknown, but it's likely few, though very likely more than most will admit. Yes, to be fair, of course not all cops are like that. I shouldn't use universal language.

I guess nobody will have a problem if I take my old man there and let him "play rough". You'll all jump on the dude with the CCW that shoots him after he works his way through a few "playing", right?

Dogs aren't people, and they sure as schit aren't kids. Equating the two is ridiculous. Yes I have dogs and can appreciate others' dogs as well. Dogs are friends, companions, all kinds of things, but it's childish to get your emotions all tied up in an animal.

I've worked with dogs and established about as strong of an emotional bond as one can with a pup. Doesn't make them people.
And giving two schits about a guy with a CCW popping somebody's pooch, after not being there when it went down, is laughable.
"Dog park" Funny schit.

The article is written with a slant towards the dog owner. Nothing like unbiased reporting right? I doubt the "victim's" owner is in a position to rationally speak about the incident as evidenced by the quotes in the article. And as we've seen here already people get pretty retarded pretty quick over pets.

George Well, the thing is that Joe Citizen doing exactly the same as this cop would have been cuffed, stuffed, and charged with something quite serious. Why the double standard?

As a sign that Anchorage is going to the birds, or liberals, I'm familiar with dog parks. I don't care what the regulars do, or how their dogs typically behave. A dog that attacks another dog, or a person should be put down, whether in a dog park, or not. Pretty damn simple concept. Kinda similar to the nice boy that rapes somebodies daughter. Doesn't matter what a nice boy he is, wrong is wrong. But alot of people have completely skewed views on the relationship between man(human beings) and animals.
