everyone of these little short fat ass cock suckers on the video should be fired and jailed for this kind of chit. This dog will be hard to replace regardless of the money the county will have to pay out. They not only cost the man his dog , they took time and money out of his pocket. Plus his home had just been robbed before the Nazis Troopers arrived .

You forgot overtime and medical, and likely more. Cops can hugely increase their actual pay by regularly logging overtime.

None of that matters, subject. The Officer's Safety is paramount and he will go home safely. That is all that is important.

this is true, for example I'll bid a tile job and they'll tell me well so and so from the valley (rio grande) will do it for a dollar a ft. i tell them fine call me when their done and i'll fix it and don't pay them any money up front, you get what you pay for.

For sure that's a pretty low wage for someone with so much responsibility, but around here the utility companies pay their meter readers $9/hour and even at that low wage they're smart enough to get back in the car if a strange dog comes running in their direction.

So, while I agree that that's a disgraceful wage to pay a LEO, I don't believe it has anything to do with smarts.

Yep, that sort of conduct isn't stemming from a lack of smarts. It's stemming from an excess of contempt for regular folks and normal standards of society due to an inflated ego that seems to have become the norm for cops in the last thirty years.

Sure it stems from a lack of smarts. Even if I have a burning desire to murder farm dogs, if I'm smart I won't do it. Or at least won't do it in broad daylight in front of the farmer. Or in front of my camera.

I'm not advocating the murder of farm dogs. I am pretty adamant that this deputy isn't the brightest tool in the shed.

A dog is killed by law enforcement every 98 minutes in the US.

If you're implying that there is an overabundance of stupid cops, you'll get no argument from me.

That's not what I'm implying. The sort of hubris that causes this sort of behavior is only to be expected in light of what the police profession in the US has evolved into. Has little to do with intelligence.

It's like being raped, calling the cops for assistance, and they take sloppy seconds for themselves before leaving without an investigation.

Everything has gone completely to [bleep].

Try shooting a police dog that is acting aggressively (or not) and see how far you get.

We are completely screwed. There is absolutely no way to protect yourself from bad law enforcement.

Again, this 'pay us cops more or this kind of bad stuff is going to happen, maybe to you' is simple bald faced extortion under the color of law.

Every cop that references police compensation in regard to police crimes, incompetence, and misconduct is no better than the urban gang member extorting one store owner with stories of what happened to the last that did not pay.

Most of us think there are too many dumb cops out there. All of us think you're an idiot.

Texas Cop Trips Girls Celebrating State Soccer Title, Creates New Generation of Cop Haters

Ever wonder why some people hate cops? Watch the video above, captured on a cell phone, for some clues.

On Saturday, after Vandergrift High School's Lady Vipers won a state soccer title, fans poured on to the field to celebrate. Like a Berlin Wall border guard, a Georgetown, Texas, cop tried to stanch the celebratory flow by kicking and tripping celebrants.

The Austin American-Statesman reports that the office, George Bermudez, has been put on leave until an investigation is completed:

Bermudez was chosen as an outstanding police officer for the Georgetown Police Department last year

It's not extortion, it's common sense. If you hire a $3 whore, don't expect a $500 BJ. Don't expect fast food value burgers to taste the same as a $50 ribeye. And don't expect to pay $13 an hour and hire the cream of the crop police officers.

I know I wouldn't be a cop for $13 an hour. It just ain't worth it.

Right, that's why all this schit happens: the cops aren't paid enough.

I can absolutely, positively guarantee that at some point in time, that "officer" would meet an untimely end or simply disappear from the face of the earth if either of my dogs had that happen to them.

Wouldn't say a word, just take care of business on my own terms & in my own time.
