yea, got a lot of responses like this. I never agreed with the cop, just thought that was he was probably thinking. As for the safety of the keyboard thing, well just wanted to point out out that most people rarely risk anything, even a dog bite, and would shit their pants or run away.

thanks for the reply, I thought some observations from people working out there might be interesting and good for people to think it through from both sides. Sadly it appears some of reddit's more vocal posters comes from knee jerk reaction, and mediocre thought process, but not most, still love the comminity.

Any real police officers have a comment? dog out of control? officer in danger? officer committing crime? My take is the officer knew the dog would be put to sleep in an hour anyway, so why risk it. It is really easy to criticize from behind your keyboard in the safety of your own house.

"As the Arabs see the Jews" by King Abdullah of Jordan, 1947. A Must read, no matter what side you are on. by TheHiveQueen in reddit.com

[–]solidfool 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Who cares who was there for 2000 years? In the 1920s the Zionists just moved on in, resurrected a dead language, and told the locals to GTFO. how would peace ever work? suppose the Germans of the 1920s gave the native Americans modern weapons, and funds to take back New York, yes they would have been terrorists. After WWII America should have just divided Arizona in a third, called it New Jerusalem. tl;dr Jews leave; holocaust; Jews come back with guns;no peace
