We're the Only Ones Knee-Capping Enough

A routine trip to serve a juvenile warrant ended with an innocent teenager shot by an officer.
Funny thing--if "The Only One" felt justified to shoot because of aggressive dogs, and he didn't shoot the dogs but shot the kid instead, and the dogs didn't end up needing to be shot after all because they didn't attack, is there anything we can infer...?

And why don't we know his name...?

My dog barks at anyone that comes in the house. That's her job. And if some idiot cop shoots MY son while attempting to shoot the dog, I guess I'll have to get killed or go to jail becaus I WILL shoot back. Even if he just shoots my dog.

Cops should be trained on animal behavior before they get the job. It's not unusual for a dog to run up then stand there and bark. If it isnt biting you you have NO REASON to shoot. Hope he gets his butt fried in court.

I want to see proof that the dog was, in fact, a "pit bull." An actual pedigreed American Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, or Staffordshire Bull Terrier

Lying bastiges. My hatred of these incestuous pestilential vermin grows every day.

SO... Failure to contact your parole officer when you're on parole for burglary means you have to be found immediately at all costs. "A ROUTINE trip" means following neighbors' guesses and doing what's necessary to serve that warrant, including messing with people's privacy and safety.
But WE'RE zealots?
Local case involved the robbery squad questioning a man with a record. They knocked on his door about 7:30 a.m. as he was getting dressed for work. He didn't even have his pants on fully. When they started to drop, he reached to pull them up, and the LEADER of the squad popped him in the chest, fatally. None of the other 7 cops even drew. Some people -- many people -- just lack the judgment to be out there.
