Slippery slope. Besides, if a cop shoots my dog will the cop be charged as if they killed a person?
The ATF strongly objects.
He should definitely be charged if it's deemed an unecessary kill. But currupt departments would probably just justify it.
Think this is restricted to police / service dogs.
That’s a form of elitism isn’t it? A K9 is no more entitled to life because it works with and protects a public employee than my dog that works with and protects me and my family. Is a police officer’s life more valuable than mine simply because of their position?
Yes. A policeman places his life on the line every single day.
If the penalty for murder of a cop is automatic Death Sentence, some idiots will stop and think before reacting
You nor I don’t place our lives in danger several times a day, keeping society safe. We just enjoy the benefits of society
If that deterrent is good enough for a police officer then why not for me or anyone else? There are occupations where people are at the same level of risk from injury or death at the hands of criminal elements as a police officer. You are assigning more value to a life simply because it is an agent of the state. That is wrong and a dangerous direction. Politicians receive constant death threats and are agents of the state. Do they deserve such distinction?
