Police departments are perennially accused of excessive force--the poignant SPD shooting of Native American carver John Williams being just the latest example. Usually, however, the victims are human beings. Not so in an excessive-force case recently filed in federal court, which details the fatal shooting of a Labrador retriever mixed-breed dog named Slyder, allegedly for doing little more than sniffing the butt of a police dog.

What a load of crap. Even if they WERE seriously fighting there is never a valid reason to pull out a gun and shoot a dog 3 times, I mean come on. It isn't that hard to pull two dogs apart buddy. People are too stupid to have guns.

It's nothing new, power just.. does things to people. Like the Stanford Prison Experiment. Give any random person a gun and control over other people and just watch things turn ugly
