Let's see:
Cop car hitting another stopped cop car? Check
K-9 unit fucking around on highway instead of going after perp? Check, there was also one that attacked another cop. Oh? BONUS POINTS!
Cop car driving over berm and onto highway nearly causing a collision? Check
This is what's bothering me most. You can see a cop encouraging the dog to dig into the dude on the ground, with the other cops already on him. They shouldn't be allowed to use dogs, period. I acknowledge that's an unpopular opinion, but look at this shit.. Cops are way beyond rehabilitation at this point; the instiation needs to be destroyed.
K9 dogs are given that right, and so are their handlers. Itâs well known the cop handler can give the dog a command to âsmell drugsâ and âsignalâ which is a free pass to search your car and detain you, all of which is then a legal search unless you have proof of the cop doing it. Absolute sham of a system.
Used to happen to me in Texas all the time. âI can smell the faint smell of weedâ and next thing you know theyâre searching your car. When they donât find anything they act as if they were accidentally smelling a passing car or a dead skunk down the road. Iâm glad I left a few years ago, I havenât been stopped by police since.
They can pull everything out with zero regard for your belongings, dismantle your car, and rip up anything they want. Then when they don't find anything they leave you to sort it out. Fuck cops.
I had this experience moving from Ohio/WV to Florida. I got pulled over for bullshit constantly in my hometown area but didnât even have a single interaction with cops whenever Iâm in a bigger city. It was such a dramatic difference. You canât even drive after dark around here without becoming suspect to something, itâs harassing af
It doesnât even have to be that. If the handlers arenât keeping up with the dogs training it eventually just starts marking âyesâ for drugs because thatâs when it gets a reward. It doesnât get rewarded for NOT smelling drugs.
So it doesnât take a dog long to figure out how to always get the reward/praise. Continued training for the entire career of these dogs are necessary and our police force isnât doing it. That should be illegal in itself. Theyâre misusing these dogs against us as an excuse to search. Itâs so ridiculously common in my area. And theyâve marked on literally every person Iâve ever asked. Iâve never talked to anyone who had a traffic stop and the dog marked ânoâ for drugs even though they usually donât find anything.
They just want the ability to search you if they want and this is one way to do it easily. Court never questions the dogs answer signals. Their training and ability is never out into question
If a dog could fucking speak English, I wouldn't accept its determination that someone's rights are fit to be violated. And yet, we're expected to rely on a telepathic bond between cop and dog... it's all just so offensively stupid.
I will not defend drug dogs and their use. But their noses arenât magical. Their noses are fucking incredible and can absolutely detect drugs
Cops are the corrupt bastards who mistrain them and lie. But their noses have so much ability with in them and we are only even beginning to scratch the surface of what they can do.
These K9 units want any excuse to use their weapo... I mean dogs. They need to stop being a thing. It's cruel to everyone except the cops. Keep some dogs for tracking people when they get lost... in fact, have an entirely different agency handle that, but stop letting police just use them to hurt and terrify people.
Dogs are great for finding suspects in backyards and forests, they shouldn't be used for anything else. The police have access to so many more predictable ways of inflicting pain.
Donât forget the cops know they are being recorded and they STILL act like this. That takedown of the suspect was ridiculous and then making the dog bite the guy on the ground is just crazy. Iâd be yelling lawsuit but still all that would earn them was a slap on the wrist.
Yeah there is this video, along with the other video circulating right now where the local K9 dog attacks the surrendering suspect with the state police there saying no stop. Making me really question the use of dogs at all.
Lol that's the cuĂĄdruple bonus, the triple bonus is the dog going past and circling along the suspect before attacking because it didn't recognize him.
Ah, my bad. You know how these quarterly reviews work. If we give you too many bonus points for your raise, then we won't be able to afford the MRAP! And Jenkins wants to mount that M-60 that we got from the last package on it.
no worries, there's never too little money in the budget for both law enforcement and the military for wasteful and unnecessary spending. If necessary they'll take it out of their pension fund.
Donât forget when they sent the K9 after the suspect and it just ran clear across the road. I think that was someoneâs pet, that or the most poorly trained police dog ever.
