"Mommy, Am I Gonna Die?": Cop Aims For Dog, Shoots 4 Year Old, After Injured Mom Calls 911
To Protect and Serve? When Whitehill resident Andrea accidentally cut her arm on glass, her sister frantically called 911, "I need a paramedic." Columbus Police Officer Jon Thomas responded to the house where he pulled out his gun and shot toward the family's dog (which he claims ran toward him), missed, and hit Andrea's four-year-old daughter Ava in the leg, shattering her bone.
As The Columbus Dispatch reports, Andrea also revealed that the cop never apologized or asked if Ava was okay and immediately left after shooting her.
A Columbus police officer accidentally wounded a 4-year-old girl in Whitehall on Friday when he fired at a charging dog, police said.
A neighbor and the girl’s uncle identified her as Ava Ellis, who was taken to Nationwide Children’s Hospital, where police said she was in stable condition.
The officer was at a house in the 4100 block of Chandler Drive investigating a hit-and-run case about 3:10 p.m., Columbus police spokeswoman Denise Alex-Bouzounis said.
As the officer was walking from the home to his patrol car, a woman a few houses away called out to him, saying her sister and the girl’s mother, Andrea Ellis, had cut herself.
The officer was at the doorway when a dog charged at him, Alex-Bouzounis said.
The officer fired once, missing the animal but striking the girl in the right leg. It was unclear whether the girl was hit directly or by a ricochet. The officer has not been identified.
Neighbors say the officer walked back to his patrol car after the shooting.
“He seemed a little disoriented, like he was really bothered,” said Norman Jones, who called the police after hearing the shot. Columbus and Whitehall police arrived at the scene shortly afterward.
“Mommy, am I gonna die?” four-year-old Ava Ellis asked her mother.
The family created a Facebook page for Ava.
As Salon reports, her mother Andrea wrote her account of the incident in a post. She names the police officer who shot her child, Jonathan Thomas, and says that, as soon as he saw the dog, who was eight to 10 feet away from him, he fired — in the direction of her eight-year-old niece and Ava.
Officer Thomas claimed that the dog charged at him, but Andrea’s sister Brandie denies this, and says the pet was in the house when he shot at it.
Andrea also revealed that the cop never apologized or asked if the four-year-old was okay and immediately left after shooting her. Neighbors have corroborated this account. Ava’s mother wrote:
“Officer Thomas then told my sister to stop yelling at him and walked back to his vehicle. Officer Thomas never said sorry, never said it was an accident, never said that he called for help or was going to call for help, never asked if Ava was ok, and never asked if he could check on Ava. Officer Thomas went back to his vehicle and started to pull away. My neighbors have even verified that he started pulling away before any help was there. Officer Thomas shot Ava and left knowing he shot Ava and not knowing the condition she was in.”
The young girl was taken to a nearby hospital, and is in stable condition. The Inquisitr reported that Ava started school in a wheelchair, and may walk with a limp for the rest of her life... and will likely forever mistrust the police...

Chief Wiggum: That's some fine shootin', boys.
ONLY IN AMERICA!!!
and also a few other 3rd world countries that are a police state....
BANANA'S FOR EVERYBODY!!!
We're all Tamir Rice now.
Don't hate, it's hard as heck to hit a small dog at close range. The officer is entitled to protect himself against canine agression. CPS should be called in to investiate the squalid conditions that child lives in with that dangerous dog. Broken glass all in the house and dogs runnin a muck, amazing the poor child has lived to see four.
No criteria for qualifying thugs protecting the asses of thieving bankster jews.
God save Obongo!
That poor girl will probably have trouble with her leg for the rest of her life, thanks to this degenerate pig filth.
BTW, if you take a shot at police attack dog, you are dead regardless of whether you hit it. If you defend yourself in any way against a police attack dog and you're beat into a coma. To the government, a police attack dog has more rights than you do.
A Pittsburgh police dog was injured by a suspect and has been given the royal treatment, news stories, parades, you name it. Meanwhile cops kill a dog somewhere in "America" every ninety minutes.
Yeah, there was one in OKC a few months back that had the same treatment. Fucking pathetic...
What an 'oatmeal head' he is!
ok maybe some guns should be banned
Never. Call. The. Police.
How many kids and dogs and bystanders have to be shot, and killed, before people figure this shit out?
Events like this is preciesly why the second ammendment exists. If a cop shoots into your home, you shoot the cop.
I wouldn't say never. If you intend an ambush it'd be appropriate to call the cops.
I bet if a WHITE COP SHOT A BLACK FOUR YEAR OLD.....That Race would be predominantly featured in the headline, and that this story would be plastered all over the socialist jew media 24/7/365
Because that's how the greedy race baiting socialist jew media rolls.....
it fits their narrative of dindunuffins always being mistreated by the man, ignoring the mountain of awful shit one race does to society.
No, it marginalizes police brutality by making it seem like it only happens to darkies who got what they deserved and so everyone else should ignore it.
I thought they called a paramedic. Never call a paramedic?
America, pussified nation with roided up cops...
what a clusterfuck nation.
Heck, India looks like heaven in comparison....
First world..western civilization...ameriCANNED values....what a fooking JOKE....
Calling it a nation is a stretch.
Oh and let me add this bit of fuel to this fire:
Israel firsters, get your hasbra hats ON...
American police froces are trained by the IDF....
Says it all right there....
Talmud teaches NO MERCY for the goyim....
If a goyim serves the talmudists, they get to be a half step up, but only a half step...
"Heck, India looks like heaven in comparison...."
Seriously?
Please don't make me post youtube videos of Indian cops beating innocent women and children.
Heaven is all cowshit and bloated corpses? Don't think so...
Really. They will beat 1 cop up if they get mad at him, then 20 will show up and shoot ten people.
Or people bathing in a river as corpses flow by.
#DogLivesMatter
What a fucking hero!! To neglect and unnerve.
Officer Jon Thomas? So close ....
John Thomas: The penis. Usually used in British English, but also sometimes in US.

If you have a police dog after you, you must deserve it. Do you have any idea how much time and energy goes into training a police dog? Shit son have some respect.
Zirp, on a sarc roll....well played all the way up and down...
Why don't cops today have any fucking sense? I think partly it's their training and partly it's because the police have become pussified. Literally. Women don't belong on patrol. Because of the asymetrical threat they often face, the thinking has permeated the police ranks that any amount of force is justified. When police were mostly large men, they could afford to be more nonchalant when faced with threats. This is no long the way they view it.
Pittsburgh is confronting its budget woes and improving services by hiring police officera who can't protect the public but rather must be protected from the public.
Pittsburgh Police Bureau Set To Welcome First Transgender Officer
Sources confirm to KDKA’s Marty Griffin that discussions are underway to figure out how to accommodate the officer.
The officer is still in the training phase at the Pittsburgh Police academy.
“You wouldn’t want this officer to be a target out there for the general public,” says Gary Van Horn with the Delta Foundation.

Chief: "Whatya mean we gotta build an extra bathroom and locker room?"
"It's right here in the Official Bath House manual, Chief."
Be prepared to police yourself folks. The police are less and less likely to do it for you. Most here probably do that anyway.
I'm still not very good at it. My temper gets in the way too much. I had a situation just last week with some jerk screaming obscenities at me at the gas pump. And yes, regrettably, I started screaming back. But this just makes me renew my commitment to fly as low-profile as possible and to be as non-reactive as I can be in public interactions. And as has been already stressed, don't call the cops if you can handle it yourself.
Saw a good example of this in my hometown just recently. Group of minorities fighting, 5'8" skinny young cop trying to restore order and being ignored. When the 6'6" middle aged guy with the club showed up things calmed down.
Plus, I think in the 70s people would have demanded justice for this type of thing.
Govt math - Violence on dog X 7 + violence on 'Police Officer' = You're FUCKED.
@Zirpedge- Thank you. I was looking at this all wrong. I was focussing my attention in the wrong area. Now I see clearly.
It all hinges on the type & size of the dog.
Some little ankle-biting shit tries to bite you, you kick or stomp it. Some pit charges you, you use your weapon.
If the dog was so savage then how did Officer Friendly survive the incident despite the fact that he missed it entirely?
I wasn't defending the cop, just responding to zirp above.
The officer fired a warning shot that ruptured the beasts ear drums. I imagine that it ran off and shit itself under that car parked on blocks on the front lawn.
I know a guy that wears the bite suit for K9 officer training, I asked him one time what he would recommend for evasive action from a police dog. All he could say is when they lose control in training, all they could do is twist the collar to asphyxiate the dog.
He violated a cardinal rule of gun safety: Be sure of your target and what's beyond it. Even if it was a pit he should have taken the bites because a little girl was in the line of fire. His shooting her is simply inexcusable, despite it clearly being an accident. He needs to be forced to go into another line of work.
Edited to add: Never mind. Maynard covered it downstream about an hour ago .
Charge the jerk with assult with a deadly weapon, assaulting a minor and whatever other charges that fit.
(cough) child is being homeschooled (cough)
That's fuckin' funny.
And the lesson couldn't be more clear.
Next time you think you need to call the police, remember this story.
I thought they called a paramedic.
"Who needs a paramedic? Now you really need a paramedic!"
It's no joke. The cops will call CPS to retaliate or intimidate the victim.
Where are you?
Are you?
Schroedinger's Dog.
You can't tell if it's alive or dead until it bites a cop.
Let's see . . . injured mother with small child calls police for medical aid
police arrive at scene
police attempt to shoot family dog
police shoot 4 year old daughter, shattering her leg
police flee the scene . . .
clearly the family is at fault (right Zirpedge??)
duplicate
Blue.
Listen to that piece of shit cop apologist in the video. The paramedics were called because a woman accidentally cut herself but the broad says "the woman who was cutting herself" as if she was nuts and by extension so was the rest of the family including the dog and the four year old. She also says that the cop got there "at the right time" so that he could help the woman. How can you praise the timeliness of a man whose only contribution to this incident was to shoot a child? What a bunch of thugs.
How can you praise the timeliness of a man whose only contribution to this incident was to shoot a child?
No shit. I was pretty agog at fatty-fatty-two-by-four trying to paint the situation as though officer fucktard was some kind of "hero." I hope that hideous bitch gets shot someday by one of the gang in black and is within earshot of some other ass-hat trying to make an incompetent coward sound like some kind of savoir of the common man (Oh gee, we're so fucking lucky he was there!). The only acceptable outcome would be 1) termination for pansy-boy, and 2) something like $10million for the little girl to cover a lifetime of pain and suffering.
Maybe the cop can retire with full disability and benefits from the emotional trauma he went through.
Well, we can all rest easy tonight knowing Officer Fucktard will be getting a lot of paid vacation time while the 'investigation' is executed. Oh, did I mention 'executed' with regard to that officer? Freudian slip.
This incident happened in June and was covered by local papers. The girl has recovered but I don't know what happened to the cop. Question is why are the NYT and others reintroducing this story now? Do TPTB need to inspire another random shooting of a cop for their latest psy-ops campaign?

'Mommy, am I gonna die': Mom of 5-year-old Ohio girl accidently shot by cop trying to subdue dog says officer left sceneSaturday, October 10, 2015, 9:31 PM
http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/mom-girl-accidentally-shot-spea...
I'm pretty certain at this point that if you're /not/ shooting at cops in the USA you're failing your duties as a citizen.
Always defend yourself but never initiate violence against random individuals.
June's agenda was more about race and less about police.
Obama's Merica! What did you expect we would get?
Well, the little girl was white, so Barry's not concerned.
If the little girl was black, he already would've issued an inflammatory statement.
It's certainly something our Nigger President does well. . . arouse racial animus.
Basic handgun safety: Know your target and what is behind it. If you are not willing to destroy it, do not put your finger on the damned trigger!
I don't care if it's a giant Rottweiler attacking you, don't fire in the direction of innocents. Especially children!
Beat the damned dog with your baton or use your blade, don't start shooting if you don't have a clear safe shot!
Remember, the new Motto for all cops is "Get home safely" and not to protect and serve. That may be an accident. So, did the cop get home safely, that is all you need to know.
It's a sad story all the way around, a neighborhood tomcat took the brave officer down on the way back to his cruiser to reload.
Yee-haw, mission 'Get Home Safely' was accomplished by Officer Fucktard. One 4-year-old nearly 'Tango Down', but what's a 4-year-old's life in comparison to Officer Fuckwad's?
If you have any boxing or martial arts in your background/training, it's not that difficult to subdue a dog the size of a German Shepard, Doberman pinscher, etc. I have done so quite a few times, without permanently injuring or killing them (but I easily could have).
There is an agenda behind all these cops shooting dogs.
It's obvious.
Alternatively the officer could have tossed Fido a donut and then ran the other way.
Even mace or pepper spray for that matter.
There is clearly an agenda here.
How have mailmen survived this long without firearms?
Alternatively alternatively Fido should have done the tossing. Instant cop mollifier.
No cop would give up a donut - get serious.
Hopefully soon armed citizens will start shooting back. Like his mother should have blown that jerk away with a 12 gauge. Fuck these cops. Court? Fuck the courts. Shoot the asshole.
I've yet to meet the angry dog that could withstand a size 12 steel cap. I ain't Bruce Lee.
I liked the guy who got on the brownhouse lawn and beat up the dogs. Officer pussy
Columbus....This must be the same Columbus where the police raided the home and shot the dogs inside.
Here's the you tube video ....warning: disturbing video.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hdip3ypW6Kk
Columbus...Add that to the growing list of cities I'll never set foot in.
Edit: my mistake, that raid happend in Columbia, MO. Hard to keep these shootings straight.
He had to leave it was Dunkin Donuts jelly donut break time. He's a hero.
1. Don't talk to police.
Called him over because she cut her arm? WTF? Put a goddamn bandaid on it and leave the cop out of it. When the cops are called, somebody's getting hurt. Full stop. Just don't call them. Ever.
2. White lives don't matter.
If that little girl was black Columbus (largely black) would be on fire right now and lots of MSM cameras would be there telling us how awful and racist white people are, and why that awfulness gives the blacks license to destroy and attack whites with no consequences. Any white person who points this out is branded as racist and shamed almost out of existence.
3. Blue heroes are not subject to the same laws as the rest of us.
Anybody here want to volunteer what they think would happen to a private citizen who dischargex a firearm in city limits (illegal) , fires at a dog (animal cruelty), then misses and hits a little girl, shattering her leg and likely leaving her maimed for life? A white man especially? Attempted murder? Negligent injuring? Attempted manslaughter? A DA would be drooling at the list of felonies that could be thrown at this hypothetical poor marksman.
And the number of Police officers killed by dog bites each year is...
listen dude you club them after they start to chew on you
ps don't shoot unless you are sure your going to hit what your aiming at.. or did they skip that part in training.
you were trained right..?
Re: "you were trained right..?"
My sense is that some departments are actively recruiting brainwashed ex-military, because specialized military training encourages action without thought or feeling. When the shit hits the fan, and officers face large protests, it could be a bloodbath, because ex-militroids are programmed to see the people around them as Enemy. If you want a vision of the future, turn on any major first-person-shooter video game released over the last decade.
The same type gets put in charge of drone strikes, because their minds are incapable of discriminating between legitimate military targets and hospitals or journalists or wedding parties.
The most outrageous part is that there are those among the home audience who will support them...
Well they keep telling us on 'TV' that cops are professionals and should be trusted with guns while private citizens should not.
More like indiscriminate killers.
Maybe we should outlaw police and keep guns legal.
It's getting to the point where calling for help from the police creates a good chance of getting yourself killed.
I think it would be best to arm the citizenry, and have the police do their duties unarmed. If they run into trouble, they've got their backs covered by everyone on the block. Bet that system would be FAR more productive than what we have today.
A police officer shot a child! We need to take all guns away from police officers.
Nope, just from law abiding sane people...
“Officer Thomas then told my sister to stop yelling at him and walked back to his vehicle."
Edit: “Officer Thomas then begged my sister to stop shooting at him and dragged himself back to his vehicle."
Plus, It was a gun free neighborhood!
Ready, fire, aim.
Somebody please tell me what I'm supposed to say in response to this article. Guns are bad? Cops are bad? Dogs are bad? 4 year olds are bad?
What? What do you want from me? You say it, I'll swear to it. I'm numb to all this shit anyway.
WTF covers it nicely.
How about, "It could have been worse. At least they didn't blow up the baby this time."
nodebt, i'm with you on this.
perhaps: in a big enough country, anything (no matter how unlikely) might happen, and today it did.
in any case, there are clearly many stories here that can be spun, depending on whether you are cop lover or cop hater, but if the bare facts are true, i can't get my head around him leaving. so he fucked up....he should have called an ambulance for the girl and administered some first aid to make sure she didn't bleed to death. was he afraid of the aunt? the dog? was he drunk and wanted to get away before other cops could arrive and take him in? clearly, something important is missing....
His main mistake was leaving witnesses......
L.O.F.L.
If the shoe were on the other foot, let's say 4 men broke into my house (unidentified, unannounced) @ 4 AM, I'd do EVERYTHING I could to put them all down. . . Mozambique down. Run outside my house and put 6 more in the one dragging his leg behind him toward his vehicle down. Dead men tell no tales, particularly in a courtroom. Particularly if they happened to have 'special' status in a courtroom.
He'll probably get written up for that.
Sinister, but funny. +1
Well played.
*Glad I don't live in the States no more...?*
we definitely need serious cop control. Disarm them immediately.
It's time for common sense gun control. Close the Gunsel Loophole.
Did he make it home safe? I mean the the tub of fat police spokeswoman didn't say, that is usually the first thing they want to establish. Other than that, cheers Columbus residents, you get to pay for the multi million dollar settlement, maybe people will start demanding that the funds come out of the police departments retirement fund and this shit would end right fucking now.
We should make police officers proide their own professional liability insurance, like all the rest of us who work as professionals. Police departments could reimburse them the expense, as long as the premium is within a range around the median. A couple ridiculous incidents and a cop won't be able to get insurance. That should be the impetus to find a more suitable line of work.
If the politicians (including Prosecutors, Chiefs of Police, Sheriffs, etc.) can't or won't lead of manage the police, maybe we should let the finance industry try its hand. We've turned everything else in their society over to finance; why not the cops?
Other than that, cheers Columbus residents, you get to pay for the multi million dollar settlement...
Maybe they can claim to be Indigenous People residents and slip away unnoticed.
I'm surprised that with marksmanship skills like this, that it wasn't NYPD.
Somewhere along the line, police became enamored with saving their own lives before protecting the public. Firefighters never lost this distinction because they recognized that the people they save from burning buildings, though perhaps lower-class, lower-educated, and dimmer-future, were still human beings who needed saving.
Somehow, the cops of America decided that their firearm was more important to pull out and use than perhaps spend a week in the hospital from wounds from doing their job. When that happened, yep, they just pull their gun and fire.
When I was a kid, cops who visited my classroom bragged openly about having never ever, in their entire careers, unholstered their weapon. Now firing your weapon on duty is basically routine.
Sorry cops of America, I realize you have a shitty job, but you're supposed to fire LAST, not first. You're the one who is supposed to take a bullet before you fire back because that's what it means to be a public servant. That's just the fucking reality of being a public servant.
This happened right around the time they went from Peace Officer to Law Enforcement Officer. Andy Griffith is dead...
Time to start putting bounties out on outlaws like this. STOP TREATING THEM WITH ANY HUMAN RESPECT. TREAT THEM FOR WHAT THEY ARE: RABID ANIMALS. AND WE ALL KNOW WHAT IS DONE TO RABID ANIMALS.
AND WE ALL KNOW WHAT IS DONE TO RABID ANIMALS.
They are shot at but escape unharmed while a four year old girl lays bleeding nearby?
Honestly, that cop should have died somewhere between shooting the girl and his cruiser. In SC, there is a law on the books that enables a citizen to use lethal force when protecting a 3rd party from a perceived mortal danger. . .
Why do they always kill the dog for?
Breaking news, 6lb toy poodle left with 8 bullets holes, cops said, " I feared for my life"
But on the serious, I hope the little girl recovers, and gets paid, and the cop goes to jail.
Out here in Las Vegas they shoot first, ask questions later.
The problem is that the individual police officers don't pay for their screw ups, we do.
When actions are divorced from accountability, bad shit happens. It's called moral hazard.
"It's just bloody flesh wound you little fucking brat" officer Thomas scolded as he sauntered back to his patrol car and finished off his 5th cappuccino in as many hours........
First mistake, call an ambulance or go to emergency, but never in no circumstances call a cop to your house. I all ready have one dead friend and another I knew well who have been killed by cops recently. My friend was just drunk in his own house, had a domestic dispute with his wife who called and soon as he opened the door he was shot with a rifle dead.
At least the other one was dealing drugs and got killed in a drug raid but still pretty sad.
I wonder if you can specify a paramedic or fire man when you call 911. Do you have the right to refuse the dispatcher sending a cop? (disclaimer: too lazy to google it right now)
How much further down this road gets travelled before armed groups deliberately call for the cop. . . to eliminate them?
During the troubles in Northern Ireland both sides did that to taxi drivers. Protestant and catholic terrorists would call up taxi firms operating from areas of the other religion and murder the drivers when they came to pick up their fare. They called it "dial a victim".
That's rich. You called them terrorists. At what point (if ever) would you call a fucking cop a terrorist?
Fuck 911 , that number brings hell to your door .
+1,000,000,000
But it could be an awfully effective way to get rid of that annoying neighbor! ;)
"Hello, 911 dispatch, yes, I think I just heard shots fired down the street @ 1000 Officer Fucktard Way. Yes, it's a little far away, but I believe I saw (describe your annoying neighbor) wave his gun around, followed by shots and a few screams." That address is 1000 Officer Fucktard Way. Please tell the responding officers to be careful, it seems REALLY dangerous. I heard a lot of sounds like sounded like an automatic assault rifle. You know, (insert annoying neighbor's name) has a really bad attitude, and I recall him saying he was violently inclined toward police officers. . . So, PLEASE, be careful. . ."
That was a good one. Yup, murder's pretty funny.
Murder? O really? In my scenario, who would have been the group pulling the trigger? Oh that's right, the fucking cops. But we all know on-duty CANNOT commit murder.
In Indiana they passed a law where the citizens can shoot back... 49 States to go!
Had it been one of my granddaughters, he would have never made it out of the yard alive. Might have even gone Taliban on him, and mounted his head {dark sunglasses and all} on the fence post out front as a warning to the others.
I like how you think!
That is exactly what it's going to take to turn this around.
We call it: ACCOUNTABILITY MOTHERFUCKER.
No paid administrative leave. Rather, your fucking head on a pike you fucking coward.
This cop should pay restitution to the girl's family, be charged with the appropriate crimes (that you or I would be charged with if it was us that did what he did) and fired from his job. NOW.
Anything less? Head on a motherfucing pike.
Yeah, we got one thing right here. I can guarantee you had it been my daughter that son of a bitch wouldn't have made it back to his car.
That goes for shooting my dog as well........
In Arizona, anyone can use force, up to and including deadly force to prevent rape and murder (I'd have to look it up to be exact but it includes those). It doesn't matter who is committing the crime.
I'd have killed the cop. "He just shot my daughter. The dog was just in the way, coming to her defense. I fired and kept firing until the threat was stopped. I have no idea why he was shooting my daughter, I was trying to stop a murder, his motive was not my concern."
That's terrible, I'm still not over the infant that got it's face blown up with the flash grenade. Just remember even if you don't have kids if you call the cops it is not unlikely that one of the first things they will is shoot your dog, this seems to be standard proceedure these days.
Mindless thugs/gangsters. To the gallows fascists.
"To serve and protect" *cough*
You couldn't pay me to do that job in this jungle, which is why they are hiring testosterone overloaded psychopaths to do it.
Goon squad coming to your door soon! (already kicked in a relatives door for no reason - no apology - no payment for damage).
Funny how fast Brown Shirts turned into black boots and skulls back in the day, eh?
What many people don't know is that ove r80% of the Gestapo were just regular German police during the preceding years.
Cops don't make moral judgements about laws. They just follow orders and enforce them.
If a law was passed in this country requiring that all people who posess any illegal substance be summarily executed, most cops would just go right along with it.
2¢
Of course he missed the dog, chihuahuas are not easy targets.
I'll probably take trip to the Pokey, before I listen to some indoctrinated child.
That is all/
Don't EVER call the police under any circumstances. Don't EVER invite them onto your property or into your house. I don't care if theres an army of zombies marching across your front yard, the cops will only make it worse, learn to deal with any situation yourself. Don't EVER even talk to police even if they talk to you, you always have the right to remain silent.
Problem is they can violate your rights and come on your property anyways if the "believe" there is probable cause. They will just conveniently make up an excuse later why your rights were violated.
We need laws mandating every cop wears body cams while on duty. And if they tamper, disable or otherwise obstruct filming they get fired on the spot.
I don't care if theres an army of zombies marching across your front yard, the cops will only make it worse

In the words of Remo Gaggi "Why take a chance?"
He missed the charging dog and still lives to walk away?
You remember the old joke? You stop the dog from charging by taking away its credit card.
The little girl should have stopped resisting. If she has nothing to hide what's she worried about. The officer deserves to go home to his family and if shooting a 4yo makes that happen , so be it.
Yep, just rub some dirt on it and stop whining.
cops are cowards
Not as long as they have an M-4 in the car and back-up on the way.
Yeah, LEO is standing down and afraid of public outcry. These mentally defused assholes on roids, coming back from war torn, commodity driven " hell holes" have NO business patroling the streets of America.
These people need help, to re-assimilate. The last thing these people need is to be armed in Kevlar on the streets of America.
These are shell shocked children. They completely lack the communicatory skills required for Law Enforcement. Their superiors know this!
The officer's name is John Thomas?
That's English for penis.
If it was Richard they could have called him dick.
Let's call him dick anyway.
Even the TerminatorArnie didn't "blow-up" the Pool Bar.
My guess is that 7 or 8 Tenths, of law Enforcement is > Discretionary<
There's a big difference between human interaction and force.
Not everyone needs to be arrested. Warnings work for some people.
The problem with LEO is that they're out of touch with the communities they work in.
I'll bet most LEO can't stand their patrol. They've been taught to take charge, but don't understand the ramifications of their actions.
Just because you wear a badge, doesn't make you smart.
