[QUOTE="soberups, post: 1171565, member: 14668"] The entire situation was friend'ed up and there is blame for all sides. He wasnt arrested for filming the officers, he was arrested for coming too close and being a distraction with the dog and his loud music during a time when the cops were engaged in an armed standoff with criminals. To his credit, he complied with officers instructions and did not in any way resist arrest. However, he failed to properly secure the dog by rolling up the window. The cops friend'ed up because the guy was [I]not[/I] being violent or resisting, so at the moment it looked like the dog might get out they should have [I]immediately[/I] unhooked him and let him go secure the dog properly. For that matter, they shouldnt have even arrested him at all, merely issued him a citation. I'm a dog lover and the full unedited video brought tears to my eyes. However...if an 80+ lb. agitated Rottweiler ever lunges at me in[I] any[/I] sort of aggressive manner, I'm going to blow it away. Sorry, but a Rottie that big can tear your face off or permanently maim you. Botttom line: the shooting itself was justified, but the officers actions leading up to the situation were not. [/QUOTE]
