Just as in warfare, there is a continuum of force in policing. We’ve already discussed the use of nuclear weapons to end WW II.
We’ve seen a range of force in law enforcement over the last three months; from retreat, to stand down, to tasers, to lethal, to intentional. So where do you put K-9 units?
Fido behaved poorly in this case it appears. But I suspect deployment of dogs generally leads to preferred outcomes and reduce risks to suspects and officers both.
Review the K-9 training and move on. Much ado about nothing.
Here's a toast with one last pour, may it last forever and a minute more;
Good fortune seems to you have sung, to live and love way past long
