      This one looks less like a joke and more like a sad circumstance.  Guy had a restraining order put in place by his wife last year, then they reconciled without having the judge dismiss the order.

      There’s probably more to the backstory, but the officer ordering the dog to bite strikes me as use of force that should be questioned. A true dog bite is a fantastically destructive thing.

      Nothing racial at all.

        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.

          Agree with you bob.  I suspect dog attack is somewhere between choke hold and gunshot.

          its probably beyond taser too.

      There is a reason they train police dogs to speak German!
