Raleigh K-9 Cop Injured In Accident Dies
Moderator: S2k Moderators
Out of line? How so? Duck asked a question and I answered it.
Do YOU know the complete circumstances of this accident? If you do, please clue us in.
Sky already said there's been no further reports, so how can anyone say who's to blame for this unfortunate incident with the little info we were given?
Yet anyone who refuses to be a part of the antidog-killer mob becomes fodder for your ire? I own three pets and know I do not deserve it.
Now I have to wonder if the patrolmen aren't asking themselves why they let this dog play next to live traffic--if it's so close to being human. Would anyone let their kids?
Sorry, Lindaloo, I fail to see how setting the record straight can be considered controversial. Or asking questions.
I did re-read the topic and these are the questions it begs to ask.

Actually, the dog was training (as officers in the force often do). It was not "playing."

Whatever Kiko. What right do you have coming in here and labeling any of us "anti" anything? Sounds like nothing but a bunch of pot stirring.
And what record did YOU set straight? All you did was tell us YOUR version.

Don't label me a "dog hater".
We didnt have to label you anything.. Kiko and yourself wear big old signs around your necks

It's the way you guys are saying it Bahamas and Kiko. You're opinions are valid but heck you're SO defensive and you do nothing but put people on the defensive;
No, we do not have all of the facts, but we're making assumptions just like you are (dog hit and then ran off...). It's called A DISCUSSION. There are alot of animal lovers on this board and yes this is going to get some passionate responses.
If the anger displayed here on a message board is any indication, this dog killer is guilty until proven innocent and should throw him/herself on the mercy of the court for protection, because you're starting to sound like a lynching mob to me.
Get the facts people, then get to making judgements.
Guilty until proven innocent? Can anyone say 'To Kill A Mockingbird'?

Well said, Stephanie!
Additionally, if I might be so frank, you come off as sounding very arrogant and condescending in your replies, Kiko. No offense, but the whole "intelligence dictates...." line really did it for me.
There are ways to speak influentially and intelligently and then there are ways to come off as an intellectual, pompous, know-it-all. And there's a thin line between the two.

It's called pedantry, Duck. And when people want to apply labels to others, to ridicule and scorn, it's time to use a little on them.
Fight fire with fire? No thanks, I won't sink to that level, but I will rise above it. And I won't be intimidated either.
Yesterday I was told, "there are other topics on the board, post somewhere else". So I see something else of interest, raise a few questions, say what's on my mind, then get told to stop posting?
It was the anger I saw in this thread that wasn't exactly relaxing, friendly chit-chat. Way before I called them on it.
Some like to call it pot-stirring, I'll call it raising the level of awareness that there just may be another side to the story.
Get it?

Who are you to police us? Yes, I am the one who said there are more topics to post in. But, once again you show up to stir up controversy. Get it?

This has nothing to do with policing, Lindaloo, it's about getting a point to sink in.
Duck, sometimes you have to be VERY precise with metaphysical concepts. Concepts that could help those who show anger identify that it could be misplaced by mistakening attributing the cause.
Sorry for the tenacity, but I refuse to stoop to name-calling and the rest of the crap I see so much of in the middle of these discussions.
What I saw here is very simple: An attitude of guilty until proven innocent. Can I say it more plainly?

Stop being so political in EVERY post you make. It is quite boring.

Ok, (though I fail to see what's political about this).
Say the dog ran into the parkway and KILLED the people in the car?
Then who's anger do we suffer?
This isn't political, it's what I hear people here say all the time: Look at the problem from all sides.
Anything wrong with that approach?
