Everyday dogs are used as a vicious tool by local and state police forces, which stretches as far as the US military. No amount of training can impede a dogs primal instinct to hunt and kill, many Americans, particularity African Americans are permanently maimed, disfigured, and irreparably damaged by the excessive brutal force used by police all over our country. Not to mention as flesh is being torn from your legs as bystanders in blue watch, laugh ad take their time, many people have a fight or flight instinct. If one happens to hurt or kill a police K9, the charge is felony assault or murder in most states, which can land you up to 45 years in prison. Not to mention, the maximum penalty for an individual convicted of cruelty to animals is 3 years imprisonment under the Animal Care and Protection Act 2001. It is clear in many videos, the police handlers are often scared and hesitant to control their own dogs. Its time to abolish this barbaric, Jim Crow era police tactics!
