A "dangerously out of control" bully-type dog was shot SIX times by cops after it attacked another dog and injured three people.
Gun cops were deployed to the Calderwood area of East Kilbride after reports of the large dog attacking a Collie at around 10.25am this morning.
Local officers attempted to restrain the 'Xl-Bully' type dog at an address on Mannering but were forced to call in specialists after they failed to contain the crazed animal.
In the shocking footage, officers are heard counting to ten before four loud shots are fired. The dog is heard yelping, barking and squealing before two more bullets are deployed which eventually kill it....may I recommend this one?
After all, with the influx of these things north of The Wall, you're going to need it...
Another dreadful council estate, with such horrid buildings that the only folk who'd deign to live there would be the worst type of tattooed scum. Why do councils employ such useless building designers? They don't merit the term architect.
ReplyDeleteAnd if the Police were going to fire 6 shots, then why the hell didn't they reserve at least 2 of them for the dog's owners?
Why do councils employ such useless building designers?
ReplyDeleteBecause they're:
1. cheap, or
2. related to councillors/senior officials, or
3. members of ruling party
or, probably, all three. Although, now I think about it, if 2. or 3. I doubt if they're cheap
"Use enough Gun" isn't really the truth, although it does make it easier and/or more certain.
ReplyDeleteThere are uncounted documented examples of large animals (elk, grizzly bear, etc.) being killed with everything down to .22 Long rifle rounds. Shot 'placement' is always more important than shot 'power'.
Point? You could give those fumbling PC idiots employed as ARV (elite specialists, my ars*) officers (chosen specifically, and only, for their politics, demographic descriptions, possession of certain types of genitals and preferences for similar, and willingness to "follow any order") and ... they'd still need an entire magazine full (and probably end up killing everything/everyone 'but' the targetted animal).
[I know of one specific "officer" who was failed (in the past, not that it would happen now) from the training course because he (weedy, 5' extreme effeminate, to the point of caricature) point-blank refused to enter a building in a training-scenario in which children were being murdered by an armed psychopath ... without back-up.
'He' is now, of course, in charge of the regional "child protection" unit. You couldn't make this sh*t up, could you?!]
This is Scotland where air rifles and pistols are licensed and regulated. The best and funny answer is they probably were using air pistols but they would never have killed it with those.
ReplyDeleteThe simplest answer is they were lousy shots and a small, fast moving target is a lot different from a stationary target six feet away that you and twenty of your mates are firing at the same time.
Perhaps the shooting plan had serious flaws? The assumption that all the gunplod could count up to ten in the same order, carried significant elements of hazard and risk.

ReplyDeleteOf all these stories, I've only seen one where when the pictures emerged, I didn't think 'Yes, that's the natural sort of habitat of these things and the idiots who want them'...
"... then why the hell didn't they reserve at least 2 of them for the dog's owners?"
It's another 'rescued' animal shipped north and placed in the care of....a 18 year old girl, can you believe? Who's at least been arrested.
"...Although, now I think about it, if 2. or 3. I doubt if they're cheap"
Quite!
"There are uncounted documented examples of large animals (elk, grizzly bear, etc.) being killed with everything down to .22 Long rifle rounds."
No doubt! I think one of the old time African hands - Bell? - hunted elephant with a calibre experts considered too small. But when you absolutely, positively need to stop something, accept no substitutes!
A close range shotgun proved effective in the Limehouse dog incident, after all.
"'He' is now, of course, in charge of the regional "child protection" unit."
🤦♀️
"The simplest answer is they were lousy shots and a small, fast moving target is a lot different from a stationary target..."
It now transpires from witnesses the animal was secured with a catchpole and lying still!
"The assumption that all the gunplod could count up to ten in the same order..."
That part baffled the hell out of me! Why ten?
