A California deputy accidentally shot himself while trying to kill a dog that he said was threatening his life on Wednesday, but video captured by a local television station later showed the animal much smaller than reported and peacefully playing with children.

Why am I not surprised that this cop is so clumsy with a weapon he carries all day on each day on duty and is also so terrified (or hateful) of dogs? :x

Sometimes I wonder if they don't test police candidates for sociopathy and make sure that they get as many as possible on the force.

I don't have any sympathy for people like him. I'm not much of a dog person either, but FFS that dog wasn't doing anything dangerous. I suspect that that cop attempted to attack that dog because it was a pitbull, a breed unfairly associated with violent behavior. Yes, they are big and somewhat intimidating-looking, but 99% of the time when they act aggressively, it's because their owners either mistreat them or encourage them to act aggressively. It's entirely possible for someone to have a pitbull that's friendly and well-tempered, and I'm sure that most actually are.

Well maybe next time, he won't try to be such a hero in front of a camera while trying to kill a dog.

I believe they cross index it with poor marksmanship to determine candidate suitability.

was thinking that to...although we may be thinking of entirely different areas of the body,balls or head? am thinking head;then thatd be darwinism in action,evil scumbag cop.
god help anyone who gets arrested by him, he will probably give them a beating in the cells for doing nothing.

thankfuly the dog is ok,american pitbulls are incredible dogs,just google 'pitbull sharky' for one example of their nature when brought up by someone who gives a damn.
