Are we citizens or civilians?
Actually, in court testimony, it is standard practice for police to refer to us as 'subjects'... as in subjects to the authority of a soveriegn or king.

Were they big Doberman Pinscher guard dogs or the kind of dog you can carry around? In any case, I don't see how shooting and killing mayoral pooches could have been appropriate.
They were labrador retrievers, and according to the report, at least one of them was shot while walking away from the police.
When the Mayor identified himself, the police didn't believe him, and handcuffed him in his boxer shorts.
