I wasn't even aware that there was issue or discussion about dogs and crowd control.

I was watching the documentary about how the Government squashed the "Bonus Army" in DC so many years ago, killing a few.

So much human behavior can only be understood, putting it into Caveman and Tribal Mentality perspective. Much about humans hasn't changed since then.

It might surprise you Richard, how peoples own interests and beliefs can truly cloud their memory of events.

Nothing about human nature surprises me. That comes from years of dealing with all types.

So if I'm legally protesting it's okay to yell obscenities at the cops and call them names? It's okay for me to legally stand out in the road in front of your house and call you a fat arse??

So it's probably also okay for me to lightly toss something in the general direction of the cops during said protest? And if I'm cold it's probably okay to light a little fire too?

Funny how this spirals downhill. And it's most definitely ALWAYS the cop's fault. :confused:

Reductio ad absurdum, calling someone a name is not the same thing as throwing molotov cocktails or rocks, there's a long history of name calling being free speech. the government (cops are part of the Government) can't stop you from saying things (with exceptions as ruled by various Courts, yelling fire, inciting violence), mind you, someone standing on the public right of way that says something odious to a private person has a Right to that speech, and they should know that sometimes that speech will have consequences.

I agree with all you said above.

Keep in mind, there's wayyyyyyy more to the story of cops turning the dogs loose on the crowd than what is shown in the phone video.

The irony is I have no clue to what video you're refering to:laughing:

I just brought up the example of a LEO turning "a dog loose to flush the bird out" as an example of why a well trained aggressive dog may be of use (genearlly in a LEO's hands).

My primary point is that dogs owned by families that show signs of aggression are more likely a liability than an asset to those families who own them. I have my dogs to alert me and my family. It's up to myself (and my family when I'm not there) to protect ourselves as well as our dogs.

After doing some reasearch thinking about it, in the US, it comes down to state laws as to what is allowed per obscenities.

Personally what I've found is if you want to be a dick, never yell and always smile whenever your talking.

The reality is calling a guy who has a gun on hip and a badge on his chest names is more than stupid even if you have a legal right to do so.

That video is very , very funny!!! An example of why you should always question why your friends are suddenly "daring" you to do something!!!! :laughing:

She is lucky she was not killed. A kick to the head will often do that.
