In this case, it wasn't the thief who was the crazy one.

Had I managed to catch up with him before he dropped the phone I would have advised him to stay in school, as he was terrible at profiling targets. I was wearing running shoes, for chrissake.
Lol. Geez. My favorite stories are when punks target old guys who turn out to have been marines.

When my boys bike got stolen we called the police, who went, asked the boy if he took it, and he said no. They were about to leave when I showed up. They said he doesn't have it, I said there was a crowd of folks who saw him take it. Sure enough, he had it, was already removing stuff to put on the bike frame he had.
The police in this little town are a joke.

A cop who resorts to shooting a dog, rather than just leaving the yard, is not one I want patrolling my streets. Talk about escalating a situation unnecessarily.

The National Canine Resource Council put up a good series of videos to assist police in understanding dog encounters:

I wish they'd be required viewing for all police departments.
