Dog Dies After Being Deliberately Run Over By North Wales Police

[Spymaster]

Of course, traffic police cars should be kitted out with shotguns for occasions such as this. The animal could have been shot with minimal fuss and drama and nobody (apart from a few wallies on here) would've batted an eyelid.

What's that bit in the highway code about driving at a safe speed ?
ie drive at such a speed that you can stop within the distance you can see to be clear.

I live in a rural area, and drive in the dark a lot - but in almost 30 years I've yet to hit a fox / badger / dog / cat / cow / horse / deer - despite seeing them in front of me many times ... I'll admit to one pheasant three years ago that flew across and hit the side (not the front) of the car. And I don't hang about.

2 foxes , 3 pheasants , and a very near miss with a deer. Cars always been fine.

Sister in law hit an owl, wrote her car off.


Rarely see live badgers

while I am convinced of the effeciency of the wider machine- how could you not be, there is one monopoly on violence and the police are holding park lane and the greens.

I am not convinced that giving some of these dickheads a shotgun is a sane idea. We've seen what they do with a taser. Reports of a man weilding a samurai sword in the region? taze that blind man with his stick. I would never underestimate how low cunning and high sly the OB can be. They've got enough tools. Don't give them a remmington. It'd be four dead kids and two cases of toes blown off before we could get them to put their shotguns away.

Yes, filth should have shut the road, like what they normally do. Lazy cunts.

We don't know that this was possible, logistically speaking. How many police were there? Whether a sufficiently large section of the road could be shut in both directions? How long that would take, and the risk in the meantime. And, if the dog had then gone into the undergrowth, what then - leave it closed? How far away was the nearest dog handler?

So, unattractive as it was, the action they took may well have been the least bad option.

I don't rush to give cops the benefit of the doubt, but would be the first to criticise them if they'd failed to act quickly to prevent the loss of human life.

They could've tried closing the road, there's the A5 to use as an alternative and very few cars about anyway.

Then only nocturnal green-laners would be faced with the deadly peril of DOG.

Don't be so hysterical, loss of human life cos a dog is outside unaccompanied

There's shit loads of dogs mooch round the streets here, surprised, amazed we don't hear more about the carnage.

 

[Spymaster]

It also sounds like quite a skilful bit of driving on the part of the plod driver who managed to kill the dog, presumably without any other casualties or damage. Well done that man.

Years of practice on brown people has led to mad skillz.

You fucking troll

 

[SpookyFrank]

Was it a black dog?

Mixed race, still fair game for OB

 

[N_igma]

Seems to be normal procedure. When I was taking driving lessons I swerved to avoid a dog on the road. The instructor told me that if a situation like that arose during my test I would have to drive and run it over or else I'd fail the test because it could cause an accident. Thought that was a bit harsh I'd rather fail the test than kill a poor dog. Luckily I didn't encounter any dogs and duly passed

 

[Athos]

Yeah, cos you could be sure it'd stay there.

No, because it had been causing vehicles to swerve on a fast road. Are you suggesting the dog in this incident wasn't causing a risk of an accident?

 

[LDC]

This thread is like something out of Viz.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

I'm suggesting that there is no such thing as a fast road, the road was stationary as always. Irresponsible drivers could have caused a RTC by driving too fast on the road, it would not have been an accident though.

Yep, but considering the lack of firearms available to our police using their car seems to be the best option. Fuck knows why people are getting so wound up.

Could someone who is not at fault be killed? Is a dog's life a fair price to prevent that?

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

They killed the dog, but I did not speak out cos I was not a dog. They killed the sound man and, oh poop.

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

Could someone who is not at fault be killed?

Not if the police had closed the road. But yes, weaving all over, trying to splat the mutt whilst the road was open to the public, yeah, I can see how people could be killed by that kind of madness.

 

[Spymaster]

Yet they weren't, which again points to the skill of the police officers.

You've ignored all the logistical issues which might make it impossible to effectively and promptly close the road in both directions, such that the risk would persist.

 

[beesonthewhatnow]

They killed the dog coz it was a menace and could have got someone killed. I didn't speak out coz this was the entirely sensible thing to do.

As for the sound man, well, if you ever see me running around a busy road and attacking someone trying to move me on, feel free to run me over

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

Yet they weren't, which again points to the skill of the police officers.

How do you know they weren't? You going with the story the IPCC and their bucket of white emulsion will bullshit up; dog was running wildly causing cars to swerve, yet standing still waiting to be run over?

Other dogs were lobbing tennis balls as the brave officers tried to help. It was winter but it still had its summer coat on. It jumped the barriers, before going through the tunnel, over the see-saw and weaved in and out of the sticks...

 

[Bahnhof Strasse]

You are right, they would need police cars and shit to do that

 

[Athos]

Yeah, 'cos every force can instantly deploy unlimited resources to anywhere.

Two cars. (((((Welsh pigs))))

 

[Athos]

Two cars. (((((Welsh pigs))))

Even if the other car was only 10 minutes away, that's long enough for someone to be killed. Not worth the risk.

You can be killed in a second, see the poor woman in Guildford on Saturday. No dogs involved there though.

So better to contact HQ and get them to get the Superintendent briefed who then gives the green light to hoof it up and down the road until the dog is squished.

The filth's version is full of holes, as always when they kill in cold blood, hence the IPCC getting dragged in to help with the cover-up. That so many people are so quick to not only believe the shit they shovel, but come up with far fetched nonsense to back up their bollocks goes to show how much this place has changed. JCdM would be spinning in his grave
