You need some sense tasered into you by people with "small pen!ses!"

It's all done in fun! If someone gets offended its because they have no sense of humor. Well the head shot might be a little much as far as humor goes. That was meant to be serious.:o

Thank you for the good natured cartoon tasering, Ellie. I spared you my cartoon concealed weapon because that wouldn't have been fair! My cartoon lived through your cartoon taser. Oh, and I didn't drop trow. That wouldn't have been fair to you either. :P:lol:

Of course, as has been said in this thread several times, the key word is TRAINING. Some on this thread seem to believe that what the officer did was wrong, even tho what he did is EXACTLY what all LE officers are trained to do.

If the officer had done otherwise, under these circumstances, he would have been heavily reprimanded-------

Either change the TRAINING, or except the consequences.

As a former LE supervisor, I totally support what the BP Agent did.

Barry- I respect your background and won't quibble with your conclusion, except I wonder if what was posted here provides enough specific detail to allow the absolute that you state.

Baja H-----The words "rock throwing" and "dog and agent injured" were all the info I needed, assuming that the man shot was responsible for both. The other information possibly helpful I thought was adaquately covered elsewhere in the thread.

If somebody was throwing rocks at me (assualt) and I was armed, I would defend myself fast using "center mass" shooting techniques. It is normally thought of as self defense-------this hypothetical perp meant mortal harm to me, in my book----and I am not concerned with his motivation at that particular moment. If I had time, and was not injured, then the particular situation dictates what I would do----------we pay officers to think, and use their best judgement, within guidelines and training.

I will stick with my original assessment of the BP agents actions, but I appreciate the emotional horror of it all in others.
