So far but they hated the ride to and from (need the blood tests results). One is on it's fourth home (cut the steel band off on her) and the other on it's third (including the rescue for each).
i forgot are you fostering them or are you going to keep them?

either way they couldn't be with a better person.

we had a parrot that would come in at a clinic i worked at in nashville that would say "i'm going to bite you" then start laughing when you were trying to trim its beak..

The authoritarian state at work, this covers from 2006-2012, prior to Snowden in 2013:

Checking numbers, just taking orders
Please don't involve me in your world of mental borders
Afraid of thinking 'cause it might get you in trouble
What use is living, why not perish on the double
The party's over, you hear my warning
I've got some news for you, there's a new day dawning
Mindless followers, that's what we have become
It sure is nice to think we've never hurt anyone

It's not so hard to see, we live by our decisions
It's time to put an end to all of these divisions
It's not democracy if you don't take a sample
Stop the hypocrisy and lead by your example
All around us, the storm's already forming
Things'll get so hot, you'll wish for global warming
You will be lucky just to wake up in the morning
Go on with your business and do your best to ignore me

There's another way
It's up to you to say
You can choose what to do
Don't ever let them take that away

Due to a dispatcher's mistake, the incident occurred after police falsely believed that they were responding to a robbery. The men involved in the shooting were on bicycle helping their friend search for his stolen bike near the drugstore.

None of the three officers involved in the shooting death of 35-year-old Ricardo Diaz Zeferino were charged. Eutiquio Acevedo Mendez has recovered after being shot in the back. Diaz Zeferino was shot eight times.

That was one dumb fucking kid...
Hope they take that cop down hard though.
He was killed for being a drunk nervous non-white guy looking for his brother's stolen bike:

Diaz-Zeferino, who was drunk, then lowered his hands and slowly took about five small steps toward police. He spread his arms out with palms open as if to plead with them. Told to put them back up, he complied, then removed his ball cap and lowered his hands as shots were fired.

From one angle, his palms are open and facing upward. Footage from a second camera behind two of the officers showed Diaz-Zeferino's right hand briefly swung out of view at his waist when they fired.

The officers said they feared he was reaching for a weapon.

What the videos don't show is that he wasn't armed and witnesses said Zeferino was trying to tell police they had the wrong men.

The stolen bike belonged to his brother. He and the two other men were friends looking for it.

The unlocked bike was swiped outside a CVS pharmacy. Police dispatchers erroneously reported it as a robbery and made it a high-priority call, raising the specter of armed suspects.

Lawyers for Diaz-Zeferino said the investigation into the shooting was tainted because officers were able to review the videos before giving statements, a courtesy not offered to a member of the public involved in a shooting.

Attorney Samuel Paz said he may ask federal prosecutors to investigate whether the shooting was a civil rights violation.

"When the public sees the video and other law enforcement agencies see the video, this is very much a criminal act," Paz said.

another sad story of a dog killer who will probably never see justice. forgetting about your dog for 10 hours while you take a nap is unfathomable. im sure their investigation will prove the dog resisted arrest and caused his own death
It's a dog, not 6lb 5oz baby Jesus. That said, if the police prosecute perps that shoot at their dogs as attempted murder of a police officer, the same standard should apply here.

nobody fucks with the jesus though.
and like you said, if a civilian even injured a k9 cop, theyd be prosecuted immediately. but if ol piggy does it, its just a "tragic mistake."

Id have to be really really drunk to not keep my hands up when three cops are shouting at me with their guns drawn.
Really drunk or really stupid...
he most definitely should have been high.

thankfully the body cam didnt "malfunction" or somehow turn off to catch this pos murder someone. since when is not having a license and license plate grounds for being murdered by a cop?
