Yeah specific dog breeds are well known for listening to their owners the first time they try to control them. Officers should let the dog attack them and bite them while the owner is “getting them under control” instead of shooting them justifiably.

I seriously hope you’re being sarcastic

Did the officers have a search warrant to enter the property/pasture? Any probable cause?

UPDATE: THe city released a statement. The officers were searching for a missing child. Still no excuse for killing a baby donkey.

quote:

The Cedartown Police Department is aware that a city police officer shot and killed a donkey in the early hours of Sunday morning. A Cedartown police officer was on the scene after being called by Polk County Police to assist with a nighttime search for a missing child. The child had not been found at of the time of the shooting. Thankfully, the child was later located at a church near the pasture where the donkey was killed. The Cedartown Police Department has turned over the investigation of the animal shooting to the Georgia Department of Agriculture Law Enforcement Division for investigation and placed the officer involved on paid administrative leave while this investigation is ongoing. Because of the nature of this investigation, neither the Cedartown Police Department nor any other city department can comment further on the matter at this time.

As for all the “sue them” comments. In most states, not sure about GA though, liability for killing an animal is restricted to the replacement value of the animal. There’s no Pain and Suffering, loss of enjoyment or anything else. Sorry.

Lighten up.

They can and will stomp the shite out of you.


well, you may be correct in principal. But look at the deceased donkey. Is he capable of kicking you or biting you? Certainly. But he isn't going to kill you or even cause serious injury to a grown man. And I say this as someone who has been kicked and bitten by a fair number of equids (foals and adults). Hard not to have ill will towards the officer in this case. Just another stupid act by a LEO that causes people to have so little respect and regard for them or the job they do.

I just want the cops to live with a consistent set of rules.

If you not allowed to shoot a police dog they sick on you without being charged with assaulting or shooting a police officer? Then the police must also be charged with a similar crime for shooting family pets or livestock

GA police were singing the 69 boyz song:

Let me kill that donkey donkey
Let me kill that donkey donkey
Let me kill that donkey donkey
Let me kill that donkey donkey
Let me kill that donkey donkey
Let me kill that donkey donkey

Please (hey hey) Please (hey hey) Please (hey hey)

. They know it's private property, so they kill pets as intimidatin tacitic, I promose that the cop was not in fear for their life; they chose to kill the donkey.

“all donkeys are assault donkeys”

A friend of mine was feeding and watering a herd of donkeys while owner was in hospital.I went with him several times,donkeys never showed any sign of aggression.They were kinda standoffish,didn’t come up to be petted.

My friend said the owner would find a dead dog occasionally that made the mistake of coming in the pasture.

If that was my pet, the Georgia police would be conducting many funerals this week.
