Here is a cop who needs at a bare minimum needs a lecture and additional training.
Ya think?
He definitely needs a refresher course in not committing assault or perjury. Or, as far as law enforcement is concerned, at least not getting caught.

I'd become a cop-killer real quick.

I have no training and would not be armed so he'd kill me very very fast probably.
I wouldn't be rational enough to walk inside and get a weapon. I would just snap and run at them screaming

He's black, a doggy dog, and a known drug user. How is he still alive?

If the NSA/CIA et al. can read your mail doesn't mean that a small town in WV can.
It's possible yes, but it would depend largely on whether a national agency would want to bother.
A much better test case would be one from NYC or LA.

Option 2 or ....
Option 3, which you didn't mention: the guy is a dumb arse and is just wrong, but not intentionally lying, or ..,
Option 4 : The reporter missed some of the nuance of his statement. He MAY have said something to the effect that in his opinion, he was trained that he IS ALLOWED to shoot a dog in circumstances other than when he fears he is in danger FROM THE DOG. Such as when the dog poses a significant distraction during a life or death confrontation where he perceives that the totality of the circumstances poses an immediate risk of danger to himself or the community.
It sounds like it was likely a combination of options 3 and 4, if I had to guess.

If we are at the point where police are just going to shoot any and everything they regard as a "potential threat" immediately, and ask questions later, I think I would rather we just go to having no police force. Let citizen's patrols and self-protection be the new answer to law enforcement.
Not to sound like a dick, but one of the reasons police are paid fairly well (and respected for their service, similar to military) is because they risk their lives to protect and serve us. It's hard to see how that mission is being accomplished when they simply show up and shoot a kid with a bb gun, or kill a dog who is barking at them. There really isn't much risk left to the job when you just shoot everything.
Obviously this is not the case everywhere, or even in the majority of cases, but it does seem to be becoming more and more common.

As long as they are not held accountable they are going to act like it. Prosecutors should be held accountable for their carnage too. Judges too

No they have always been comically stupid, the advent of cell phone videos is just documenting their stupid lying asses.
The real issue here is this women would still be locked up if the POS cops had gotten the right phone in their hands. This "public servent" should have been terminated immediatly but alas he will still have a job and will be compensated for this "difficulties".

What kind of psycho came up with this training plan?

Damn, why am I cursed with this power to always be able to analyze both sides of any situation.
Cop pulls gun on dog but doesn't immediately shoot the dog.
White trash chick whose family was probably harassing the neighbors (reason for cops being there) comes out to "save the dog" but instead of moving to put the dog up, decides it's a better idea to aggressively approach the cop and get in his face while he has a weapon drawn.
I can't really empathize with white trash, sorry.
I do have a major problem with confiscating the phones in the house if that actually occurred. I need to better understand how that was legally pulled off?

Pretty much just trash in general.

That's what I was wondering.

Nailed it, for the most part.
Me too.
Most likely, it was not legally pulled off. Can you seize video footage for evidentiary purposes? Yes. Was that the purpose in this case? I tend to doubt it.
