Trouble in Fantasyland

I know that I promised a continuation of the “Jesus is angry” series, but I just saw this and it is not getting the press it deserves.

Here is what Pam Dewey, my beloved editor here at the prophecy podcast, said about this incident, after reading that the police claimed that the police dog “escaped from a police car” and dove into the crowd on its own before being “pulled back.”

“This is nuts. What kind of excuse do you make for a highly-trained police dog to just go off on a nut and attack civilians without "commands"?? If the dog is that volatile, why would he be in service?”

Indeed, why? Is it that such dogs cannot be trained as well as we have been led to believe? 

Pam and I have been on other forums and we both defended good policing. This incident in Anaheim is not good policing.

The dog was attacking a baby and a man got in the way and saved the baby's life. He is a real hero. 

I wonder if this kind of stupidity is actually the standard operating policy of some police departments, and it is only now that everyone carries a camera in their phone that we know about it?

Dont take babies to protests that are confronting the police. Very unwise.
