If this was a CHL and the situation were the same sans the perceived threat of domestic violence would APD defend the action to dispatch a dog under similar circumstances or be charging with a crime? :headscratch i.e. barking dog approaching unrestrained? Let's say someone with a CHL is replying to an ad for the sale of an item and owner's dog comes at them.
Dunno, but short of actually lunging for my throat, there's not much that a dog that size could do to scare me into shooting that quickly.

I've never really understood the fear of a lone family dog. There was an English Mastiff I knew once that I thought might be able get the better of me if he'd tried, but he turned out to be a giant teddy bear.

Yeah, nothing's aired about it up here in Plano. I did learn a lot about a new tornado warning system though.

Really? Leash laws? There's a law that says that my dog has to be on a leash while we're playing frisbee in my own backyard? Do my dogs also have to be leashed while they're in my house? I've got an idea... and I know this is a bit crazy, but how about, before killing anyone or anything, the responding officer checks the address of the home he or she is about to invade?
