Default RIP Bingo the police dog

RIP Bingo, who was shot and killed by a 44 year old man in Toronto last night. The man was already wanted for a second-degree murder charge.

There is an outpouring of support on twitter (X?).

I came here post thread title change, but I can only assume it just said "RIP Bingo" to begin with. Incredibly stupid.

Maybe deleting the thread in its entirety would save Tapatalk users a heart attack.

I'm glad to hear Bingo is still with us. Although... if he had passed maybe we'd be closer to removing the swear filter.

What capacity are police dogs used these days (aside from bomb sniffing)? If they're meant to sic on criminals, man that's appalling. Not for the criminal, but for the dog itself. At least police have firearms to protect themselves. For animals to be put in danger is, to me, outdated, when they clearly can't protect themselves.

They use them on unarmed surrendering suspects in the states
