Dan, keep fighting for what you believe in! You may not hear it all the time, but you have more people supporting you than you will ever realize!

Seriously people...if we get this riled up over a dog being beaten to death, don't you think it's time for a priority check? Just a thought.

I didn't get what I want so I'm gonna sue someone, and if that doesn't work then I'll sue someone else!

His upbringing is irrellevent...he made a choice to kill someone, and that is not a mark of a good kid!

You have shown your ignorance, because blocking a jail is not a peaceful protest. Way to take what he said and twist it.

He was dispatched to the area to take care of it. Do we so quickly forget that someone complained and called the police department?!? Why didn't the complainant call Animal Control? Maybe they don't have one up there...I don't know. There's nothing quite like reading articles that give bare facts so people can pass judgment. Cops are asked to do many crazy things and this is definitely one of them! If one kid was saved from being attacked, then wasn't it worth it?

They're implying that the use of the handgun was unnecessary because it was only a couple of bucks. Does this bother anyone else? Way to put a slant on another documented case of where a gun saved a law abiding citizen's life!

Way to go Arizona! About time something was done to help combat the problem down there! Certainly didn't get any help from the President with his lack of response to your Governor's15 letters.

Explain ACORN and how NO ONE else carried the story about the corrupt actions that were taking place! Thu, 29 Oct 2009 10:10:32 +0000 http://www.wsbt.com/news/national/65936177.html#IDComment41069788 http://www.wsbt.com/news/local/61220287.html#IDComment35954937 while the chance may be remote for someone to be killed, it still exists. and unfortunately, it would be a young child that would be targeted. so why even take that chance? coyotes are usually very hard to spot, and they normally go out of their way to avoid humans. yet, there has been how many sightings by people in broad daylight no less!?!?! that means one thing...their fear of humans is lessening, which opens the door for more confrontations. Fri, 25 Sep 2009 23:18:37 +0000 http://www.wsbt.com/news/local/61220287.html#IDComment35954937 http://www.wsbt.com/news/local/61220287.html#IDComment35810698 I cannot believe the volume of people that are against the removal of these coyotes. Do any of you hunt? I know for a fact that all hunters that I've talked to agree that the coyote population is out of control and something needs to be done about it. Like joewadly, I too am afraid that someone will have to be seriously hurt or killed before any kind of real action is taken. It's a shame when animals seem to be more important than humans...
