Should the Police Shut Down K-9 Units? 

Great story!

Working k9s are so underrated, they are so gentle with kids and know the difference between an active threat and an innocent bystander (with the proper training ofc, I know some police k9s aren’t held to a high standard of training and I definitely think that needs to change)

This is why K-9s are a valuable tool.

The problem with bark and hold is it gives time for people to shoot the dog. This is why many teams are against it.

Get that bullshit out of here 😂 idk why vice draws the most pathetic attention seekers

No

I’ve seen times where the dog has bitten the police

@@johnnypaul2084 I'd lol...

That is the dog handler's fault not the K-9. The dog handler decides who is friend and who is foe. Not the dog, the dog is not smart enough to know who is good or bad, only the K-9 handler. It proves the point that its human error, the dog will do whatever is commanded.

@@nobuh_ When they release the dog they cant stop it- they dont all have perfect recall, its a complete myth.

@@Greggah You obviously never worked with a dog. They do exactly as you say because you earned their ultimate trust.

This is what I don’t understand. He probably had a record and got spooked and ran. But what’s still unclear is why the dog was let loose. Gun recovery is not a good reason, especially if was not on his person at the time.

The punishment for running from a traffic stop shouldn't be having half your face mauled off.

So release the hounds? Are you insane? Just took the ticket? So the ticket is not a big deal? So then who cares if he runs away from a ticket if the ticket is not a big deal? Im sure there are real crimes cops need to be attending to

​@Emily Trembley That's what I was thinking. If the gun is the threat in their minds and it's in the dang car and not on the suspect, then there doesn't seem to be a reason to involve the dog. Those cops WANTED to sick the dog on him.

@@nurssey if they didn’t search him or pay him down, they might have thought he could have another firearm on him.

Exactly? Like if you run and hide best believe the k-9 is coming out and they warn you multiple times to come out or else the dog will bite you.

Underrated comment

of coarse the criminal who ran from the police is going to say he had his hands up and was not resisting as he hid in a bush were no one could see...and say the police should not have dogs...hell he probably thinks they should not have guns tazers cuffs...hell he probably thinks they should have to catch him with a butterfly net or pillows...

To be fair I agree with what the guy said… dogs are just another tool for a police officer to use it’s up to the officer to use them appropriately.

Dogs have been used to protect humans for as long as we have coexisted.. it is why we have alot of breeds we have today. It had a purpose then and it has a purpose today. What happened to that guys eye is horrible, no question. But the arguments being made here are nonsensical if you look at why dogs are used for protection. Should this same logic be applied to livestock guardians? Police dogs are a form of protection dog, trained to be aggressive with certain suspects just like police are..it makes sense and saves human lives. A belt has been used as a tool of abuse as well, does that mean we shouldn't make belts anymore?

Thank you!!! Someone finally said it

No

It’s called dark humor, and it’s unfortunately normal. From Law enforcement, to medical personnel to those in the military, etc. the vast amounts of horrific things you endure in those jobs causes you to be that way. Maybe if people would change their behavior like simply obeying simple rules then maybe less people would get into trouble and get hurt and or killed.

@@JohnSmith-pn2vl Yea, I live in Toronto Canada - we have a bit of gun violence but nothing like it is in the States. Those guys are insane. They are just wiping themselves off the planet. They need to make it harder for people to get guns. And the argument that guns will protect them is ridiculous. With that logic everyone will have a gun and everyone will be shooting - therefore more gun violence. Look at Singapore, Japan, China, and South Korea - 0.01 to 0.02 per 100,000 people. You think people are shooting up schools there? I mean their goverment is kinda fucked up but for gun violence stats it goes to show how much it works when people just can't buy guns.

Guns are inanimate objects. Dogs can decide to attack and even kill people with no human intervention necessary. They aren't remotely comparable.

So the gun should be banished forever since it was the gun that killed the person and the human being who used the gun should walk freely right? Got it. 👍

Or when their handlers abuse the dogs. I've seen that first hand.

Or if you don't think that's abuse lmk and I won't waste my time.

It's de-escalation indeed. The problem is you dont know ghe definition, because you dont understand use of force law.

@@handled99 do educate me then. If a cop points their gun at you to get you to comply, is that a "de-escalation"?

@@HopeF749 My job isn't to educate you. YOUR job is to NOT speak on topics you know nothing about. Why are you talking if you are confused? Yes that is de escalation, it can be. Its using a lower level of force, when a higher level of force can be justified. So if pointing a gun at you can get you to comply, instead of beating you with a baton, then yes, pointing the gun is de escalation.

@@handled99 lmao no. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/De-escalation#Police_and_corrections De-escalation means REDUCING the tension in a situation. Adding steps into the use of force ladder is not the same thing.

He's right. The dog's presence can often times prevent situations from escalating because the suspect doesn't want to get bit so they comply vs fighting. The visceral reaction of fear due to the K9 is much more powerful than knowing the cop has a gun, often times. The issue is the handlers using the dogs responsibly and maintaining their training- which is unfortunately up to each department to regulate internally. I say this as a civillian K9 handler. Give working dog radio a listen if you want more information on how these dogs are actually used.

Thank you finally some one understand the situation if he would have never left then he wouldn’t get hurt!! People right away want to criticize cops ok the department but no one take about what cops have to go through on a daily basis I don’t see any one protesting telling people that they have to respect cops to get respect back.

personally I don't think he should loose half of his eyesight for possession of marijuana

@@samc6194 he wouldnt have if he didnt run

@@samc6194 that’s true but he didn’t loose it because of possession he lost it because he ran from the police. The problem we’re facing is that’s the public doesn’t respect cops because of certain events that have happened and cops are on super alert and might act more intense because there scared some one might try to hurt them. For example about 2 weeks ago I got pulled over and the officer said it was because I didn’t move to the other lane while they had had another car stopped he was a lil nasty so I waited for him to finish and then I explained to him that he saw me yield when I passed them and I ah knowledge that they were there and he had no reason to get nasty and that was it we both understood each other. I think that’s what we as the public need to do record and show them respect And if we feel that we were mistreated for any reason file a complaint and if nothing is done then yes we should protest peacefully but if we don’t respect them they won’t respect us! !!show respect to get respect!!!

Or he would have been mauled anyway despite not resisting.

You have to think positive. Think of it as a doggie kiss 😁

Don't do the crime

Better than getting shot and killed tbh

@@mr.b3168 Quite honestly, the only crime mentioned is weed. I think they need to get away from criminalizing weed, since everybody uses it (except me).

If person not committing crimes and running & resisting usually no problems.

I think they are an extremely valuable tool as rescue and explosives dogs but for drug K-9s it seems like the cops just signal whatever they want. I had a dog "alert" on my car here in NJ and they tore apart my car only to find nothing. So clearly something fishy was going on.

Anyone who knows anything about police knows that K-9s are 100% unnecessary.

@@alexanderorr2528 I think searches initiated by dog hits should be evaluated. If the results of that evaluation show that dog initiated searches are mostly false positives, then their use should be monitored or restricted. The only problem I can think of when saying that is false positives could result from prior drug use in the vehicle. For example, a pot smoker who smoked pot in his car last night, but wasn’t transporting any during the time of the stop.

​@@alexanderorr2528 What @Andrew said. Dog's sense of smell is literally thousands of times more sensitive than humans. They can even smell bodies under water. So if it wasn't you then someone you had in your car triggered the dog. You CAN request a second dog to scan the car. You can tell the officer that you think the dog is wrong and you would like a 2nd dog to check because you are 1,000% sure there is nothing in the car or on your person.

that's youtube for ya, blanket banning one side of the poltical spectrum.

I don't understand? do you value a dogs life the same as a humans or more than. Dogs don't act alone when serving they are taught, improper conduct lies with the officer.

There's many uses for K9's that exist outside of catching criminals for police, just because your IQ can't see that a vice video is biased in its own right depending on who they interview and the questions they ask.

@@FierceZs1 What a stupid thing to say, I mean are you even old enough to have a RU-vid account? 😂😂🤣 That’s like saying “Oh yea dogs can hunt incase you didn’t know” 💀

​@@FierceZs1 That's the point right there. You're saying, 'uses for k9s'. They are animals, they are sentient beings with their own emotions. They're not our slaves to do with as we please. And before commenting on people's 'IQs' I suggest you take a look at your use of punctuation and grammar. If you want to get into the ethics and morality of it all then feel free but anyone with half a braincell can see you don't have much going on up there. When you remove yourself from your mother's breast and grow up a bit perhaps you'll work on attacking the argument itself rather than straw-manning it and trying to correlate things that don't matter.

D0gs shouldn't exist, at all, on Earth.

What do you expect these are the same people that want to defund the police.

That's what I said

Tht is the damn truth lol but nobody is teaching their kid to behave and respect authority. It's all "act a fool until ur free"

I agree. They train these dogs to be weapons of destruction and that's what they're going to do. They are animals, so if that's a good idea I just don't know. They seem to be very inaccurate when it comes to free air sniffs which allows a violation of our right to deny a search :(

Combat police dogs should not be used. Sniffing for bombs is one thing, training an animal to attack and hurt people is completely different. There are still many abusive training methods used on K9 units, and these dogs are put in danger. Let the humans who CHOSE to be in danger take care of it. Using a dog is cowardly and cruel. They will get just as much enjoyment doing any other job, and there is no reason to be training animals for violence. If you genuinely do care about the well-being of these dogs, you would not support it. But no, these dogs are to you what they are to the police department. Tools. Human aids. Not deserving of rights unless they serve YOU a purpose. Dogs are dogs first, companions second. They have just as much jurisdiction as you or I to be here. If you value their usefulness for us before their comfort and happiness I don't know what to say man, you are part of the issue.

The crime doesn't fit the punishment. All you are implying, is that all Black people, have no rights. If we make a mistake, that puts us in contact with the cops, we no longer have any human rights. Again.. You ARE implying that Black people are NOT innocent, until proven guilty. However, you are also implying, that I have no right to a public trial, by an impartial jury of my peers, or even a judge. The police have collectively decided, that THEY will enforce, “The Speedy Trial Clause of the Sixth Amendment” They believe, that this will allow them to be the judge, jury and executioner, when they interact with the public. They feel like this is the loop hole, and you only reinforce that belief, when you make statements like this. The worse part? The whites seem to have no self-preservation, and act as though that are not affected by this too! Whenever Black people talk about police violence, the whites yell at us, “It happens to everyone not just the blacks”, and, “Why don’t you talk about black on black crime.” They also love to yell out, “Why don’t you talk about police crime, when it happens to white people!” But we do. Yet the only comments I will then see from the whites, are basically saying we’re being disrespectful of the hard work the cops do 🤢 When all we are doing, is complaining about police violence against us ALL. 🤮 But if at that moment, we happen to only be talking about how policing affects Black folks? Well, then we are race baiting. So I have a question for the whites. Why are the higher-caste whites, so silent about state violence, on poor white folks? Why are there not more whites worried about the drugs in their neighborhoods. Or why are they only worried about drugs in their neighborhoods, now? Also, why do whites insist on focusing on marijuana? Why are the whites not demanding free mental healthcare for their youth? You know, so that they’re not unaliving themselves, or taking their guns into schools and businesses and shooting up everyone. Or terrorizing their own family! Why do Black people have to keep telling the whites, that this is not normal?! Why are the whites so willing to get so little from their government, while paying for it with their lives? Is it just to hurt Black people, the people apart of the LGBTQI+ community, or anyone whose views oppose theirs? Someone please explain this to me? The whites need to sit with that, unpack it, and hopefully grow. But I suppose most whites would call that being “woke”, or “forced learning of CRT”. Yes keep willfully ignoring the generational trauma, that the whites inflict on their own kids. “The blacks running from the dogs are the TEAL problem, plaguing America.” 🙄 They are destroying their own community from within, and at this point I’m like, if they die, they die 🤷🏾‍♀️ The last question is for my fellow Black people. Why do we keep advocating for the freedom, of a group of people, who has lost the last little bit, of their remaining common sense? They do not want our help. Some us still need to learn, that No means No. 🤷🏾‍♀️

In this topic, you have to remove whatever biases you have towards either side and just think logically. Sometimes it’s better to listen to understand than to listen just to deflect and be combative due to your own personal biases Resisting is it’s own topic itself. There are thousands of police body cams, dash cams, video surveillances across the internet that show people be beaten,shot, and bitten by police dogs for NOT resisting. Hypothetically speaking, if there were to be a NON VIOLENT drug dealer/user or non violent criminal in general who was trying to resist and flee does that warrant being mauled by a dog? Does that warrant being shot? There are different protocols depending on what crime the person did and how they behave afterwards. If you have a robber or mass shooter who just committed murder and they resist and run, they are an immediate threat and should be shot down by police. These every day scenarios always consist of policeman sicking dogs on people who have drugs stashed in their property. What’s the point of having a judge and courts if we will just allow law enforcement to make their own judgments and punishments based on their biases?

Lol good luck. Once they get the attack command, They won't stop until physically dragged off.

I think you forget this is a LIVING BREATHING ANIMAL. It's not a machine and should not be expected to act like one

@@cicolas_nage and right there is the issue you can’t reason with the dog can’t park in with the dog you can’t surrender to a dog, so it should not be used as a weapon.

It’s the textbook definition of inhumane.

So they should be used for those sorts of purposes only and not used as attacking weapons.

Dogs should not be used as weapons…

If you get bite, that’s your problem not mine.

This is something that police in America have fought against, for decades. They WILL NOT be held accountable for their actions, that's what "qualified immunity" means.

No dumbass you shouldn't have oh but I'm guessing you have prior and being caught smoking a blunt with your home fries at the basket ball courts is usually not OK! You said 20 states and not all of them. If you don't like that move to a state that it is legal. Or come to Canada where it's legal federal

Because that's true , he shouldn't have run , running only makes it worse for you . It doesn't matter if it's legal in other parts of the country , if it's illegal there , it's illegal , you can't run and say " it's legal in x states tho "

as stated in the video the dog was brought out because of the firearm found in the vehicle as well. meaning they don't know if he is still armed with another firearm and with a dog he/she has a better sense of smell at night in the darkness and can locate the person of interest that is hiding. Unfortunately, the dog can be replaced not human life. normally there is a policy that needs to be followed before a dog is even considered to be brought out. each agency may or may not have that in place or the criteria may be different. I recommend going on a ride-along at night with your local agency to see firsthand what they go through. this was a good video but as they show the total dog bite and race of the person bitten my question is what was when they shared it what was the ethnicity primarily in that area? so what's next if the K9 is removed as a tool do they take away the less lethal weapons next then the guns?

Yeah clown, if it wasn't a big deal then why run?

Typical liberal. Agrees with whatever the media shoves in their face.

I definitely think they should be held to higher standard of training. I’ve seen personal protection dogs be held to higher standard than police dogs and be even more successful both off and on the leash. My own service dog behaves better than most police canines and he wasn’t even trained by a professional trained (i owner trained him myself) it seems as though police canines are trained to bite more than they’re trained in basic obedience and releasing

@@JasperTheServiceDemon I agree, there are some departments that do need better training for both handlers and dogs, however, most dogs don’t out because they’re in drive. training for the PD is a world of difference from PPD’s because an insane amount of pressure is put on the dogs. It’s a higher stress environment, meaning PPD’s wouldn’t typically have to deal with sirens, lights, multiple officers screaming at the same time, the suspect beating the dog in every way possible to get away, etc. most suspects in a civil situation are more willing to avoid or be still in an effort to have the dog recalled so they can run before police arrive, as opposed to having officers on scene and immediately being taken into custody. In most civilian situations, the environmental and physical stimuli would typically be lower, therefore, not requiring the dog to punch in and stay on the bite as hard or long. If you train an out too much, it can make the dog anticipate the out, which can lead to issues with both officer and assailant safety since there’s a risk that the dog could out before the suspect is actually subdued. That could end up meaning a use of deadly force. Additionally, if the dog doesn’t maintain the drive, it could get lazy on bites, start to regrip, etc causing worse injuries than a single bite and hold. The dogs definitely do punch in on the bite, but when they get munchy, it’s like getting bitten over and over again which sucks worse than one bite and a choke off.

Seriously, this is laughable. Imagine people are actually defending running from the cops, "cause he was scared"

@Ben Jammin scared of being caught, held accountable & punished. Should've been scared before so he didn't breach the peace.

ong lmao

I'm not a criminal. Don't even have a traffic ticket on my record and yes there's lots of good people concerned about the animal abuse committed by law enforcement in the US every day.

They literally did. There are no rules in Gainesville.

Shows how the media can be so biased.

@@joshcornell7013 There might be no rules specifically for Gainesville but there is federal rules under Florida.
