    Why not become a farmer? You can abuse hundreds of animals every day and eventually kill them.

    Donkeys are such sweeties. I’ve never met one that hasn’t been a happy, friendly little critter.

    Mules are the ones you gotta worry about being total dickheads.

    When I first heard about HeeHaw, I legit teared up. Bonds with equines is something different than anything else. I’ve never been closer to any creature, both human and animal, than I have been with my horses. I can’t imagine how devastated HeeHaw’s family is…

    This cop deserves to be stripped of everything at the very least. He should go to prison, but I’d settle for him being fired and being unable to own a gun or be a cop ever again.

        This is just pure stupid. You go to someone’s farm, unannounced, I assume enter their pasture, and then get surprised when one of the animals comes up to you and start making noise? He’s lucky he didn’t catch a bullet for wandering into someone’s property unannounced.

        How about this, take his gun away, and I know a field that has a bull in rut that might have the “missing person” he was looking for, he can go right out in the middle and look around all he likes.

        that fucking cop should go straight to jail, charged with torturing an animal, charged with killing an animal, charged for trespassing, charged for destruction of property, then swiftly convicted and sentenced to a decade or more in prison without parole. and upon release never be allowed to own firearms again, never be allowed to work in law enforcement or private security or private investigation ever again, and be barred from working or living with animals.

        and that’s my nice, measured, restrained, internet friendly reply.

      I find the reverse to also be true.

      It is tempting, when an object needs percussive adjustment, to treat every tool as if it were a hammer.

    This isn’t like Harambe. The way to make Harambe equivalent would be if Harambe was killed because some cop wandered into his enclosure while looking for a missing person and managed to shoot him before Harambe ripped his arms off for trying to taze him.

        The social media post from the farm said the officer told HeeHaw’s owners that the donkey ran up to them braying, so “they thought they were in danger and shot and killed him after trying to taze him.”

        They really do find some of the most spineless creatures to become cops.

          Bro, donkeys are fucking brutal; they’ll stomp a mountain lion to death for fun. They’re often kept to protect herds.

          I grew up on a farm, and a donkey is one of the few farm animals that would actually instill fear in me if I was being charged. Even a bull wouldn’t worry me as much.

      Police shot a pet donkey in the USA, I think. The officer had gone on the pasture without permission, and when the donkey went curiously to check them out, they shot it.

        It gets worse

        The young donkey was bottle-raised, a domestic pet and part of the petting zoo who “never knew a stranger,” the Facebook post said.

        This is a donkey who loved people and thought he’d found a new friend.
