There were other charges included in this extremely long sentence, but all the uproar in the general public was about the police dog being killed.
Now I care a great deal about how animals are treated, you can call me an animal lover, but it ticks me off that people seemed to be elevating the status of this dog because he was a police dog. Some of the same people who's blood runs cold over a human being dying from an illegal choke hold, something that never needed to happen, just flipped out to the point of emotional derangement over a police dog getting killed.
Well I say those officers probably had no freaking business setting that dog on the man in the first place.
If a police dog attacked me, I would take that bleeping dog out by any means necessary to protect myself. Moreover, in this case, the man sentenced clearly has a long history of mental illness. This man should have probably been institutionalized in a setting where he could receive the kind of management necessary for his illness, however, people in this society would rather use their tax money to pay for the confinement of someone like him in prison than to exercise prevention and pay for permanent specialized housing. When a parent says they were afraid of their child and locked bedroom doors when the child is living at home, I recognize those words as a hallmark of a severe mental illness context.
This man needs to be sent to a forensic hospital setting to serve this irrational sentence the judge doled out.
"Rangos said it is her policy to make sure she dispenses justice for each assualt victim. Rush will serve about 3 1⁄2 to 7 years for killing Rocco and 3 to 7 1⁄2 years each for stabbing Lerza and punching the other officers. The judge gave him 2/ 1⁄2 to 7 years for attempting to take an officer's gun"

If you have not noticed lately. We are not allowed to protect ourselves, against the corporate security guards. We must lay down and take it, even if it means our own death.
Did you know, oppressed Blacks, have their very own Chris Kyle. (3½ blocks away, with a small caliber handgun)
It is happening people.... The police state is quickly becoming the enemy of the free state.

What a crock of crap you spout about police ... what is the basIs
of your agenda . ... why do you hate police so much
Are you condoning violence against police ?
It's happening people . ... criminal and radical elements of our society enabled by liberal media and supported by soros money and race baiters are fomenting unrest and terror domestically
OP, you seem to be against the length of this violent criminal's sentencing. He earned every year that was doled out. Police dogs are considered officers and Rocco will be on Officer Down if he is not already listed. There seems to be nothing redeeming in the criminal's life, even his own mother was deathly afraid of him. You seem to want to dismiss it as mental illness but based on this article I am not so sure of that. For the sake of society he needs to be removed. Good riddance.
