An Arizona police officer told a citizen he didn’t need a warrant to enter his home, put a gun against his head, shot his dog, then shot and killed him. The 29 year old man was unarmed, his partner says he was never threatened, and the police are standing behind the murdering officer.
fuck the police
fuck the police
Chief Jack Harris says “it’s extremely unusual” for this sort of shit to happen. Liar. White cis men with weapons abusing power, disregarding the rule of law, invading people’s private spaces and violently assaulting anybody they please?

Especially now, when white supremacists are so bold in their escalation of reactionary racist legislation.
