  • Short dicked redneck hick cop

  • MIKE MINTON ONE TIME I THOUGH ,AN BOY YOU KNO DA OLE' SAYIN ART THOUGH HE FART .......BUT SHIT ON HIS DRAWS YOUR A ASSHOLE HEART'LESS FUCKER YOUR A PIECE OF WORK LIE STEALIN CROUX

  • no good

  • Charges were dropped on these guys even though a grand jury indicted them...any ideas on how us an internet based community of what's right no matter, during or after hurricane, especially by those who obviously did WRONG! I am a dog owner, inbox me with ideas. We can at least remove the badge from their work shirts!

  • guess what- niggers don't give a fuck about dogs. They ain't gonna try to provide for their abandoned dog- shit- they don't even care about their relatives. Truth is ugly, to multiculturalists. Only white man has humanity. That Minton clown is a piece of crap too, if you ask me.

  • Trigger happy fucking rednecks. Sorry thats just the way I see it. Too many rednecks running around. Better shoot the rednecks before they hurt themselves. I buying any of that bullshit " they will try to eat people" what a crock of dumb ass logic. This guy will be the first fucker to start cannibalizing people when the world goes to shit. God forbid...

  • Mbeard, I can't see that you have moved on from the events if you are watching videos and commenting on them.  I don't care if you are Mike Minton's MOTHER, he did wrong and wasn't held accountable. Holding a person accountable for doing wrong to animals doesn't mean that I am not holding them accountable for doing drugs or hurting people. They are not mutually exclusive. A person can have compassion for animals and also for people. So please, if that faulty logic is the best you can give...

  • I did not like the video because of the truth... I always thought that the animals were saved by rescuers and I have tears of anger now! Humans consider animals even more less than things... When this was all about children who were lost, searching for their parents...they were not shot, I am sure!

  • rot in hell you sorry son of a bitch minton...you pussy

  • poor animals. the human race sucks most of the time. how could you hang around until it was to late. my animal would have left with me. there was thousands of cowsand farm animals drowned all throught out south louisiana miss. tx.

  • Yeah they are just going to slap their wrists.

  • I hope they get the max!

  • I am from St.Bernard Parish. My family and I stayed for Katrina. When we were rescued from the roof we were forced to leave our animals in the attic of a stranger with there wolf hybrid. And we were never brought back to get them. We were shipped away... And never to see them again 5 years later still no sign. This video makes me sick and makes me never want to go back to this dreadful place.

  • where do these pieces of shit live someone pls send me their addresses .PLEASE

  • I have a CCW permit. If I ever saw a St. Bernard pig in trouble, I'm not sure if I would help him. Not just for this but for many reasons.

  • I live in St. Bernard Parish and I'm here to tell you that the St. Bernard Sheriff's Department is the most disgusting embarassment to law enforcement this state has ever seen. Do you remember all those cliched "Yokel cops out of control." movies of the 70's and 80's? No cliche, I'm afraid.

  • These scumbags revel in arresting any one who violates their imaginary sundown curfew, throwing people in jail for preposterous reasons. They seek easy revenue instead of justice against real criminals. In all honesty, all the law abiding citizens I know fear the cops more than the criminals. Believe it or not, they're actually (And I never thought I'd say this...) worse than the NOPD. Imagine that.

  • gfhghghghghghghghghghgh

  • Dude fuck that guy!

    If I saw him alone and abandoned fighting for food I guess I should do him a service and shoot him in the gut or the leg and let him get eaten alive by maggots.

    God, yeah, just go ASSUMING they're better off shot, don't consult anyone first who might know something about the situation. There were people starving to death and scrounging for food in New Orleans so I guess according to this guy they should have all just been shot too.

    Douche..

  • This is why I hate, hate, HATE the police. They are nothing but serial killers who are given the right to kill whomever they choose.

  • i hate this. this people..arent even PEOPLE. i hate em. i have nothing else to say. i just wanna go up to one of them and shoot them. if everyone was judged on how they treated animals, then theyd be in the deepest pits of hell. one last thing: I FUCKING HATE YOU SICK DEMONIC BASTARDS. FUCK YOU.

  • Burn in hell Minton

  • Fucking piece of shit bastards

  • Sick bastards!

  • "A St. Bernard Parish sheriffs deputy and a former deputy are set to stand trial separately early next year... Clifford Chip Englande, a sergeant assigned to administrative duties, and Michael Minton, who is no longer working for the Sheriffs Office, pleaded innocent... As it stands now, Minton will be tried Jan. 29 by a jury in state District Judge Robert Buckleys courtroom and Englande will be tried Feb. 14 by the judge...

  • @Gemmavideo I know Mike Minton personally, he has never had problems with animals... I too am an ex deputy from Orleans Parish and when its 'Survival of the fittest', or just total chaos, you can bet animals are last on list to save... Don't get me wrong, I love dogs, but to try to bring charges against people that are probably doing the animals a favor in those times, thats crazy.. You all need to focus on the police that that are killin PEOPLE and dealing drugs. Damn, shake it off, move on

  • @mbeard007 thats a crock full of redneck shit buddy...

  • @mbeard007 I'm also a ex deputy from St. Bernard Parish and know Mike Minton, he was a douchebag no matter what, I was there during this whole situation watching him do this shit to these animals, doing them a favor? Bullshit, that'd be like saying oh look, there's children running around without parents, better put them down since they can't take care of themselves. Bull, I watched this asshole round up animals and put them in a locked cage and stand there as the water rose, them drowning.

  • @TheRivencleft He was a crooked asshole before Katrina, he was a crooked asshole during Katrina, and I'm sure he's still a piece of shit.

  • What they did was unacceptable. These were people's pets and FAMILY MEMBERS, not rabid animals, that low life uneducated piece of shit had no right to shoot someone elses dogs, and think it was ok. They can burn in hell God will punish them.

  • @Gemmavideo God is good!

  • I don't object to humanely putting an animal down but that's not what happened here

  • 'as you do unto the least of mine, you have done unto me also' Matthew 25:31-46

    'you can judge a society on the way it treats it's animals' - Ghandi

    Sgt Minton and those like him should have a special place in hell.

  • America is finished...

  • sgt person should go to hell!

  • And Vick went jail because.........? Oh yeah, because he's not a cop.

  • A desperately sad event. One feels ashamed of the human race sometimes.

    Awful to read some of the (only a few thank goodness) very ignorant comments on here too.

  • What a sadistic bastard, it is not to benefit them, how about you feel how a gun shot feels?

  • The thing they don't tell you is no one was allowed to evacuate a pet to a shelter.

    They put people on buses and took pets away from them at gun point.

    Threatened people with arrest or worse if you didn't turn your dog loose.

    Many small pets and big pets were shot and killed or died from exposure or starvation.

    None Of these azzholes ever faced criminal charges for their behavior.

    Don't trust the police they are lying thieving cowards with a gun and a badge.

    These guys are scumbags.

  • Mike44, I KNOW they are pieces of lower class trash...the reason they feel safe enough to commit these atrocities is because they are never punished. And, the judicial system wonders why people have been relegated to vigilanteism. You practically do have to take matters in to your own hands for justice...especially when it is a cop. Evansville, IN policeman shot an elderly, blind, deaf weiner dog on a short chain, and NOTHING was done. The bastard was angry at the home's inhabitants.

  • I have a second generation Katrina dog, no doubt a feral dog. It's disgusting how some people treat animals.

  • More testosterone deficient american males in action!

  • Sad. May they rest in peace. If a situation requires me to leave my home, my pets come with me or I stay.

  • WTF is a ceature? Your spelling and grammar shows as much ignorance as your comment.

  • funny, I have seen human beings do the same, and in most cases, worse.

  • Hmph, Bet you're one of the officers. God, how evil, how cruel! This IS Police Brutality at it's worst! Geez, would it be so hard to let the people take their animals? Oh, I forgot. That would cost money, from the goverment. Good-Bye sweet aniamls, and as for the officers, " May god have some mercy on your sole, otherwise you got a ticket to hell."

  • thank you for those who really tried to help these animals, and may God reserve a special place.... HELL for those who shot them. At least, they could have had the RESPECT of making sure they did not suffer when they died!!! He claims it's so that they don't suffer! what the F**** shooting a dog and missing it then leaving it for dead??? not what I call the best for an animal! Just sick

  • This is 100% the reason none of my family members returned to the parish! We took our pets with us, but those precious ones left behind did NOT deserve this! F-U my (once loved) parish! And my all involved burn in hell for all eternity!

  • Fucking SICK ASSHOLE!!! He think he is some hero by shooting harmless animals! They all have the right to live and love. Prison is too good for a piece of shit like him!!!!!!

  • UPDATE:

    Trial date has been set for October 19th, 2009.

  • me and my dad knew Mike Minton

    Though he was a good guy.

    What an asshole.

  • cdub 71121 minton is not a sgt. no more he should be someone bitch in angola state prison

    doing hard time like picking up dead animals

    off the side the road for 50 yrs.

  • minton still around chalmette and he thinks he did the right think asshole chalmette cops

    sorry the good if they have good cops in chalmette suffer for the bad and boy do they have bad down there lets stone minton tie him to a pole at the park and lets all get some rocks and stone the fuckin asshole and the other dick heads with him

  • its gonna come back to that dude. HARD

  • karma is going to bite sgt. minton in the ass. what kinds of things go through that sick freak's head. I'm so pissed right now. He's going to burn in hell.

  • PLEASE tell me this man SGT MINTON was arrested by the ASPCA. Those dogs were displaced, their owners would be looking for them. If it was one of my dogs I would break your face in a hundred pieces. Their tails were wagging for God's sake!

  • Where ever you are Mike, you better be looking over your shoulder because hopefully someone will beat your head in-you retarted piece of shit. I hope you and your family burn in hell, you complete waste of oxygen. Someone should have shot you and fed the dogs with your rotting, low rent, unintelligent, stinking ass. Fucking Bugalise, white trash wannabe.

  • F*CKING A*HOLE! My best friend used to manage an apartment complex in Chalmette, & all I ever heard from her was what stipd a*sdoles worked at the police dept. I guess this proves it....

  • That Local Sheriff had the complete opposite attitude of the other Responders (ie, the NG, and the SP). He's most definitely a Hick.

  • Kill them b4 they kill us.....humans only

  • If people knew the dogs were being shot...why did noone do anything..dont always assume a cop is doing the right thing..u see something wrong goin on do something about it

    Yes they needed help but not by being shot..was every person who got lost/displaced shot aswell?

    Sadly its just man again taking power over innocent animals who were just doing the same as people there...trying to survive

    i hope the guys in question arnt still in their job

  • They had been evacuated.. some in handcuffs.. so yeah, lost/displaced fits as they were forced out.

  • Minton

    Rot in hell you stinking bastard

  • put bullets in cops not dogs

  • when i see them,ill kill them the way they did to the animals.

  • dude you are a sick fuck and so are all of the St. Bernard Parish super troopers...FUCK YA'LL

  • I'm surprised that nobody shot the people who were shooting the dogs. I certainly would have.

  • Minton,

    you'll get your's

  • Most cops are cowards and have tiny penises. So shooting dogs and bossing people around makes up for where they come up short.

  • fucking arsehole

  • What an asshole!! Somebody should dish him out some street justice!!

  • this video pisses me off!!! If it was my dogs which are obviously harmless cuz you see them being led by someone before they get shot i would kick that guys ass and shoot him and see how he likes it. Them dogs would have rather be running around prob eating scraps and shit havin a good ole time then being shot in the head for no reason. He should be prosecuted. That is bs. I wish the owners would see that shit so they can flip out on that asshole.

  • When we left my dogs came with me. I didn't care if I had to sleep in my car with them. If you have ever lived in St. Bernard you know how cruel the cops are.

  • Amen to that. The St. Bernard police force are nothing more than a glorified street gang. At least back then they were. I took my animals also when I left.

  • You're an idiot. Me and my brother are both on the St. Bernard police force. Don't let one man's mistakes represent all of us.

  • some one should kill that muther fucker i dont care that he is a cop his a god damn fucktard i hope his wife kid's get murderd

  • Apparently the criminal case is completely dead. But there is an update on Pasados' Safe Haven website about the civil case. A lawyer has been hired and certification for a class action lawsuit is proceeding.

  • Why didn't they just put the dogs in one house with some food and water until the true owners picked them up? This is totally insane.

  • Miss Boomer~thank you for bringing this to the public's attention. Any news on the civil cases?

  • a labrodor puppy killed cause he was agressive???? wtf it was a puppy they are not agressive

  • @kloteyoshi1 Don't get me wrong, I'm a gun owner. But htese fuckers just need a reason to get their guns out and pull the trigger. Just trigger happy rednecks.

  • maniacs they are shooting dogs cuase they are hungry the dogs just are confused cause they are left by there owner and dont now what to do

  • humane??? wat da?

  • I wonder how these people would feel and act if they were abandonded, scared, unable to speak, hungry, and more. They might bark and act seemingly aggressive out fo fear. What bast****s these men are. They should be punished severely!

  • Sararyanw...The reason everyone knows it was Minton and his buddies is that there were 2 eyewitnesses who could confirm the video and that he admitted to shooting dogs. Of course, no one is suggesting that whoever was in that white truck didn't also shoot dogs. A trial would have answered your questions--but clearly a lot of high powered people did NOT want this to go to trial and hear Minton's attorney again say that he was ordered to shoot the dogs...

  • sararyanw, Hellooooo, there were two eye witnesses to this haneious crime.  The same two people filming the video. Does that mean anything????

  • hearsay. their word against his.

  • This video did not drop from the heavens. David Leeson and his co-worker Tom Fox witnessed Minton shooting these animals, for gods sake they followed them down the road! What they were able to caputre on video is considered circumstantial evidence.

  • Minus the video, the fact that Leeson and Fox witnessed this act of extreme animal cruely, This alone should have been enough for this case to go to trial.

  • well of course it is circumstantial because it doesn't prove anything.

  • The things you say are so close to what the shooters would have said. Are you saying that you didn't see it with your own eyes so it isn't true? Who do you think shot the dogs if not the ones with the guns? And straighten me out if I am misunderstanding you, you want to line people up and point out which ones deserved to have their dogs shot?

  • like i said i didnt see the guns nor did you. you heard some sounds like me. Its about what their dogs were doing, do you know the full circumstances surrounding what happened. if so please enlighten us.

  • I was not personally there but you can hear the photographer talking about what is happening, you can hear the gunshots, you can see the dogs lying there bleeding in the less edited version. Go watch it again. Furthermore, eyewitesses have come forward to corroborate this.

  • Why do you think it is not about what the dogs are doing? For everyone I have talked to or emailed with it is about whether or not shooting dogs in the stomach or other parts then running over them is justified. And the conclusion is that it is not justified.

  • Humane?I don't think so!this is just an easy route out.This disgusts me.

  • SCUM BAG

  • how can americans say they aren't retards when they've got fuckwits like that cunt who claims it was better for the dogs.

  • where were they going to go? i know i wasn't rushing down there to "rescue" them just like the majority of you people. what about the people who abandoned these pets, shouldn't they get the lions share of the blame?

  • No, they don't get the lion's share of the blame for this guy shooting their pets for fun. People were wrong to leave their pets but that doesn't make it right to shoot them. There were many animal rescuers showing up to take animals out of the New Orleans area. There were many thousands of requests for rescues of pets left behind. People were sorry they left them and wanted them. People snuck in to rescue pets. There were many other options besides shooting them.

  • you know i never really saw anyone actually shoot anything in this video to be honest with you. i did see some dogs acting very aggressive towards the cameraman however. if there were many dogs acting like that around my family i wouldn't want them around either. and i am quite sure that not ALL of those people were forced to leave their dogs behind.

  • they were forced to leave their pets behind.

  • Yes, many people were forced to leave their pets behind. Some people had guns pulled on them and they were ordered to leave their pets. A woman with a teacup poodle was forced into a boat and her dog was left behind. A dog that would have fit into her handbag. Service dogs were left behind and disabled people bodily picked up and put into boats. What about people who were out of town and left their pets at kennels? Did they ask for their pets to die?

  • good point. but surely there could have been another way besides shooting them.

  • you make this sound so...romantic, or worst case scenario.

  • It would be so easy to remove your comments sararyanw but I think it is more instructive for the general public to see how weak the Minton side really is. The crooks in the legal side of things can throw out charges but they can't alter the basic truth of the situation.

  • "Milton side" your words not mine. once again i don't know the basic truth of the situation. do you?

  • I trust what the photographer said as well as the evidence of my eyes. I have seen the photos of little dogs shot. I saw the friendliness of the dogs in this video. I saw the dogs shot in the other video, shot. I saw this video the very day it was put out on the internet. Have you seen Miss Boomer's video response? There is a less edited version there, if you want to see a dog that has been shot.

  • i dont believe that the dogs were altogether friendly in this vid. they did get a little aggressive towards the cameraman did they not?

  • Define "a little agressive".

  • Minute 1:32 on the video is my definition of a little aggressive.

  • Aggressive??? Perhaps scared, hungry, disoriented as well. Clearly the black dog in the beginning of this video was not agressive. It was running along side of Leeson's vehicle. He was about to feed him. Have you seen the unedited version of this video? If not, take a look, listed to what Leeson is saying. Take a look at the second dog they shot on the sidewalk.

  • if you are speaking of the video you posted yes i watched it. i am sorry but i saw dead dogs on the street not the people who shot them. i saw men in a jeep shooting shotguns but didnt see them shoot anything or at anything for that matter. how do you know it was him and not the men in the white pickup truck? i dont know and you dont either you are making an assumption.

  • The little black one that barks at 1:23? You have got to be kidding!?!

  • Sararyanw, your reasoning is as flawed as Minton's was. Are you saying that you think it was the right thing to do? Because I don't think you are going to find many people here agreeing with you. There is nothing you can say that would make it right for these guys to ride around shooting pets in such an inhumane manner.

  • i am saying that i dont know. which means i am admitting that i am lacking information to make an unbiased decision as to what really happened. i have yet to take a side unlike you my friend. let us consider this for instance... you have children playing in your backyard and this pack of dogs shows up what do you do? personally i would try to get to my children and get them out of the situation but what if i can't????

  • There were no children playing there at that time. Yes, I have taken a side. I have enough evidence to make up my mind.

  • Gemmavideo says:

    "there is nothing you can say that would make it right for these guys to ride around shooting pets in such an inhumane manner"

    is there a humane manner in which to shoot pets?

  • I see now you must resort to picking my words apart, just as your defense of Minton rests soley on the fact that you can't see guns in the video.

  • you dont think that the fact that i dont see a gun is important?? come on you have to be smarter than that.

  • Take a look at the unedited version. You will see the gun being fired.

  • circumstantial evidence at best. sorry.

  • Hey, everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

  • My two cents, being closer to this case than I would imagine anyone posting on this thread... Sadly, for the moment Minton has beat the system. His wreckless behavior won't end with the street shootings in Louisiana. He will again cause harm to others, some other day, some other way.

  • Circumstantial Evidence = Any type of proof presented at a trial to support a position advocated by the presenting party, hence, Leeson's and Fox witnessing Minton shooting the dogs.

  • did you see a gun? hmmm. editing? i tend to give people the benefit of the doubt. instead of just judging people why dont we find out why this happened. what were the circumstances surrounding this act and if it actually happened the way it is presented here. so quick to jump to conclusions, do you believe everything you see on tv? people today are getting dumber but they are also getting more opinionated as we can see.

  • I also tend to give a Pulitzer Prize winning journalist more belief than I do this Minton. Minton says, on video, that he shot them. The question was whether or not he was justified. I can see that those dogs are wagging their tails and friendly which is supported by what the video shows and by what the photographer says.

  • milton seems to me like the type that would say anything to seem macho in front of his peers.

  • Gosh, you are so SMART! You know that you can find a word in a dictionary! Too bad you aren't smart enough to know how to prevent double posting.

  • sorry for the double posting i dont do this very often.

  • How about this one. HUMANE: hu·mane

    --adjective 1. characterized by tenderness, compassion, and sympathy for people and animals, esp. for the suffering or distressed: humane treatment of horses.

    2. of or pertaining to humanistic studies.

    So although the root of the word is HUMAN it is not restricted to descriptions of people but can also be used to describe treatment of animals.

  • Because this guy and his friend Chip shot dogs in the street, and because someone shot dogs and cats left at evacuation centers, more people will die. People caught in that situation next time will stay in their homes instead of trying to leave.

  • a lot of volunteers went to help rescue the dogs we got katrina dogs in florida my sister said some went to tennessee and a lot of other places even caesar the dog whisperer took in some

  • i would hope that this cruel bastard is attacked and put in a cage look what he is doing how can he say this is humane? i hope he gets what is deserved no wonder the people didnt want to leave their pets behind.

  • Go to the Dallas News dot com website for the original video. add this extension to the dallas news dot com to go directly there: s/dws/photography/2005/katrina­_video/straydogs.html

    If that is clear as mud, type in "katrina video stray dogs" in your search field and it should come up.

    I know it is hard to find and that was why I posted it here.

  • This video offered elsewhere on the internet by David Leeson, award-winning photojournalist for the Dallas Morning News, awards which include a Pulitzer for his work as an embedded reporter in Iraq.

    Mr. Leeson has a My Space page and if you search for Dallas Morning News you can find a biography.

    You can read what he had to say about charges being dropped at the Pasado's website.

  • PIGS,PIGS,PIGS,PIGS,PIGS,PIGS.­..If he did that in front of me, nfjioevnyt7q30uyv5n4tap him...

    We are seeing the end of mankind here...

    I feel I'm dying as I watch this...

  • This is awful! feed and water them, don't kill them!

  • These guys are f-cking pigs. I hope someone beats the crap out of them, then sends their pittbulls on them.

  • these loser animal killers were let off the hook today due to "lack of evidence". go figure!

  • This really pi**es me off... and they wonder why so many people stayed behind and died. there is no way that I would do that to my dog. Yes they are Just dogs but they are more than likely someone lost scared beloved pets.

  • Sgt. Minton forgot to mention that he has sex with small boys when he is not shooting helpless dogs.

  • Just another example of a worthless down south HICK MOTHER FUCKER, needing to feel powerful! It must make him a big man to do this.

    FUCK EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU THAT THINKS HE WAS IN THE RIGHT!

  • some people look for any reason to kill. I wonder which country truly has the most vile soldiers and cops

  • The two men who shot dogs in the street are suspected of shootings of pets that had to be left in evacuation centers, too. Puppies and poodles were shot in an inhumane way - through the stomach - so that it took a long time to die. Deputies were overheard saying as the people were evacuated, "When these people leave we will have target practice". The two men in this video, Mike Minton and Chip Englande, go on trial early next year for the street shootings.

  • If you want more information an animal sanctuary and rescue group, Pasado's Safe Haven, posts information on their website.

  • Lest you think the shooters were dealing only with dangerous animals, the bas*ard# moved cat carriers from the buildings out into the sun with no shelter so the cats died in a very bad way.

  • To Limpasta: These were NOT aggressive dogs--one of them killed by Minton et al is on film being petted by the photographer just before Minton decided to get his jollies shooting dogs. He and his whole gang in that truck are sadistic cowards. But maybe you were there and you know all that already---were you at the schools tying and torturing those dogs too? Tell us--be honest now--you like to watch this stuff, don't you.

  • I didn't see that part. (photographer trying to pet the one Minton shot) Did each dog killed during the storm deserve to be killed by someone who thought it necessary, who's to say? However, I'm quite sure two photographers down trying to make stories are in no place to use the limited footage to claim that SGT Minton and the others are no good cops. From this video there should be no charges filed, no indictment, nor a conviction. But then again, isn't this Charlie Foti pursuing this?

  • Actually, the raw footage was too graphic to put on even cable news. Please be sure to view it when the matter comes to trial--you will see the dog being petted and a lot more that will haunt you for a long time. And no one has ever said all the sheriff deputies were bad... But the men in that truck were not acting as deputies--they were acting as the sadistic cowards they all are. Makes you wonder if they had a hand in all the school shootings and the other street shootings, doesn't it?

  • If you weren't here during the storm, you wouldn't understand. There were dogs running up to you afraid, hungry and aggressive. I love animals, but if you weren't there or were there with a camera and not there to protect the people etc, shut the fuck up.

  • I WAS there and these idiots need to rot in the deepest, depths of hell for what they did to those poor, helpless animals. People left their animals at designated places TRUSTING the authorities to care for the animals - NOT SLAUGHTER them. They were told their pets would be fine.......

    People in St Bernard Parish lost EVERYTHING. The last thing the needed to hear upon returning home was that their BELOVED pets were cruely killed by some Jackass with a badge and a gun.

  • "And MAN shall have no advantage over the beast.....for the lot of man and of beast is on lot"

    Now, think about that and choke on it Sgt. Minton and his supporters!

  • I hope this motherf-cker losses his job, pays bigggg fines and rots in hell.

  • anderson cooper FROM CNN IS A SELLOUT!! Did you see his latest report about New Orleans? He didn't talk about the slow recovery & real issues. He talked about broken fema trailors being sold on auction websites,he didn't mention the school system or the slow recovery.

    These kids in New Orleans are getting messed over by our government officials and fake ass anderson cooper doesn't really care. He said he was "keeping them honest" but he's all talk.

  • For anyone not aware of the story, please read the ABC news report: abcnews.go. com/TheLaw/story?id=3265151&pa­ge=1 "Gemmavideo" thanks so much for posting this :(

  • motherfucker. I can't even watch this video, but I just saw the report about this on Nightline and I'm just enraged my God. AHhhhhhhhhhhh!

    And "deportmexico" you're a dickhead! Not only "dangerous" dogs were murdered but little loving family dogs one woman's poodle was found with a bullet in his head!

  • to say a dog cannot survive without its owner is very ignorant. if you look at info about the recent tsunamis and other natural disasters, the animals survive unbelievable better than the people. also a dog can survive weaks on relatively no food if it can find water. but i agree with shooting violent dogs, but only in self defence in the situation.

  • The cop in the video is Michael Minton. He and another deputy, Chip Englande, have been arrested, charged and will be on trial in November for needlessly shooting any animals they saw in Saint Bernard Parish.

    Some law enforcement went into a school that served as an evacuation center, a place where people were told to leave their pets, and they turned the animals loose and chased them down and shot them.

  • Ok well thats news to me. A lot of youtube cuts out necessary info.

  • I support the cop. I bet this video is made by a animal rights guy that probably would harm humans. I wouldn't shoot a pet but a violent stray dog means nothing to me.

  • This video was captured and posted on-line by David Leeson of the Dallas TX Morning News. David Leeson is a Pulitzer Prize winner for his coverage of the Iraq war as a photojournalist. I am not him.

    When Katrina hit Leeson covered the aftermath of the storm for the Dallas news. Google "David Leeson" and you will see.

  • To deportmexico...what a complete moron you are. Define a "violent stray dog" you dumbass. These were owned pets, orphaned by the storm. There were some feral dogs, but blame that on the Minton types who let this situation get out of control before Katrina. This dog means nothing to you because you are a self-centered arrogant, Bush loving ignoramus. All you know is how to satisfy your own mean and selfish desires....you prick.

  • this dog means nothing to you because you're a heartless piece of shit.

  • I can understand killing dangerous dogs that are threatening or attacking people, but it looks like this guy is just shooting dogs in the street. If that's the case I hope they prosecute this guy!

  • Peta needs to be informed about this video so they can do something about this guy. He is insane.  He should be locked up

  • sherlock, PETA Killed More than 90% of the Animals in its Care in 2007.. why would you want to inform them?

  • Why is the St. Bernard sheriff's department not following up on this horrible crime. May Mike Minton burn in hell.

  • OMG!!!!!! There are no words!!!

  • This man needs to experience the same as what he did to these animail, not prison!!!!!!! Jack Stephens why are you not doing anything about the actions of this Sheriff's Dept. employee?

  • mike miton is a fucking dickhead cop my family knows that asshole why dont we just shoot you mike

  • dickhead or not it sounds like you are threatening the cop

  • Watch the video again. Nobody is threatening the cop.
