No, it's letting bullies with badges get away with it.
tribesy, repeat it as much as you want, but NC law defines dangerous dogs, and it doesn't agree with you. I said dogs can't simply be shot in public places, and upon further searching at the animal law link, found nothing that went against that.
I did find:
and§ 67-3. Sheep-killing dogs to be killed
If any person owning or having any dog that kills sheep or other domestic animals, or that kills a human being, upon satisfactory evidence of the same being made before any judge of the district court in the county, and the owner duly notified thereof, shall refuse to kill it, and shall permit such dog to go at liberty, he shall be guilty of a Class 3 misdemeanor, and the dog may be killed by anyone if found going at large.
Amended by Laws 1973, c. 108, § 24; Laws 1977, c. 597; Laws 1993, c. 539, § 530; Laws 1994 (1st Ex. Sess.), c. 24, § 14(c), eff. March 26, 1994.
andWhen quarantine has been declared and dogs and cats continue to run uncontrolled in the area, any peace officer or Animal Control Officer shall have the right, after reasonable effort has been made to apprehend the animals, to destroy the uncontrolled dogs and cats and properly dispose of their bodies.
But none allow for wanton killing of uncontrolled dogs in public places. Considering these laws, I conclude it is very unlikely there is any such law for NC as you describe.(b) Any unmuzzled dog running at large upon any wildlife refuge, sanctuary, or management area, when unaccompanied by any person having such dog in charge, shall be seized and impounded by any wildlife protector, or other duly authorized agent or employee of the Wildlife Resources Commission.
So until you present some evidence, you are just making stuff up out of thin air.
Maybe you should specify that when you mention 'potentially dangerous dogs' just which legal definition of 'potentially dangerous dogs' you are referring to. Or are the misspelled words supposed to be the key?wrong legislation rabbit , completely irrelevant crap that has no bearing whatsoever on what I wrote
I provided a definition from NC law for 'potentially dangerous dogs'. You quickly managed to misinterpret it:
I notice you aren't even trying to defend that.Yes lets , you missed the part where the police turned up after being told there was a dangerous dog according to section c of that legislation Rabbit supplied .![]()
Or, more importantly, your foolhardy directive to just shoot strays.
