23. That poor dog.

Poor little guy. He looks like such a good boy.

This is one reason I absolutely HATE the police. They're incapable of using judgement and go into situations guns blazing not caring if they shoot the person who needs help or not. Or even if they're at the correct fucking address.

Fuck these assholes.
