Hmmm. All that outcry for a squirrel, yet I’ll bet these same people would happily shoot or bludgeon a snake to death Kill an unborn baby and call it a “life choice”.
Fixed it for ya 😉

Mesquite PD has a high incidence of hickory shampoo application to persons with whom they interact. One long-running joke is that they seek out wooded or covered areas so the news helicopters video less of it.
What, Mesquite hasn’t issued Rare Dark Earth Kevlar Lined Police Gloves to their Patrol Officers? They’re only $75 a pair. I’m sure that there’s Federale LEO Grant money that can pay for it. Also, they’re great for keeping Fingerprints off those guns you plant on Perps.
I’m OUTRAGED! Obviously there was a need for the HRT to perform a Dynamic Entry to rescue those kids from that vicious, man-eating appetizer.
I mean… I’ve never seen a squirrel, in a urban setting, ever approach a known food source. It was obviously a terrorist.
*facepalm*, If, dear teacher persons, you think an animal to be rabid, don’t let the chillins under your control near it. If you do fear it to be rabid AND you call in the PoPo, don’t act shocked if they respond with the least lethal means at their disposal to protect said chillins whom you haven’t corralled in a safe area.
Alternately, you could, you know, SHOW SOME DAMN COMMON SENSE and realize that squirrels see humans as food sources and will try whatever has worked in the past to get a treat. Please Google pigeon-guided missile for an example of the effect of positive reinforcement on critters.
He should have used the shotgun on the hairy tailed tree rats. Hate those little fuckers. Nothing like good old rat poison to prune back the population… Had some make a nest in my attic. Used the rat poison and the squirrels disappeared from my neighborhood for 6 months. Seems they were using the attic as a fucking stop and go…
Long time ago at college a squirrel at the campus tried to climb up my left. I didn’t know it was a tame squirrel that people fed (read about it later in the college paper.)
I just jumped a bit and the squirrel ran off.
Sure didn’t need to pepper spray it or club it or shoot it….
Let’s just say this cop was not real familiar with squirrels or other critters and leave it at that.
Pussification of the male race complete. Somebody, quick, call the mothers like my mom and recuit them. This shit will stop in a heartbeat. Can you say broom and a loud voice.
Shit, cops are undeserving of respect now-a-days. See Wisconsin protests.

Where I come from, they just call that seasoning.

Wasn’t his TAZER working?

And, does Gunmart eat Habaneros to build up resistance to pepper spray? Inquiring minds want to know! 🙂

It’s Mesquite. It’s pretty much an intelligent-solution free zone.
How screwed up is Mesquite? I ended up moving away because I couldn’t afford the constant trumped up traffic tickets.

90% chance someone or multiple someones were feeding the squirrel. Take that you dumbasses, you conditioned the behavior that got it peppersprayed!

it’s. an. effing. SQUIRREL.
“One parent questioned why the students weren’t simply moved away from the squirrel.”
yeah, because running away from a SQUIRREL is clearly the right way to go about it. wth is WRONG with these people…?

Crotaphallus:
I would beat that dang snake into a belt, and squeal like a girl while doing it!
Anything that lives on land and gets around without feet is satans spawn, and deserves to be treated as suck.
So sayeth the Lord!
