LA's a shithole. [/quote] And I'll bet you've never even been within 500 miles of there. I worked in Hollyweird in the film business for 14 years. I met a lot of good cops (who told stories of all the asswipe "young tough guy" cops) and I have to believe this story to be true. I love pits. I'm on my 4th Boxer now and most people think he's a pit because the way he's built, and he's all white. Now I work with dogs. The business I owned in Santa Barbara saw 450 to 600 dogs a month of every breed, size, temperament, and condition you can think of. Only ONE fight in ten years, between a German shepard and a Australian shepard. NEVER a pit. And it was because of the owner who left an aggressive dog with us and didn't warn us. (now the bad dog owner is a sports announcer here in Phoenix that everyone looks up to, I'd really enjoy running into him someday. [/quote] First of all I wasn't talking about the cops and second I was driving into LAX the day the shuttle was in the streets and use to live in Cali. [/quote] And I wasn't talking about "the shuttle". It's not a "shithole". You're right, there's crappy neighborhoods. Just like any and ALL other cities. I'm lucky to lived in one of the coolest areas, on the west side for most of my stay. People there would stop and help. (I also lived by echo park/silverlake, across the tracks from compton and two blocks from the Oakwood district) Cal's a huge place . If you didn't live in the city or go there regularly, you aren't an expert on the subject. Like I don;t like Phoenix, but I wouldn't call everyone here "shitbags" at all. I'm glad there's cops with integrity out there. It would be cool if it was starting to be a trend (doubt it though)... [/quote]

For hours a brown pit bull lay on a sidewalk while people walked by and ignored him, thinking he was dead. The pit bull had been hit by a car and no one stopped to help until three LAPD officers came along and saved his life.
On January 10th, police officers were headed to the police station when they spotted the dog crumpled up on the side of the road. The officers stopped and tried to give the dog water. That’s when residents informed the officers that the dog had been laying there for over five hours. The residents had assumed the dog had died after being hit by a car.
Police officers took the badly injured dog and placed him in their car. They then drove him to the vet where they were informed the dog had a badly broken leg and two fractured ribs, he needed emergency surgery. The vet also found that the dog had a microchip. The officers assumed his owners must be worried about him and so they went to the address listed on the dog’s microchip. The officers were surprised to find the owners didn’t care and didn’t want to have to deal with the dog’s vet bills. They told the officers to just “put him down.”
The officers could not bear to put the dog down though and were horrified saying, “Excuse me! Repeat that! No way! No how!” They had the owner sign the dog over to them. The dog, named Philly after the officers’ sergeant, was now the officers’ dog. They quickly called the vet and told them to proceed with Philly’s medical care. Philly needed surgery on his leg immediately, it was badly broken.
