            Police kill thousands of our sweet pups every year and almost 
never face any consequences

                  According to the U.S. Department of Justice, COVID-19 
isn't the only epidemic ravaging our communities — another has been around 
for years, and it's the epidemic of police officers shooting innocent family 
dogs dead. Activists estimate that officers gun down our sweet companion 
animals at a rate of 500 dogs each day, and one every 98 minutes. And for 
the most part, these killer cops get away with it scot-free. This is what 
happened to Junior Gonzalez's family. Last month, in June 2020, Junior was 
working late at the laundromat he owns. A passing deputy saw him inside and 
automatically assumed Junior was burglarizing the property. Before even 
asking questions, he drew his weapon.

                  But Junior wasn't alone; his two loving pit bulls, Roxi 
and Luna, had been helping their dad at the laundromat that night. When the 
officer approached, Roxi barked and sat, waiting for pets. The cop responded 
by shooting this sweet, inquisitive girl in her jaw, chest, and leg. This is 
a symptom of a much larger problem: police assuming they can just shoot 
first and ask questions later. But shooting a pet animal at point-blank 
range should never be the solution to de-escalate a situation. Stop police 
from murdering our beloved companion animals! Sign the petition to tell all 
50 U.S. states to intervene by implementing harsher punishments for 
dog-killing cops, and reforming the way police approach interactions with 
animals.

                  Thank you for all that you do,

                         Miranda B.

                  P.S. They're shooting animals that are leashed or in their 
own homes, just because of a bark or a movement — and they're facing no 
punishments. Demand an end to this inhumanity now!
