COPS on Safari!
So, there was a cougar running around the city yesterday until cops gunned it down in Roscoe Village.
No tranq darts, no nets.
Just fucking gunned it down.
There's some woman defending police saying they didn't have time to get the animal control equipment over to where they cornered it and that it lunged at some of the cops. (But, according to her they were in the noeghborhood all day...seems to me they could have put together some kind of humane alternative plan).
So, have it boys, put on your pith helmets and murder it to death.
Awesome.
What's funny is they keep talking about the children in the neighborhood, but from all accounts, this was the most disorganized effort ever with MULTIPLE sprays of gunfire.
The witness states:
"They were firing at it."
Gunfire is ok, but oh my god! The cougar could EAT people. Oh, I see. This is 1412 and Cougars are the new black wolves. Let's grab our torches and pitch forks.
And I was going to post the photo the news can't stop showing us. The photo of the dead cat, but I'm opting for good taste.

This just makes me so sad.
When CPD shoot, they shoot twice, look, and then shoot twice again. Or at least they're supposed to.
So you're talking about a minimum of four rounds per person.
Why no animal control tranquilizer action? That's probably the last thing anyone in this city might have...who's seen a cougar around here before?
