Let me start by saying I'm not in line with PETA. I also happen to have great respect and admiration for law enforcement anywhere. They put their life on the line every day they don a uniform and hit the streets to protect us. I also happen to think that dogs are the most wonderful creatures on this planet. Needless to say, this story angers me to no end.

Berwyn Heights Mayor Cheye Calvo had his home invaded last week by a Prince George County SWAT Team because the Mayor was being set up with drug possession charges - the police even acknowledge there was no wrongdoing on his part. That didn't stop them from bursting into his home, tying him and his family up for 2 hours, and shooting down both of his labrodor retrievers.
Berwyn Heights is an incorporated town within Prince George County. So where was the Town's police force? Normally municipalities will cooperate with each other in these type of investigations. Instead, these guys rush in with guns blazing.
Sadly enough, this isn't an isolated incident. These thugs shot and killed an innocent family's dog back in November of 2007 in this story.
The Calvo family has my most sincere condolences for the loss of their two dogs. I hope this travesty of justice does not go unpunished.
