No, but it might wake a few people up to what they're doing wrong and prevent future fvckups.

If that were true, everyone would be sueing each other 24/7, which we are already close to doing anyway in our society. Someone put Disney City Hall in charge, damit!!

And perhaps bring enough public pressure to bear on political forces to reform the abuse of no-knock warrants.

I didn't mean they shouldn't... just that the loss of a member of your family is huge, and not something that a few grand in a lawsuit is going to rectify. Even a few million, while more on par with the loss, is not ever going to make up for the fact that two innocent dogs, who did exactly what they ought to do, lost their lives.

Sorry, I can't get over the loss of an innocent dog. That bugs me more than a human getting shot - a human at least has a chance to make a judgement call on how to behave in the presence of a police officer. The dogs don't stand a chance. This kind of thing makes me cry inside.

By the way I read some more articles, and the mayor is now saying that the cops shot the second dog as it was RUNNING AWAY. Grrrr.
