DOG VIGIL ATTENDEES URGED TO 'GET REAL'

I am getting just a little tired of listening to the continuing saga of the 
dog, Bear. There appears to be little doubt police made a tactical error 
and entered the wrong apartment. It is unfortunate this dog was shot.

I am sure their intentions were to accomplish what we entrust them to do.

They were no doubt satisfied themselves they were going to the correct 
location.

The owner of the dog and her lawyer want to perpetuate this incident by 
daily getting something in the paper or on TV.

Is the real plan here to get all the publicity possible before eventually 
launching a lawsuit?

With all that is going on in the world today, a candlelight vigil on the 
steps of the police station for a dog. Let's get real!
