In the latest anti-government outrage which no one has been able to conclusively prove is not somehow associated with the Tea Party Movement, there has been a brutal attack on a police car.
A pit bull mix in Tennessee has been sentenced to obedience training after his dogged attack on a local police car.
Winston didn’t bite anybody, but he mauled a Chattanooga police car in what might have been a confused attempt to take a bite out of crime. The persistent pooch managed to tear off a section of the front bumper and damage the tires.
The Chattanooga Times Free Press reports that a judge ruled that Winston had been a very bad dog. He was sentenced to obedience and canine good citizen classes, and he’ll have to wear a tag that says he is “potentially dangerous.”
Charges against his owner will be dismissed if the classes are completed successfully.
Owner Nancy Emerling said Winston got out of a fenced-in area at a welding shop March 14.
For the record, Coco has never shown aggressive behavior towards police cars. She believes in speaking softly (at least as softly as she can) while carrying a big stick!
But she does not like shredders.
Or maybe I should say that she’s just interested in protecting innocent documents from a cruel and violent fate.
And while Coco is hardly a pacifist, she does frown on the uncontrolled proliferation of violent military technology, and on one occasion she took preemptive unilateral action against what she thought were buried weapons of mass destruction.
So I worry that she might be impressionable. Plus, she has been known to look at this blog!
So, Coco, if you’re reading this, please remember that not only are you a pit bull, but you are owned by a Tea Party sympathizer! That’s two counts against you.
Remember to be nice. You’re an ambassador whether you like it or not!

Wow. That last picture was taken in the Villanova house, so there’s now documented proof that Coco’s seditious tendencies are of long standing. She’d better watch her back!
Coco is a beautiful dog but I think she won’t be protected by the animal rights people (that whole dangerous pit bull thing plus she is obviously a dangerous reactionary imperialist running dog) and thus will end up in the camps with us. I would be glad to allow her to lick out my gruel bowl.
Hell it saves me washin’ the damn thing before inspection.
What an adorable dog!
We should thank her for performing the useful service of showing us how flimsily cars are being made these days.
That car’s bumper was good for nothing other than serving as a chew toy, anyway! Get a REAL car!
Please be careful re coco and the shredder. There are tales (bad pun?) of dogs losing their tongues, and having to be put down, due to getting their tongue caught in the shredder. Keep that thing unplugged when not using it, if coco is allowed free run of it’s immediate ares.
F’n LOVED the video!
