That definitely looked uncalled for; he wasn't even making a move, he was just standing there... a little too close, perhaps.
*note to self* When standing in front of agitated cops in riot gear, stay out of reach of big metal shields.
He doesn't look to be dead, but he will feel that in the morning, I can assure you.

Also here is another video by the same people. It doesn't have sound either. Just look at how vicious these dogs they train are. Look how just by the slightest movement the dog attacks.

Ouch...that had to hurt. I'll take my chances with the guns.

There are lots of dogs that will bite if a stranger gets in their face like that, police training or no.
Moral of the story: It behooves you not to put your face within biting range of a large German Shepherd that you do not know on a "personal" level.
Kind of a no-brainer.

After watching the video I started thinking about how it would be like having the police do that in our country.

The New Orleans Police Department has been rocked by successive scandals during the past several years: an officer was convicted in April 1996 of hiring a hit man to kill a woman who had lodged a brutality complaint against him and another officer was convicted in September 1995 for robbing a Vietnamese restaurant and shooting, execution style, a brother and sister who worked there, as well as an off-duty officer from her precinct working as security at the restaurant. In addition, at least fifty of the 1,400-member force have been arrested for felonies including homicide, rape, and robberies since 1993.1 As astutely noted by police abuse expert Prof. James Fyfe, some cities' police departments have reputations for being brutal, like Los Angeles, or corrupt, like New York, and still others are considered incompetent. New Orleans has accomplished the rare feat of leading nationally in all categories.2
