It's worse. Even when I'm on the pro-cop side of the fence, I hate the legal concept that fighting a trained attack dog is automatically the same as attacking a cop. A dog is a beast, and it filters its handler's understanding of the law and acceptable use of force through a creature that possesses neither.
It's not an innocent animal when in police custody, it is a weapon.

If you were to stab the dog to make it stop, I bet the corrupt cops will use it as an excuse to shoot you.
People should be comming to these protests armed to fight these corrupt bastards.
