Funeral held for K-9 officer killed in west suburban shootout

Flags flew at half-staff at the Kane County Sheriff's Office as the department held a funeral for officer Hudson, killed in the line of duty in Geneva. FULL STORY: bit.ly/43Du2Oo

[@semyonbudyonny1895]

If a canine officer is killed, the perp should be charged as if he killed a human police officer.

[@thisisme3238]

Agree 💯

[@monclerjacket8814]

Show me the footage of that dog or any dog for that matter taking the oath and saying "I do"? I'll wait

[@Katstance]

Totally agree!!

Such a sad loss. Thank you for your service K9 Hudson.

[@sunrise-kx4ev]

It's sad because police dogs don't choose this line of work, it is chosen for them. Rest in peace, Hudson.

Bruh they are having funeral for an animal, that's sad and mentally ill

@@Someone-qi1rryou are an animal too, wether you think of yourself as one or not. And people will have a funeral for you. That would be even more preposterous given your morals.

[@Someone-qi1rr]

@@Chris.Morales, no. I am a human being. We are above animals. We possess intelligence and such. At least the majority of us do. What do you know about my morals anyway? Animals don't have conscience and they don't think. They can't talk, write or have manners. Also, they carry much diseases and are threat to humanity. More people get attacked by dogs than saved. It says something. Having funeral for any animal it's mental illness since they are just animals. I could care less if someone is having privately a tomb for their pet but this is ridiculous circus.

So heartbreaking😢😢 rest in peace, thank you for your life work hero god bless your loved ones ❤❤❤

[@thegreenberetlife0191]

These dogs are sacrificed by poor police SOP's many of them don't even have a vest. Why was the dog released on an armed suspect? This isn't what he was supposed to do (what a stupid statement), if the suspect is armed and won't drop the weapon, he gets what he gets. The police placed that armed suspects life above the dog's life. God bless Hudson!

RIP and now your watch has ended.

[@snowiecat456]

I wish we honoured our police dogs here in the UK like you do in the US. I know ours don't face the same risk of being shot as yours do but they do risk being stabbed and injured in the course of duty. I'm sure their handlers value them as much as yours but I've watched videos of US K9s receiving final messages of tribute on their last shift before retirement and full police funerals when they die after retiring. Well done US for honouring your K9s in this way❤

[@NotHere-hc2gw]

Why do you guys call a dog an officer?

[@colinmackay92]

Because he is. He's not just a dog.

[@NotHere-hc2gw]

@@colinmackay92 You’re using the noble title ‘officer’ in the same sentence as a dog. In my view, ‘dog’ is an insult which is why I objected. But you probably have a different view.

[@colinmackay92]

@NotHere-hc2gw dog is an insult when in reference to a human. We're talking about an actual dog here. It's no longer an insult. It's just a description lol.

This should be considered animal abuse, forcing dogs to do this stuff. They need better protection. Kevlar body suits would be nice.... poor puppy.

A dog??? All this for a dog?? Taxpayer money?? In a recession?? This country has gone absolutely nuts

[@denaleckbee8464]

No what is absolutely nuts is you complaining about an officer getting a proper burial. Whether canine or human, he helped get a dangerous criminal off of the streets! Maybe you should be thanking God one of your family wasn't in the area, because if the canine hadn't gone into action, someone in your family could have been harmed!
