How would you feel if it was your pet?
This was a pet, not a cow destined for slaughter.
Hee-Haw looks to weigh around 50-70 lbs.
Since you asked…
I’d expect the donkey to be replaced. I would not expect headlines news around the globe nor bs on a firearms discussion forum about a pet donkey and ‘feelings’.
Language used like “baby” donkey (the term is foal) and “murder” (Legal term for unjustified killing of a human) is a screaming indicator of how… oh never mind.

Yup. It would not surprise me if the people seen here with ear-to-ear smiles and celebration are suffering depression over a murdered baby donkey. 
It’s kind of ironic how we treat animals here in the United States, while some are being pampered more than Human Babies, we are Destroying other wholesale or worse turning them over to Guys like Fauci for Medical “Testing.”
I would like to say I value Huiman Life everytime over Animal Life but, that’s simply not true. There are good Dogs and Horses I will never forget, but there are a lot more People I wished I had never met.

The people in that picture are demonic witches. They are probably cheering on Clancy for murdering her children.

Generally speaking, in the last century or so modern society has become removed from the reality of human existence since the dawn of man. The prior couple million years of human misery and helplessness is beyond comprehension for most.
Today, everything from food to life-saving medicines somehow magically appear at the grocery store and pharmacy when needed, with little thought as to what was required to get human existence from where it was to where it is today, or maintain same. The mere thought of it is abhorrent to much of modern society. I understand why folks feel the way they do, but I don’t subscribe to it.

There’s also the evolution of animal integration into human families.
See also Peanut the Squirrel and the pathetically overcompensating and murderqueer Nazi jackboots of NY who killed him and were actively looking for pretext for more.
If you’re such a Bitchy Little Girl that a 70lb baby donkey makes you piss your pretty pink panties in fear for your life, you have no business anywhere that puts the weight of others’ lives on your shoulders. You are OFF the Man Team, turn in your balls.
And I say this as someone who values human life over animal life, but frowns on non-sporting game killing without compelling reason like pest control, threat or euthanasia.

That a squirrel got so much social media attention is precisely my point. And to even remotely suggest that killing a squirrel translates into being a pathetically overcompensating and murderqueer Nazi jackboot… sigh.
Around here I dispatch tree rats (squirrels) with a suppressed .22. Keeping inside the home is beyond bizarre as far as I’m concerned, and being a social media star speaks to how fucked in the head modern society has become.

Eulogy of the Dog
23 September 1870
Warrensburg, Missouri
Gentlemen of the jury—
The best friend a man has in the world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son or daughter whom he has reared with loving care may prove ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith. The money that a man has he may lose. It flies from him perhaps when he needs it most. A man’s reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill-considered action. The people who are prone to fall on their knees to do us honor when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our heads. The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous, is the dog.
Gentlemen of the jury, a man’s dog stands by him in prosperity and in poverty, in health and in sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground when the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he can be near his master’s side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer, he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounter with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of his pauper master as if he were a prince.
When all other friends desert, he remains. When riches take wings and reputation falls to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey through the heavens. If fortune drives the master forth an outcast into the world, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him, to guard him against danger, to fight against his enemies. And when the last scene of all comes, and death takes his master in its embrace and his body is laid in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by his graveside will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws and his eyes sad but open, in alert watchfulness, faithful and true, even unto death.

My point, Phil, is that in the Peanut case the squirrel was pretext. We all have our choices in preferred animal companions, and so long as they aren’t dangerous to each their own. i don’t understand ferrets or potbelly pigs, but I’ll respect the choices of thso who do keep them and defend their rghts the same as I would want for mine.
New York DEC? Fuck those assholes in every orifice with hot blowtorches.
So far, that sentence is winning the contest for M4 quote of the week.

Just another thing;
If I was a Jack Booted Thug doing Jack Booted Thuggery and I wanted 100% of your Attention, Compliance and to assure I break your will, Well, Killing your Dog in front of you and your Family is one way to make that happen.
The reality is that there is no ‘right’. Nor does everyone have lawful choices to select any animal companion and keep it in any manner they wish. There are laws that regulate keeping wild or otherwise undomesticated animals, reptiles, fish… and for good reason.
In the case you cite… reportedly the man was breaking the law keeping a squirrel inside the home. The man then made it public via social media. Law enforcement received complaints, then removed it. The squirrel bit law enforcement so it had to be put down to check for rabies. Why are you trying to make more of it with some type of ‘pretext’ fantasy?
I recite these things admittedly after not knowing a damn thing about it until you made it a point of discussion. We obviously choose different news consumption.
Hey Dad, what did you do today?
Well son, I raged on the Internet about ‘murderqueer Nazi jackboots’ killing a squirrel.
Dad, you’re my hero.

Does that kinda stuff actually run through your noggin?
some over the top mourning is more equal than others.
I’m not in the weird pet category either, but I know how close someone can get to a pet. This is supposed to be a free country and what someone chooses as a pet (within the law of course - the squirrel guy was stupid, but so was the state’s reaction) is their choice. As long as it doesn’t infringe on someone else’s rights, whether you agree with them or not, is NOYFB. In this case, the mini pet donkey was pretty freaking harmless. This cop should lose his freaking job and like Diamondback said, turn in his nut sack.
If it wasn’t a cop and some guy came on to your property uninvited and unannounced, and commenced shooting your livestock, he would and should end up dead real quick. There is no difference as far as I’m concerned. You want to play that power card as an LEO on someone else’s property , you should also accept the risk and consequences that go along with that play. That known consequence would significantly lessen these types of incidents.

Were they? Squirrel bites a Girl Scout knocking on the door selling cookies. Parents discover that authorities had been notified of the squirrel unlawfully kept at the residence but chose not to remove it. Tell us what happens next, both legal and medical.
When did it bite a girl scout selling cookies? It was a wildlife biologist from the STATE Department. Sure, remove it. Euthenize it? Stupid.
