When he arrived for work that afternoon, his co-workers were watching news coverage of the terrorist attacks and one of them asked him in a mocking way, "Where have you been?", as if to infer that he had participated in the attacks.

When Dred Scott v. Sandford was decided in 1857, it made an enormous impact on the United States. It riled up both pro- and anti-slavery Americans. It angered many Americans in an extreme example of judicial activism. Some say it made the Civil War inevitable. By the time the dust had settled and the 13th and 14th Amendments reversed the Court’s decision, Dred Scott could be considered one of the worst Supreme Court decisions of all time. And yet, although the case was egregiously wrong, it still can be considered a “great case”.

Very quickly, I still think the answer is no. Assuming the officer was responding to an emergency and entering unannounced and unescorted, I believe he should have anticipated the guard dog as a possibility. Were there “Beware of Dog” signs or any similar warnings? If yes, then he definitely should have anticipated it. Plus, I would think that officers are trained to anticipate a guard dog or other similar dangers when entering a premise, especially if unannounced or unescorted. However, if the owner escorted the officer in or invited him in and did not warn the officer of the dog, then he could state a claim.
