Mutant Monster RAEG-HAPYP Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 http://www.today.com/news/texas-police-officers-buy-car-seats-family-need-instead-issuing-t52281 It seems what happened was a traffic stop, but instead of giving tickets, these cops decided to buy car seats. I like when things like this happen because it shows that not everyone in law enforcement is a monster looking to harass, beat up, or kill someone.

vla1ne Posted October 27, 2015 Report Share Posted October 27, 2015 this is the kind of stuff that makes me respect cops, and yet, unlike cop violence, it rarely spreads to as many places despite being the more wonderful news.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 This is the kind of stuff cops should be remembered for, not that other crap with them shooting people (or that recent incident with a high school girl).Pretty sad that we hear more of the bad stuff about law enforcement than the good stuff like these officers did for this father of three. Likely there's more cops out there who do their job properly (serve the community), but like always, they're blocked out by the other stuff.

Kanashimi Posted October 28, 2015 Report Share Posted October 28, 2015 That's how cops should be . . . not something like violence-shooting-arresting-giving tickets etc etc etc I hope cops (and other law enforcements) in my country do the same . . .[spoiler= '']. . . instead of sucking money and taking a bribe from the society, even the higher ups is much more worse. What a corrupt country i live in <.< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cops already have an extremely tough job and the amount of media attention they get when one of their own does something bad makes it even harder. It probably furthers the rift between the police and the community. Heck, I think the director of the FBI said something like cops are too scared to do their jobs. Don't quote me on that, though.

Sure, police violence is wrong but so is violence against the police. Being a cop is tough, indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
~ P O L A R I S ~ Posted October 29, 2015 Report Share Posted October 29, 2015 I've always wondered what your fascination with cops stemmed from, though admittedly this is a nice example of altruism from human beings to another in any case!
