A very caring Police officer for sure. Police officers are not at the top of the pay scales either so to pass that much on was doing a lot............................I............... :usa: that officer............... :up:

Yes, a true compassionate gesture.

There are a lot more officers that do this and more, than people could ever imagine.

 

God Bless.

Awesome...

I can immediately think of 4-5 incidents, just within the last couple of months, where my officers have done something similar (bought gas, food, gave cash).

 

But hell, it's much more fun to get on TGO and talk about the dick cop...

Not always. There was one real positive post this morning. And, I'm so tickled with Nashville Metro right now that I could turn cartwheels. They arrested five thievin' little bastards and got my #### back from them. Chased them down with a helicopter! I know that wasn't good samaritan stuff, but it sure was good cop stuff. In that case, I was hoping for at least one dick in the bunch.  :taser:

Congrats Mike. Can't stand a thief.

They were all juveniles, so they won't do anything to them. At least they started a file on them. It was felony theft and B&E

 

And BTW... all five of them were whiter than Joe Biden.

They sound just as smart as Biden as well. :rofl:

You are absolutely correct. Cops are people too. There are good and bad, but just like in the media, "if it bleeds at leads."

However, if a cop is a dick, he often ruins lives, not just days. We are actually right to shine light on the abuses of not only cops, but every public official who has the power to similarly ruin lives and does so. In general, I believe most cops are just like me; they just want to do their job and go home to their families who love and depend on them. As for the others, I have no more pity when they get busted than I do any other run of the mill thug.

With all that being said, thanks for your service. You do a job I would not do; one that is completely necessary to the fabric of our society. I know it's thankless 99% of the time, unless someone catches it on film or makes a big deal out of it like in this story.
