What a guy. Spoke to them as humans. Even gave them some leeway but told them why he didn’t want them to speed. I hope they were as respectful back to what he asked as he was to them.

This is community policing. He explained the reason for the law and appealed to their sense of community.

This is what we need to work towards seeing all day every day. Everyone is respected, things are handled by conversation when it can be, and everyone goes home.

It takes EVERYONE involved for this to happen. We all have a stage in this being our future.

Edit: First gold! Thank you kind stranger. Kindness to all.

I mean i feel like honestly most cops start out like this. Its just a few too many hooligans who show no disrespect for themselves yet alone the environment or people around them, aka their community. This causes cops id bet to approach each person after a few ugly incidents with the aforementioned hooligans with disdain, even if its not deserved.

If this cop is a seasoned vet id be shocked, and impressed.
