Lovely.

[romanic]

[BlueNoMatterWho]

16. If only the networks could show this instead of the other nonsense.

[lpbk2713]

And I admire them for that.

[BlueNoMatterWho]

18. They do.

[auntpurl]

8. This is wonderful. There are so many good people in the world.

This is a true tonic after the horror of the past few days.

[BlueNoMatterWho]

17. Amen and Amen!!!

[TeddyR]

19. That is outstanding, thanks

[BlueNoMatterWho]

30. Of course. I'm glad I found it.

[Ilsa]

20. My church specifically prays for first responders every service.

And we have services where we honor them, with dept heads attending, etc, to let them know we care. But we don't get to hug them that much.

[morningfog]

23. And herein exposes another reason why BLM is critical.

When a young black man is murdered by a white cop, does the larger community and the police force line up to comfort his grieving family?

Or are they called thugs? Are they maligned in the media? And how are their assailants treated? Paid vacation and eventual exoneration.

[SheilaT]

25. Yes. The police should attend the

funerals of Alton Sterling and Philando Castile and hug their family members.

I do know that most cops are good and only trying to do their jobs, but a significant minority are all too happy to intimidate, brutalize, and kill people. What happened in Dallas should not have happened, but I'm somewhat surprised something like that hasn't happened sooner.

[Vattel]

31. People often do reach out to the victim's family members, and they also protest.

[sufrommich]

24. That is beautiful. I'm teary eyed now. nt

[rollin74]

27. K & R

awesome

[AntiBank]

29. thank you so so much for this post!!!

I actually teared up and I am one nihilistic bastard. Hopefully some good comes out of these monstrous events.

[7wo7rees]

32. We have been a part of many protests in Dallas going back to 2001.

This is hurting bad. For the most part always any protest was worked out with police and always peaceful. We always strived for peace.

[Her Sister]

33. Reminds all of us that we're all humans!

Important reminder! Perhaps this could happen with other types of tragedies! Cops need to be reminded that POC are human! and everyone needs to remember that cops are human.

[treestar]

34. This is most of us

The vast majority. We need to focus on that and not the outlier extremists.
