A loving daughter brought tears to her police office father's eyes, when she secretly flew from Florida to his New York suburb and was on the other end of his final sign-off to the dispatch room before his retirement after 35 years of service. Scott Lawida, 64, a senior investigator with the Amherst Police Department in New York, had no idea his 22-year-old daughter Maddi was set to come on the other end of the line. After Scott was thanked for his service, Maddi spoke, saying how proud she was of her father and how much she loved him. When everything began to click, a chocked up Scott then said, "Thank you, Maddi," before tears began to fill his eyes.

This comment is a line that really shows what you learn from the media. "these people". Yes. Thousands of individual unique humans across the damn nation. Not some hive mind. Maybe if your world weren't so sheltered you'd understand what they talk about. Go watch videos of cops being executed at traffic stops and maybe you'll start to understand. People are actively trying to kill them. Every day. Because they are an obstacle if your goal is illegal activities. Are some cops shit people? Yes. Do some cops make mistakes? Yes. But the vast majority are decent people that you have never even spoken to, yet you claim to know.

@iwonttellmynametoamachine5422 2 ай бұрын

Yes Karen, they're taught to keep fighting the bad and that's why it's called a good fight and not a bad fight. Get over it.
