The best one

A good human being inspired by God. We should take on his example and help homeless people who have addictions.

You are 100% correct!!That's what many people don't understand. Cops are people. A good cop is usually going to be a good friend, good brother/sister, etc. Usually a bad cop is also a horrible husband/wife, father/mother.

Ru Ba exactly. My opinion is that American police forces attract a disproportionate amount of people who just itch to be aggressive and brutal - but I can also acknowledge that there are truly decent and caring officers that want to do the job with humility and justice. This man is a good human, so therefore he makes a good officer. To paraphrase Wayne Dyer: “when you squeeze an orange, what comes out is orange juice, because that’s what it contains. When you are squeezed, what you contain is what comes out.” This man (and his wife) were obviously filled with mercy and selflessness. This country needs to change the kinds of officers that they hire, and stop punishing the whistleblowers trying to uphold their duty to protect the people and do the right thing.

Ru Ba I mean being a good cop is there job yes they may not be bad cops but they support and owner for the awful system

this is what a good person does

That line alone made me cry bro

Also the words that came out of his sergeant at 12:14 "I thought my job was to teach him. I thought my job was to talk to him about getting home safe and making mom proud. But here we see this man teaching me", moved me. Officer Holets and Sergeant Edison are both great cops and great human beings.

That’s what i felt

I paid to put my little brother through rehab after my dad died and he hit rock bottom. I was the only one to listen.

Absolutely!

I didn't cry until that moment. Amazing man.

Yup that definitely did not fall on deaf ears I heard that loud and clear and made me want to do better so I can help someone if I can someday.....

Yes. I always wait to see if someone else will do anything. There is never someone else and I am the one who end up helping. I hope to get rid of my codependency some time in the future and be selfish like everybody else.

I know... but I feel remorse.

VideoEtTaceo Thank you :)

it warmed my heart when that part came up in the video.

Lara Yes, it was unselfish!!

she mama'ed up imo, and i hope that she manages to get and keep her life in order and possibly even maintain some kind of ongoing relationship with hope and the holets family.

she was shooting heroin while pregnant which can harm and even kill a baby. she didn't care about that baby nearly as much as she should have.

Being hooked on meth or crack or heroin is beyond horrible! They can take away everything in your life.

Good for you! I can't imagine how tough it must've been, but for what it's worth I'm happy to hear it.

Keep going!!!! 💝❤️💖💗💓💞💕❣️

Congratulations, I hope you're still doing good and being strong. If not, you can always start over again. Do you remember the dad said everyone is redeemable. He's right.

People have this idea that addiction is a simple choice. A choice that only bad people make. But truth be told, there are a million and one ways someone can fall into addiction and it can happen to anyone. It’s easy to believe it can never happen to you or anyone around you, but addiction is far more common then people realize. Cause some people also forget that drugs aren’t the only form of addiction either.

He knows her! He knew she would be excited! Incredible couple with a lot of harmony!

It's amazing to see such a well functioning relationship, and to help a little one in need and they're birth parents is amazing

b ray nobody said hero, it says heroism which is a word of its own that is associated with audacity and spirit. No he isn’t say a war hero, but he sure is that kids hero/saviour (litteraly). On the other hand, you’re here deciding what counts as heroic when you yourself have never done anything remotely close to even daring.

@Julie W. "All goodness cometh from the lord" Okay... Does your god control the affairs of the entire universe? If he doesn't then he is NOT omnipotent. If he doesn't control and will the evil you see in this world then he isn't a god by the description given in your own Bible. What I'm saying is: if god doesn't will evil to happen then that discredits him from being the god you worship. How can god be all good AND omnipotent in a world where evil exists?

My story exactly. My father was a Albuquerque Police Officer when I was born. But my dad was horrible and I have a feeling that he was fired. He passed about 5-6 years ago. Not one person has shed a tear, especially me, since his death. I still wish I could get the real story from APD about him.

Yes she did something amazing and yes she did fuck up her baby but I am sorry it isn’t as easy as ppl want to think it’s so hard but I can tell you it can happen and none of my addiction had been done thru my pregnancy and I did the best thing I could not to see my baby go thru what I can’t and I know it is not my baby fault

@@minxymoo2325 see the thing is, not everyone believes in abortions. Every one's opinions differ and some people carry the guilt. In her case, the baby is healthy and fine and now has a happy family. It may not seem like a big deal, but it takes a lot for someone to give up a child they have carried while battling their demons. So I can respect her.id advise you do the same or get out of my comment thread. Then again your most recent comments are all complaining. So is that your personality trait?😹😹😹

@@minxymoo2325 you would rather her kill the baby?? As if thats not just as bad? You know what they say. The people who are for abortion are already born.

You can't blame them for that.

Then we as a people and as individuals need to affect that change and become that of which we admire and respect as I do with this officer and his beautiful family.

She is soooo sweet 🥰. He's so lucky.

so true, they're both literal angels.

Such a wonderful couple.

Thats what happy couples do. My sister in law came out of class (college) and her mom called and told her a friend's friend is losing her child due to drugs and if she want to adopt the baby and without hesitation she said "yes". She later went home told her husband they are adopting and he says "okay" lol. After the adoption of baby girl, two years after to be exact, the baby has a sibling, baby boy.... now adopted by my brother and sister in law. Its stressful but worth it. My niece and nephew are so adorable and amazing ❤.

@@Baybieangel209 There's a huge difference between asking and springing it on her. Welcoming a new baby is a big responsibility, and "happy couples" need to include each other in major life-changing decisions like this. Even if he knows his wife and knows that she'd be willing to adopt, he should have at least checked with her out of respect (and to hear any concerns) before making the offer, instead of agreeing to adopt and then TELLING her that he'd made the decision on behalf of both of them. I understand that in the moment he was likely very emotional and might not have thought that much, but making major decisions without your spouse's input not something that we should be glorifying by any means.

Noticed that as well! Loved this so much

❤️

... Like... Crystal meth?

K Eck right that as well.....

Or after crystal meth.

That is something to ponder on daily

S.M.P. Newstead haha i gave u ur 1k like 💗

It is nice that the birthmom and dad has a chance to see her grow up and also for Hope to see them later in life if she wants. OMG such a wonderful story. Little baby Hope.

@Nikol S. Ervant Sobriety is the state of not being under the influence of any mind-altering substance. Similar is how "driving under the influence" may refer to alcohol or any other mind-altering substance. The psychiatric field definitely does not use the term "clean," because the opposite of that is dirty. "Junkie" is quite pejorative and dehumanizing too. Nice try at being condescending.

Thank you for saying sober instead of “clean”. We aren’t dirty - it’s actively using and we aren’t clean - we’re in recovery or sobriety. 5 years and counting in long term recovery from opiate use disorder and working with moms actively using, seeking recovery and/or in long term recovery 💜 #RecoveryIsPossible

That biological mother has gone viral before, I’m sure I’ve seen the same face and she was homeless then too. Don’t know if they scammed this couple or what

Exactly. Opened up my eyes.

Its beautiful ye. But also not really true :) you cant be responsible for other peoples bad decisions. You can choose to Help if you can, of course

Wth i read that at the same time 👌👌👌

@@MrPeteDane But it is still true though, the one who hears someone crying for help is responsible, then has to make a decision wether to help or turn to the other side, the point is that he/she heard and can't unhear, whatever choice he/she makes

@@MrPeteDane dont have to be so literal its obvious what he meant

@C H it's not always a choice. People are prescribed medicines by the doctor that they trust, and become addicted. Eventually the pills aren't enough and they move on to stronger things....from the streets. Nobody wakes up and says "today im going to become an addict and spend the rest of my life in misery." 🙄 Even for those who did choose to use opiates the first time, are they not deserving of help just because they made a bad choice? Have you never made a bad decision? The wrong decision? Trust me, it only takes 1 or 2 times of using heroin to become addicted to it. That quick, a person finds themselves trying to get more bc they literally feel like their body is going to shut down if they don't. All because of the one bad decision. Again, nobody wakes up dreaming of becoming an addict and living that lifestyle. I sure hope that you or someone you care about never has a bad day and makes that bad decision. The way things are going in the world today with addiction, it is *very* possible and *very* likely that addiction will hit close to home for you, and I hope no one turns their nose up at your family/friend and says "you shouldn't have chosen to abuse opiates." That would really suck. 😬🤷

It's really, really, really easy to get addicted to pain pills.. been there, done that..

D D And the western governments . The amount of illegal drugs on the streetsdon't get into western countries through mules!

When you have a baby in your stomach and continue to love your shitty life, you deserve to be told the truth of what you’re doing. If you wanna call it judgement, then you’re very weak

I grew up knowing not to touch hard drugs. Tough life, many hardships but still knew the rules of addiction. Person choice is what it is and I have seen the devastation and so many deaths and lives destroyed so STFU. DON'T TAKE IN THE FIRST PLACE.

Not everyone can help themselves and you're the problem if you think it makes you a good person just because you gave them money knowingly they would use it for drugs. You say it's not your responsibility but the fact that you gave that person money makes it your business. If someone wants something they have to put in the work instead of just hoping someone would give them money for their addiction. I like to thank you for twisting my response because your entire comment was done out of emotion. What the OP said implies everyone has to help because those people are asking for help and you heard them. But that's not always the case hence why I said what I said.
