Real cops form relationships with their community, building trust and affecting the lives of children positively. There is no better example of this than Todd Templeton and his fellow officers from Kansas City, Missouri.
Without knowing he and his officers were being filmed, they played basketball with local kids for 30 min. this week.
“We’re doing it for the kids. We love the kids out here. We try to do our best interacting with the kids,” Templeton states. “They see enough of the bad stuff that goes in the neighborhoods just like we do, and we need to get their mind off of that.”
I nice story to see – as of late we seem to be beset by thugs in a uniform all over the country. Thanks for reminding us all what real cops are like guys.
how have these cops escaped being bad like the others? what would they have done if they had been in the group of cops who choked that man? would they have tried to stop those cops from choking him? or people who have been beaten and killed by cops? id like to know how brave theyd be in a difficult situation. its the easiest thing in the world to play basketball with a couple of kids. but how would they act in the many gestapo tactics that the cops are using against the american citizens today? then ill show you who’s brave. would they go along to get along or would they be a thorn in the side of the other cops?
cool story.
Some cops are professional and humanistic, others are fkn as*holes and sociopaths.
FOR those that are a holes and sociopaths get out of the job b 4 you do something really stupid.
We need some of these great officers in Delaware.
Will they stand up to their union bosses and do what is right and condemn all brutal acts committed by their fellow officers?
I ain’t buying it!
God bless em!
I would LIKE to think this is the norm. “Like”, being the operative word.
Speaking from being resident of Kansas City, the KCPD officers have a dangerous and stressful job. They are under paid and under appreciated. The fact is we all have accountability for our actions. The violence in KC has increased two fold from when I was growing up in KC. I for one thank them.
