I pray for all you officers today to get up everyday putvon that uniform and not knowing if your gonna see tomorrow especially today with the lack of respect you guys get along with having to deal with this privileged culture

[Thtisha]

Yes!! So happy the officer is doing better and so so happy to hear about the return of old strategies! Let’s get rid of the bs and people who commit them!!!!

What was he doing sleeping on the job? Working a double shift and collecting overtime.

[chrisv.]

You are true heroes !!!!anyone who doesn't feel that go to a country with no laws get out then !!!!

[Brotherjoshuapichardo]

Prayers for All The Blues. You guys are great people and many of times Heroes. Even The Bible teaches to pray for Law enforcements because they keep the Peace ✌ 🙏

Plain clothes with body camera? Not suspicious at all.

[rrsp]

Why would deploying plainclothes officers be controversial? Should the police inform the criminals of every move they make?

[DanielCruz-vpqu]

Prayers and protection for our heros in Blue. They are not alone.

This was a cowardly act. Very glad to see the officer is going to be okay.

I could see the plain clothes/anti crime unit returning but just watered down.
