That puts the traditional 'serve and protect' to a new standard. You won't see any of this kind of service in the media.

[The Bubba Effect]

Media outlets have the choice of covering things like this or shoving a camera in the face of a woman who's son just got killed robbing a gas station.

And, it happens every day!

That is very cool. We'd never know how much this sort of thing happens.

Yes they have a choice and that choice is spent twisting up the population.

Bravo Off. Josett, keeping up the tradition. This kind of stuff happens everyday, it's just never reported. Anybody ever seen Action Figure Therapy? (Funny as f*$k if you do watch it.) There's a dude in there who's an Army Ranger and he always says "Problem solved, problem staying solved." That's pretty much what these types of services are for us. Every day we come across something that isn't necessarily a LE-related duty, but it's a problem that needs to be solved. In a lot of cases, either it'll never get resolved, it will cause great difficulty for the person to resolve it (as in the above story) or, more commonly, it's just the human thing to do.

For example, my team and I were working in one of the ghetto apartment complexes in Indy (surprise!) and there's this elderly gal in a black wheelchair trying to cross 38th/Post at night. Luckily she had a fluorescent traffic vest on but she was still hard to see. So I hit my lights and helped her across the street and found out that she lived way in the back of the complex and rolls herself all the way out to the bus stop four days a week to go downtown to work. She obviously doesn't have a lot of money by where she lives, and it's super dangerous to roll through the complex AND cross a busy street at night. So, being a former bike patrol guy, I came up with a solution to help her see and be seen while she was getting around. Since I couldn't cover the cost of the equipment I needed, the guys on my team and I all pitched in about ten bucks each and I went to the bike shop where we get our bike patrol gear. I got two red LED taillights and two white LED headlights, all of them USB rechargeable, and stopped in Dollar General store and picked up a surge protector. The team and I went over the next day and rigged up her chair so she'd have headlights and taillights and made a charging station so she could plug in the lights.

We didn't do it for any accolades or approval, we just did it so this nice old lady wouldn't get hit crossing a dangerous street. She's one of our citizens and it was just the right thing to do.
