My dad was a police officer on Capitol Hill for 35yrs.
After seeing that video from ATL PD this am I thought I’d share my dad talking about what he did when he saw someone drunk while he was working.
The difference in outcomes is my dad knew his role was to HELP.

Here’s the letter my dad received from the Chief of Police in 2016. He was retired but the gentleman my dad helped wrote a letter to acknowledge how my dad’s actions changed his life.
Wanna know how messed up our reality is? Why Black folks are tired? When my father sent me the letter I googled him immediately.
He died from #COVID19 on April 15. My dad is devastated. https://www.pennlive.com/news/2020/04/harrisburg-school-board-member-killed-by-covid-19-worked-front-lines-as-a-social-worker-despite-risks.html

My dad spoke to him earlier this year. And they last saw one another about two years ago.
He was a social worker, an adjunct professor and a member of the school board.
Here’s a snippet of the letter he wrote. It highlights how my dad’s actions changed his life.

And here is my dad (Butch/Officer T. Jones) and Gerald years after their initial encounter.
Here’s a comment on my IG post about my dad...
He was/is the change.
