On this evening's news, WRCB-TV3 reported that officer Josh Wright kept a promise to a young boy injured earlier this year. Attaboy, officer Wright! Link. |

Oh Brother.....
Make a child learn to believe and trust a cop, then when he's older, he will have to learn all over again, you can't ever trust a cop!
I have been promised a lot of things by cops, but none of them ever kept thier promise to me!

Great outlook here and it's probably being passed on to the next generation by a few parents. Kind of like the idiot parents who tell their kids, "If you don't behave, that cop'll take you to jail" when they see an LEO. What a great stereotype to pass on to young impressionabe minds. A perfect example of damned if you do, damned if you don't. Kudos to Officer Wright no matter what the simpler, more negative, minds may think of it. Thanks for the support. |

The officers that I know are wonderful people. If you can't trust them, who are you going to trust? The gang member that just raped your grandmother?

Good story by a good officer. It is just the bad one's that we worry about.

Trust no one until each has earned the trust incrementally.
Trust is earned on an individual basis. Certainly not through employment.
Kudos to Josh Wright for keeping his word.
Who the kid is taught to trust is a long process with many changes. At least the kid received some good vibes at a crucial time.

I have been promised a lot of things by cops, but none of them ever kept thier promise to me! Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? Are you serious? Ok lady so some cop "hit and quit it", is that any different the numerous amounts of employed and unemployed men that have promised to call you and didn't after the deed? Would you say never trust a doctor if he made promises to follow through... what a bunch of shit.... |

I agree! I have been let off for expired tags or speeding with a promise to the officer that I would take care of it or not speed anymore. I have kept mine out of appreciation for them trusting me to do what I said I would.

I promise to buy ALL my toiletries and miscellaneous care items at WalMart, and check out through automotive.... superior work and ethic, Josh! |

Oh Brother..... Make a child learn to believe and trust a cop, then when he's older, he will have to learn all over again, you can't ever trust a cop! I have been promised a lot of things by cops, but none of them ever kept thier promise to me! I don't trust cashiers. I tried to check out with 500 bags of candy corn, a sports bra, and have a key made at Walmart and the clerk told me she was only a "Automotive Specialist". I said "Listen, specialize on making my house key. My corn dogs are melting." Then of course my sports bra (I have moobs, if you must know) was missing it's price sticker. Then I find out it is $7.99. I tell Ms. Sunshine "Auto Specialist" that was too much (Low prices my butt). Then they have to call someone to void the transaction out. Now my corn dogs are really melting. I really felt bad having to split the receipt and pay for the total with two separate debit cards, but I believe in strict cost accounting. Then as I am rolling out I see the crusty old receipt checker. He says "I need to see your receipt." I say "Come get some old man!" His alligator mouth was writing checks his chicken ass couldn't cash. I don't need some dirty old man asking me about my sports bra. |
