But all cops are deplorable and killers. I can't believe BLM?

You'd think I would have seen that on our local news but oh no. They dare not utter a single good word about a cop. Fucking media scum of the earth.

So a cop did what virtually any other physically capable person would have done. Of course he deserves praise for what he did, but I'm not sure what him being a cop had to do with it.

That wasn't minutes, that was in the nick of time!
That took good reflexes.

Well done. We could use women (officers) like her in Canada.

Probably Peruvian or something around that area is my guess.

Ahh..Columbian.

I watched that the other day.....totally amazing! that police officer is a hero!

If he was black the cop would have pushed him onto the tracks!
If he was trying to commit suicide he’d successfully sue the cop for stopping him.

This is the kind of thing cops do every day and their reward is that they get hated on by the Democrats.

Not every physically capable person would do such a thing no matter what the person in question does for their job.

God bless you and them and the person they saved always!!!

P.S. Sadly, too many people out there would rather wreak havoc on other people whether them other people truly deserve such a fate or not.
