I also like the way the post is written, not to push any agendas but just to share the wholesomeness of that anecdote.
Sometimes people who intend well will say things like "Glad to see there are still some good cops around..." or "Much thanks to XX police department for actually being trained to respect the people they serve... ", which may come across as very negative and hostile.
I remember right after 9/11, when tensions were really high. My city in TN had a place called 'Ali-Baba's Time Out Deli' that had been there for twenty years and it started getting death threats.
Over a hundred people who would be close to borderline /r/trashy went there and told him not to worry. They were all going to set up around the block and stay there for as long as they needed to. He should just go about business as usual and know that he had nothing to worry about.
So, yeah, we got the first kind of people here, the kind making the calls, but we got way more of the second kind.
