A police officer was ambushed. He was asked to go to a press conference to talk about something or other. No one was listening, however. They were waiting for another man to arrive and confront the police officer.
In the background you see the man enter the lobby where the presser was taking place.
He walks slowly towards the officer.
He put his hand on his shoulder from behind, the officer was startled.
“Do you recognize me?,” asked the larger younger man.
“No, I don’t,” answered the officer, a little trepidation in his voice.
“In 1997, you pulled a 5 year-old out of pool and saved his life.”

Some black lives matter.
All Lives Matter, color of skin is irrelevant. It brings tears to your eyes to see when much love and appreciation is given to those who serve. Great is their reward!
Wow.
Dayum, seems like all is not lost after all.
Bravo
