| January Wolves User ID: 62388828 United States12/10/2014 12:02 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | That was great. I wonder if this was the first year to do that? In my area (rural) the police do a lot for kids & families at Christmas. The fifty-some officers at the jail sponsor a large family & buy ham with all the fixings, clothes and several gifts for each member of the family. They use their own money. And the PD runs a toy drive and also takes kids & their families shopping for gifts which I think their association pays for. |

And the PD runs a toy drive and also takes kids & their families shopping for gifts which I think their association pays for. I think it's new. I found this article on it from a local news site. snips.... Chief Steve Bukala says in the video, "most of the contact the police officers have with the general public is on a traffic stop and you can find a lot out about that person in that 10 to 15 minute window, whether they're having a good day, a bad day, or a horrible day. And then we got this idea: what if we could change that person's day in real time? What if we could change that person's day right now?" Chief Bukala says officers pulled over 50 drivers for the video and handed out about 30 presents, totaling about $7,000. The most expensive was a laptop computer and a Xbox gaming system, and the most modest was a curling iron. Lowell police say none of the drivers was issued a ticket. MORE....
