This officer is an example for all of us. We definitely need more like him. Truly making a difference in his community.

[@TezcatlipocaMountyRailfan]

We don’t just need more police like him, we need more men like him. Friendly, calm, collected, but can do what’s needed when the time comes. Even I’m not as capable as I want to be, and certainly not as much as this officer, but we really do need more men like him.

It also helps that his mom showed the kid that officers can be helpful and not to be afraid to ask for help.

[@imhereforitall9218]

I literally almost started crying. Wish we had more stories like this than showing the worse part of humanity not doing great things. I never knew there were so many ways to tie a tie until I worked at a high end store selling high end suits and we learned to tie every conceivable knot there is known to mankind. The windsor knot was the one that just made the shirt and suit pop out. It gave you that military style look.

[@krane15]

Don' t make false statements. Police do not "risk their lives" to save anyone. In fact, the first thing they typically say to the public is something that goes, "for MY safety". The Police are under no obligation to save anyone. In actuality, its firefighters, and paramedics/EMTs that risk their lives to save people. Never forget that.

[@pmabrouk]

made me cry! What a wonderful example of a man!

[@THE-X-Force]

This video is staged. It is fake. It is insidious propaganda. This did not happen. But it was successful in its purpose, which was to deceive people. To cultivate an unearned trust, respect, and appreciation for an organization that is largely out of control and with qualified immunity, almost completely held unaccountable for the crimes they commit against a public they swore to protect. Because of their many decades of abuse of power, and the trust the public placed in them, and with the ubiquitous nature of cellphones now giving nearly everyone in the public a camera in their pocket at all times, thus revealing their systemic viscous abuses in a way never possible before, they have a serious reputation problem, which they try to mitigate and manipulate with fake videos like this. You can type "Police help tie" right here and see for yourself 50+ other vids of this exact staged copaganda with your own two eyes. What an amazing coincidence that cops all over the country are randomly helping youngsters tie their ties before going to a job interview or whatever the script says. And all caught in perfect framing. Amazing. Did you know that the Supreme Court ruled that police officers have absolutely no legal obligation whatsoever to "Protect" the public .. at all .. zero .. none? Well, now you do. They aren't even obligated to know the law. They are legally allowed to lie to you though. And with qualified immunity, they can toss a flash-bang grenade in your baby's crib, in the middle of the night, bust in and shoot everyone, and then say "oops, wrong house" .. and face zero accountability. That's not a story I just made up for an example. That's a thing that literally happened. Infant was in a coma with 3rd degree burns for months, but thankfully survived. Mom wasn't so lucky. And that isn't just a one-off situation. "Serving" the public isn't even on their list of things to give a single f about. They stopped putting "protect and serve" on the side of police cars a lonnnnnng time ago for exactly this reason. And they intentionally removed it from the cars that did still have it. Their entire mindset is "Us vs Them" now, and they are trained to think and act that way. This is the sad truth, and the sooner we come to terms with it, the better. ☮

[@TheMadeofhonor]

This is the perfect example of what an officer should be. They are suppose to help and serve the people, not intimidate and bully them. Hats off to this kind, compassionate officer.

[@Kevin-gg2bl]

This is what most cops are. You just allow your view to be manipulated and polluted by corrupted media trying to spin anger and hate for engagement

[@slipdisco]

This is wonderful! I am a community college professor in Cleveland, Ohio, and I have had many young male students who don't know how to tie a tie. Many of these young men never had any positive males figures in their lives to teach them. My father taught me how to tie my tie when I was a boy. I help anyone who needs it. Also, at my college, we have an program that provides donated ties to our young men who need them. In addition to this, we have an etiquette luncheon twice a year for students. We stress that good eating habits are important in the professional workplace, as many job interviews and work activities happen around meals. It is nice to see the students absorb and learn things they were never exposed to! This school resource officer is a hero and fantastic role model!

This brings me back to when I was a college student.

I've always been appreciative of the help and I've never forgotten how to tie that knot.

[@Byronic19134]

Awkward but yeah the double Windsor is exactly the knot the GM of the interview likely wanted to see which is just one extra step but a tricky one.

Yeah back before youtube, you actually had to go out and buy a book on how to tie a tie correctly...
