(4,764 posts)I found this very moving.....a totally terrific video. May it find its way to the young in turmoil who need to see it.

Next time, please note that the men's room is just down the hall and to the right and don't forget to wash your hands.

(26,219 posts)I actually appreciate these members of the SFPD for the job they do and for taking their time to reach out to the kids who are struggling today. God only knows where I would be today, had I had such role models.
You are, of course, free to disagree.

(25,699 posts)I just feel that, given the SFPD response to Occupy, it comes off a little... awkward. y'know? They can put out all the nice-spirited videos they want, but if they act like abusers and bullies when they're on-duty...
Ah well. Like I said, it's a nice sentiment, and the outreach is appreciated, so I guess we can agree on that much.
