[quote]When an upset boy called his local police station for help, he had no idea he would make a friend for life.
13-year-old Cameron Simmons called the police station because he was upset after having a fight with his mom. Officer Gaetano Acerra, who responded to the call, gave him some practical advice:
“I said, ‘You have it good, you have a roof over your head,’” said Acerra. “I told him I would try to help him out, and here we are now.”
However, when he brought Simmons home, he noticed that the boy didn’t have a lot of the things that kids should have, such as a bed and a desk.
“My heart went out for him,” said Acerra. “I thought the little things that he needed I could give him, to make him a happier kid.”
A few weeks later, he showed up at Simmons’ house with a truck full of gifts. Because a police officer was willing to step out of his comfort zone, a teen in need has a place to study, somewhere comfortable to sleep and, most importantly, an amazing new role model.[/quote]

So, where's camnator at now? Interesting enough is that good acts of kindness like this are fulfilled each and everyday by law enforcement. It's a shame that people are so willing to bash these people who risk their lives yet when they do something beyond their duties (again, that's everyday) then not a single word is spoken about it. God bless this man and teen

This one cop doesn't represent every single cop. Just like the cop in Ferguson doesn't. However majority of cops are douches
-
Nice cop! Doesn't make up for the majority of shitty cops, but he's nice!
-
Cop gives teen a new bed. Cop shoots teen to death for no reason. Yeah...that balances out.
-
What are people bashing them about?
-
People ignore the good because it doesn't fit their opinions of law enforcement.
-
Because at the moment, it seems for every US cop who greatly helps the community, there is another who is corrupt or violent.

I woulda whipped my kids ass if he did something like this

*tries to clap but misses and slaps self in face, looks around to see if anyone saw, then stares at ground*
-
Kids should have the necessities but assuming this kid will turn out better simply because he was given some material possessions shows the fault in most people's way of thinking.
-
This isn't true and if it is the cop faked his kindness and will arrest the young boy
-
If only every human was like this.

*claps*

I have a question. Why does the mother have a house but not a simple futon?
-
Sadly this will go unheard of because good is boring
-
I love how this goes mostly unnoticed
-
Nice try Methew your obsession is pathetic.
-
Evil makes for good headlines.

When my mother was throwing knives at me the cops called me a baby and told me to deal with it.
