Fox News reports that 3-year-old T.J. wanted to thank Officer Colter for braving the rain to find a sticker of a police badge to give him.

The sweetest moment! Kudos to parents to teach and respect our Blue to ther children! Not to Fear them, but to Love them! ??

It's times, like this one, where children show us the way. No race, colour, religion, etc. causing a problem.
