  1. always the white prestege.

  2. Off the subject, I live in northern Illinois and just woke up to a 3.6 earthquake!

  3. This guy is the real American God bless

  4. We the People,,,, support Law Enforcement!

  5. If they can give Megan rapone a presidential metal for being a douchbag. This guy should have one too.
    Plus a full pardon for any past infractions

  6. That man who saved the officer is a heck of a man. A real hero. Thanks for saving the blue❤️❤️

  7. That's great and all but didn't the officer get grazed on the leg??? 😂😂😂

  8. Well done and speedy recovery for the officer.

  9. The officer kissed his hand 😢 as his holding on him

  10. How did the criminal get a gun?

  11. A true hero who did not need more guns or to cause more violence in order to help someone and make a difference. Bless him.

  12. I like how they just HAD to mention his previous trouble with the law. They couldn't just thank him for being a good bloke without demeaning him

  13. Imagine if there were no guns.

  14. Great story especially because even tho it involves cops it is completely free of copaganda. Instead it's just a story of empathy bravery and kindness. Well done

  15. Governor needs to issue a pardon for past offenses. He earned that.

  16. Why haven’t the gun laws that Abbott established prevented this awful thing from happening?

  17. He just want to become viral

  18. Those 2 Johns will be lifetime friends.
