These police officers, however are doing something to help spread a positive message, and that message has been shared thousands of times!
It comes from Detective Brittany Hilton of the Bridge City Police Department. She wanted to do her part to help overcome all of the negative comments and actions against her fellow officers.
Although she started something she expected to have an impact, she never expected this.

“Thank you to Officer Brittany Beard Hilton for sharing this post with us, great sentiment and something we certainly wish more of the general public would take the time to think about.
From Brittany:
‘All you may see in this photo is two smiling police officers. But there is more. We are husband and wife, parents to four beautiful girls, we are a son and a daughter, a Brother and sister, a grandson and granddaughter, a Niece and nephew. (Steven is also an army veteran). We are friends to many. Before you say hateful things and put all officers in a category… remember we are all individuals attached to a delicate thin blue line. We are attacked daily and getting killed just for putting on a badge. You voice your opinion, and rally against law enforcement over tickets!! We are risking our lives.This photograph was taken on thanksgiving day. My husband and I both decided to work, giving up time with our family so the community would be safe.
Think before you speak. Your words could promote deadly actions.
WE BLEED BLUE! All lives matter'”
