“COPS FOR KIDS”
Yea apparently, that's what that sheriff deputy was thinking. What a sick person. Has anyone heard the entire story on exactly what happened. I've seen several court documents but no actual story??
well i think that it is nice that "cops" actually do have something else they do besides go out and rape people and start trouble! but im not sure if i like the fact that they call the children they help "disadvantaged children" they are all not disadvantaged some of them are just familys that need a little extra help because of something that has come up and they cant afford to have a christmas like everyone else!
To me, whether it is the usual state of affairs, or "just familys that need a little extra help because of something that has come up and they cant afford to have a christmas like everyone else!", those kids are "disadvantaged" this year. Occasionally, we all "need a little help from our friends!"
No i disagree. There are not disadvantaged kids. Why because they cant get a bunch of material items???? When did christmas become about gifts. Why are they disadvantaged???? Ok families who need help fine. Does not make them disadvantage especially when it comes because they dont have gifts. I am a teenager i grew up when my parents could not hardly give us gifts. Sometimes the most they can do is provide and that is all we were thankful for. For us to wake up on christmas and be together that is all. No we were not disadvantaged we knew the reason of christmas. Goodness i cant even believe it!!
