“Officers in Lowell, Michigan recently went out of their way to show appreciation for the citizens of their city by setting up the most generous speed trap ever created. The cops pulled motorists over for random traffic violations (i.e. tinted windows) near a shopping complex, then engaged the nervous drivers in small talk, artfully steering the conversation towards their Christmas wish lists. That info was surreptitiously relayed to a team of police elves, and the items were delivered during each traffic stop, setting the stage for some touching reactions.”

I think that this is really nice. Lately there has been a lot of bad news stories abut the police and it is nice to see a change in events. I think that it is really kind of this cop and goes well with the holiday season. I wish more people would be like this and give back. I also think those people should have been a little more grateful.
