        This is how we treat our #firstresponders?!?! Call them heroes & use as emotional props during a campaign; in real life pay them less than 40k/yr & then let them go just before Christmas, right in time to kill their pension?!?! #travesty

        Being fired for an injury you received while on the job sounds like he can take legal action. My bigger question is wth is a cop only being paid $38k/yr?

        You want to have a conversation, Mayor Cole? Let’s not fire the man 6 months before he’s vested. Despicable.

        He saved lives and now suffers from it. But they're just going to fire him bcuz of that? Wow. This man has to live with what he seen that night for the rest of his life. Why should he be punished? I'm heartbroken for him. Shame on this police department

        this makes me very uncomfortable to put out on social media but, I have been suffering from PTSD for the past 3 years. Instead of getting this officer the services and therapy he needs they choose to fire him. SHAME ON THE DEPARTMENT #youareahero #stoptheSTIGMA #PTSD
