Oh, my, the White House and the Black Klan aren't going to like this Narrative-defying story:
A Virginia State Trooper received Facebook praise from a worried mother over the way he took care of her stranded son. When Joseph Owusu’s car got a flat tire while the Virginia Tech student drove home from school last week, Trooper Matt Okes spent hours with the twenty-year-old student to make sure he was safe on the dark and busy road. ……
Owusu said her son’s tires were stuck on the car, so Trooper Okes positioned his well-lit cruiser to make sure truckers and other drivers on Route 220 south were aware of Joseph’s stranded car as AAA and his worried parents responded. ……
“There’s a lot of good in this world and people want to hear positive stories,” Dr. Owusu said. “As far as I was concerned, there was a good person waiting with my son. I didn’t care if he was green, blue, yellow. There’s a lot of good in America and that needs to be heard. Police need our support.”
The rule, ladies and gentlemen, not the exception. Never forget that.
Somewhere, Dr. King is spinning a little less furiously in his grave.
