High Fives Are Intimidating to Children?

1. Im sorry bud but common sense isnt common and its nearly extinct sadly..

2. I'm so sick of these frigging people! It seems people have become COWARDS! Stand up to these liberal pos! It's getting out of hand people!! Take a FUCKING STAND!! COWARDS!

3. well guess what now Toronto District School Board want end the SRO because of the fucking kids that feel 'uncomfortable and intimidated' of armed police presance

4. All the More Reason I am looking to Move out of MA…….

5. YOU HAVNT DONE ENOUGH VIDEOS

6. So are SJWs offended on kid's behalf because "clearly a kid from minority family is getting beaten so much, the highfive gesture will give them a PTSD flashback" or something?

   Because if that is so, I wouldn't be surprised. Closet racists everywhere these days, patronizing others and using them to push their stupid agendas.

7. Cops are better off, kids' hands are petri dishes

8. Unsubscribed due to Jenner joke. I thought you were a cool cop. Oh well.

9. The video was offensive… it was too short!

10. I woke up this morning. Looked in the mirror. Saw some white boy staring back at me. #offended

11. Mike: "This is stupidity level nine thousand."

    "Vegeta, what does common sense say about his stupidity level?"
    "IT'S OVER NINE THOUSAAAAAAND!!!!"

12. That is so stupid. If your kid is scared or offended then home school them!

13. ………….. how did we get to this ??????

14. People who are so offended should go for counseling

15. That Burn tho

16. Sorry Mike, but in Northampton MA it's not that the kids are scared of cops, it's that they're scared of men, having never actually seem a real man in that bastion of lesbian bliss!

17. Even if the kids are a little nervous, I was kind of intimidated cops when I was a kid, they will have a positive experience and maybe they won't panic when they meet one out in the real world.

18. Give me 5 Mike. Spot on.

19. I can't speak for small children or illegal immigrants, but as a young adult who's been arrested multiple times and had issues with the police since I was 12 years old, if a cop wanted to give me a high five, I'd take it as a pleasant surprise, probably smile and say something along the lines of "Hey. Thanks." and go on with my day.

20. i would love if police officers came and gave high fives to me in the morning before school

21. I'm offended by easily offended people.

22. Mexican here. I can confirm high fives are intimidating because it means that a job was done well which mean I have nothing to do anymore and I will get hit with a sandal for being lazy.

23. Mike – Please come to Mass and shake this state up. You should see how ridiculous of gun laws are.

24. Why god, just why, I guess autism effected many people that fear positive things. This is sadly the modern day

25. Sometimes people need a concrete pill. Or they need to build a bridge

26. I think I just high fived my face!

27. We live in a crumbling society. Someone or something needs to save us from ourselves. And by us….I mean them.

28. I'm from springfield and currently reside in boston for college and I can confirm that Northampton is the most liberal and backwards town where almost everyone gets offended. please don't let them represent Massachusetts. they took public transportation to Amherst for an event called chem Olympiad for AP chem students… like who does that.

29. I'm sure it's a regional thing.

30. They should keep cops out of school's. No need to bring dangerous weapons to a school.
    In Norway the cops don't even walk around with weapons and they do not stand around school's giving high fives. Guess they got better things to do, like make a program for an actual school visit.

31. What is the basis for the claim that it is intimidating to children?
    I think it is favorable that people try to limit/change their actions to avoid making other people unconfortable.
    For example, in general assemblies that adopt the Morin Code, people are encouraged or obligated to shake their hands over their heads (like "Jazz hands") instead of clapping. This avoids exclusion of some people (i.e.) suffering from agarophobia.

32. Mike, I have a child in this school system. I have expressed my displeasure about this with the school. The problem is that the very small minority of parents who think this is offensive are VERY vocal and those who do not sit quietly by and say nothing. There are a few exceptions but you get my point.

33. worst part is these kids aren't going to trust the police and learn from a young age that cops are their friends. I think our police need more interaction with our youth.

34. have to be careful. dominant minorities are real; there are a lot of examples in history. western society is going downhill fast.

35. THANK YOU MIKE AND THANK YOU TRUMP

36. why would u guys arrest people for lil things!?😓

37. A Whiner Whining about other Whiners, you're no Different than those 12 people

38. Guys I know a way to stop this shit from happening make Russian style gulags it actually works all the time it makes people fear fucking up so they don't do anything stupid and Boom no more morons and keep them working

39. It is a laudable objective for a police department to attempt to build positive interpersonal relationships with their community. Like everything a police department considers doing, the department leadership needs to consider budgetary, staffing, safety and political issues when deciding the specific actions they'll take. It sounds like there are some political complications that apply here. And, you're milking the optics of some headlines for the benefit of your YouTube channel. Great, I wish you all the best.

    My critique is earlier in the process. I just can't see how children getting high-5s while entering the school building a few Fridays a year results in a good relationship between the kids and the department.

41. They don't want police officers betrayed in a good light, so that way they can zombify their children into believe all Leo's are racist, psychopathic killers. That's the real reason they don't want officers doing this.

42. Yes, people are way too offended these days, they need to lean into the pain and sit with it awhile and experience that they can overcome fears with a little effort. But also, what about the ones who pulled the program? Weren't they strong enough, persuasive enough and wise enough leaders to stand up to the weak? I worked in a corporate environment for years and watched while the weakest link always got their way because giving in was the path of least resistance and easier for management.

43. so if by their standards i felt offended that i had homework i wouldn't have to do it especially if i was a minority.

44. Heaven forbid people realize cops aren't racists and hate everyone that isn't like them

45. Right hand drive car or sitting in passenger seat?

46. Hey Mike I have a video request; can you talk about road rage? How police think when responding to such a call, how fault is determined, etc. I've been involved in 2 serious cases over the years and both times the police pushed strongly to resolve them without arrests/citations. Is it kind of assumed "it takes two to tango.." so it's hard to pinpoint the primary aggressor?
