VIDEO: Tom Selleck Just Said What Cop Haters Need to Hear; Way to Stand Up for the NYPD!

There are plenty of celebrity liberal blowhards who are happy to spew uneducated Ferguson talking points and trash cops as racist murderers. But Tom Selleck took the opposite approach, and instead stood up for the NYPD.

Long after his days as Magnum P.I., Tom Selleck is still our hero. He’s one of the most underrated celebrities and his heart of gold happens to have a pretty conservative bent.

Not only is his show Blue Bloods growing more and more popular, but its strong family values and solid message about the value of our Policemen and women is nothing short of patriotic.

In a time when hatred for our men and women in uniform is at an all time high, Selleck appeared on The Talk where he talked about the show that is showing the real-life struggles of cops. When the ladies showed a clip from Blue Bloods, the message was so powerful and needed in our nation that even Selleck teared up as he watched!

“Cops are held to a higher standard, but never forget that they are people too. I’m not asking anyone to cut us slack, not at all. But a little recognition for the conditions under which our men and women operate, that would go a long way.”

Police officers make mistakes too, but most people will never understand what it’s like to be forced, every day, to make decisions that are literally life and death. Most cops are good people who have to work under the kind of stress that the average person can’t even fathom — the least we can do is stand behind them as they risk their lives to protect ours.
