A Facebook post written by a white police officer who had recently pulled over a black man for texting while driving has gone viral. Garden City Lieutenant Tim McMillan writes he pulled over the man and, when he approached his vehicle, the man was visibly shaken and seemed terrified. The man asked McMillan what he wanted him to do. McMillan told the man he just didnt want him to get hurt. The man asked if McMillan wanted him to exit the vehicle, and McMillan told him no and he didnt want him to text and drive. He continued, saying he wanted his mother to always have her baby boy. McMillan also writes in the post he doesnt care who is at fault for young black men being afraid of police officers but he wishes somebody would fix it. The post has over 1,500 likes and has been shared over 1,000 times.
