Yea the cops need a lot more training in loads of different fields. I think that's where you tend to get bad cops because good cops get more training so they have more tools to use in different situations compared to bad cops who have less tools and rely more on their weapons. By bad cops, i don't mean plain and simple racists and asshole cops, i just mean cops who more or less jumped the gun on a shooting
@Big Guy Except cops agree. Cops need more training in order to be able to confidently handle different situations. They need more funding and more/better training. Donut Operator, an ex cop, talked about how cops need more training in his video "DEFUND THE POLICE 8CANTWAIT". The video is a clickbait title, but in there he talks about how cops need more funding and more / better training. The thing is, there is a problem with cops in america. And this problem can be solved by funding more programs that re-burden the police and by giving more funding to cops that allows them to have more and better training.
@Mr Mann probably if you intensify your protests the elite will be forced to listen, specially if you burn down their shit, which seems to be what they really care about. i'm surprised the addresses of your senators and representatives havent been leaked. those seem like prime targets for riots. then they would be FORCED to listen. as an outsider i would feel zero pity for them.

@@madlaw7736 because they are innocent untel proven guilty. You can not be judge, jury and executioner based soley off an alleged crime. That is up to the courtroom.
This is what police work is supposed to be. What we have is a self perpetuating system that does nothing but take from the locals, gives mostly to the county judges who are just administrators and then blames the community for decaying and targets the most vulnerable because they're easiest to vilify.
We would if there weren't gangs shooting each others neighborhoods up. Hard to have this type of policing when one has to worry about being shot just for being a cop.
A hero is one that takes a bullet while protecting civilians. A cop doing something any normal human could do is not heroic. Also saving people from a burning building is heroic.
@@madlaw7736 if an average person did this, they would be considered a hero also. if your in a burning building, your hero will show up to save you in that building, these people dont even have a building to be in. the hero shows up in bad situation (shitty end of town teaming with homeless people) to help somebody/anybody in need and this is exactly whats going on here.
As a police officer I just want to point out that this type of policing is great, but you do need the officers willing to serve warrants and chase violent offenders. If every department devoted a team to do just this kind of work that would be really cool.
I agree with you , firstly community policing is so important in regards to building cohesive relationships with local/ the community it goes a long way.
I'm old enough to remember when all police officers were "community policing" officers. They walked around the neighborhoods, they knew the store keepers, they knew the kids, they knew the trouble makers. If necessary, they'd serve warrants and chase violent felons.
Problem is cops have that "us vs them" judge dred attitude and treat everyone and every situation as a threat. That is supposed to be the exception not the rule. Big city, small town, doesn't matter. I don't have a criminal record yet i have been tossed on the hood of a cop car, been in the back of a car, been threatened and chased by cops from age 14-23 then i was big enough, had no fear and they thought twice. Community policing is way more important and effective. They become part of the community they serve and actually "serve". Oh and to this day i dont trust cops, doubt i ever will. I inow there are good cops, hell i did active fed law enforcement and 4yrs of that on a special tact team so i am not saying this just to say it. We need major police reform nationwide. This would be a good approach to what an average cop model should look like. Special teams could do special jobs. This should be the public interface with LEO.
Watching this after Minneapolis' decision to abolish the police, and replace it with this one. Hope they try to emphasize the help outreach part of community policing, and not end up as just being "nicer" cops (still continuing following the same protocols).

@@Lauren-vd4qe Hey Lauren, what if police were structured this way to start with? You think we'd be in this mess now? Training in deescalation, having access to counseling and caring about the community goes a lot further than profiling and murdering unarmed civilians.

They still did that in the 60's. Many Saturday night's we were stoped by the cops on our way home from the dance. Where were we going at that time of the night. 58 years ago haha
Too bad .000001% of our police officers are trained to look at Officer Wick like he’s on the other team. Too bad. Every officer should conduct like this guy
PickleMane True, but these individuals are truly doing “Gods” work. In the same way we don’t judge on skin color, we shouldn’t judge based on uniform. It’s a tough moral test I know, especially now.
PickleMane Domestic Violence is 2-4 (depending on study) times more likely to occur in Police Officers homes. They also have a much larger percentage of Sociopaths than the average population. So you had me correct the first time, most are not good people.
I I've in Houston, and never in my life have I been, or seen anyone harassed by police officers. All of the cops I've met and spoken to are very nice, educated, and very helpful. I had some questions about some laws, and carrying a loaded firearm in my vehicle for protection was lawful; the cop answered my questions, gave me advice, recommended personal defense firearms, and we had a nice chat about safety. I am really grateful for these police officers, especially when some are here to help us, even though they know they are despised by most
@@evoliciousprecisely. Do you see the police flashbanging and tear gassing tazing protestors who are smart enough to bring their guns with them to protest ?
“It feels great to help someone” I’m retired now but that statement the sergeant just made is why I went into law enforcement years ago. And he’s right.
It‘s a different situation. looking and talking to people in their normal state of mind vs getting called to people in an aggressive or panicked state. I also react differently if its an car accident i am arriving to or if it is a domestic violence call.
"We are just tools," says the officer. And in a certain way we are all "tools" in our work. The problem is that we are tools in the hands of power and for power, and we should be tools of the people and for the people.
nothing that simplistic is ever right, there is a lot of corruption but im sure if you spent enough time looking in to it you would also find a lot of "bright stars" too
Actually, the corrupt are definitely the minority, its just that there are a shit load of law enforcement in america so even a small minority is too many.
Houston native here, likely good news. While I don't know specifically what this guy is up to today, I can say that our protests have been a lot more peaceful than many of the other major cities. George Floyd was a Houston native and his funeral was held here. When the protests started here (they were protesting as a part of his funeral), it did not turn hostile. Our mayor (Sylvester Turner) and H.P.D.'s chief (Art Acevedo) reached out and were amicable with the protesters. Houston didn't blow up like a lot of our other cities, so I would assume that Sgt. Wick is safe and sound. Can't verify, of course, but things were pretty tame here.
It's done by a simple algoritm. Hire libtards to watch CNN and extrapolate the agenda. Have said libtards curate hippy dippy playlists. Weave those playlists into recommended feeds. Simple algorithm.
Algorithms have an intrinsic bias, they need to be trained initially to understand what the 'right' solutions are. Google family algorithms in particular are trained by people who are ideologically possessed.
Now I got recommended both BLM advert and this pro-police video. Before, I only got recommended from one side, creating an echo chamber. It's a duty to see both sides of the coin, especially the ones I disagree with.
He is the embodiment of what Defund the Police is all about!! It's not about taking jobs from cops and more about placing them in better roles to serve the community. That and getting rid of all that military gear. Keep it up Officer Wick, Texas needs more of you.
Bless, to all the good cops out there, that really care and try to get to know the community they are policing. It is a great help for both the community and LE.
absolutely beautiful. Give people a hand up not a hand out and they will be grateful and help themselves. What a great example SGT Wick is. Relationships start with one conversation and a kind word
@@mafuletrekkie No I am not drunk even if I drink I will stay sober because the shyte is going on. ONE year old kid shot in NYC and day before a lady for saying 'all lives matter' and people want to defund the police...
All cops should be required to run that beat for at least a year before doing patrol. I think it would help to humanize them a little bit, instead of just training them for arrests and writing tickets. Cops need to be approachable mediators first and foremost.
That's the beauty that's really reflected in being a policeman. Someone who loves his job, who loves to enforce law and order and both senses. Close to the citizens, especially they knew his citizens. Thank you for giving an example like yours sir, it is heartwarming with the current atmosphere.
This is a Great Share..Thank you :) It's All too Easy to see the negatives, but This great Vid Shows Us ALL what a Human SPIRIT and the right POSITION can TRULY Do :)
compared to the cops that put their life on the line protecting the citizens from violent criminals? You have very low standards for what makes a "real"cop
Its not always drugs and alcohol, or even mental illness. Sometimes its just people casting other people down, forcing them to be the lesser. Punishing people just for being people.
As a person who seems to experience people shitting on me for no reason A LOT, this is very true. I have had multiple people who I thought were good people and the best of friends fuck me over for a few dollars in a heartbeat, so many people are changed for the worse when they want to make easy cash, pretty much everybody I have tried to help start a business or whatever used me for my skills and tossed me off to the side when I wasn't needed anymore, they look like the expert and take most of the money, this is the reality in most cases sadly, the assholes use the nice people.
Mutual respect is the key. People forget the extreme range of qualifications and training we demand of our officers. Great program. Thank you for sharing. Godspeed.
This is alright, but there is a hell of lot more that goes into policing a city the size of Houston and after more than 40 years in law enforcement, this is just a small portion of what goes on in any department.
*Native Houstonian!!!! Now this is Beautiful ...This is who we are as a City!!! Who we are as People!!!...and who we are as Southerners!!! A 37% class of people and the Media don't define us*
True, but by doing this where they can, the attitude of the community will change. Eventually, the goal is for everyone to see Police officers like this, and then they can safely go wherever they need to, and help the people that most need it.
this kind of policing should still be seen as an option. riding around on a bike wouldn't fit everywhere and neither would cruising around in armored vehicles
Cooper Carr yes. it is part of police work in many countries, just like they are sometimes part firefighters putting out fires they happen upon and sometimes EMTs giving first aid before the ambulance gets to the situation and then sometime it is just running down a thief or shop lifter and slamming cuffs on them. being a police officer is a very varied job.
What I remember most vividly about interactions with police is hearing the arriving police saying, "Hi, Larry", "Hi, Jane", &c. I might never have met the other person in the altercation before, but the police almost always knew them.
God Bless you all :) It is a horrible shame that videos like this get zero attention...but a video of an officer being, even the slightest bit, assertive/violent towards a criminal gets massive nation-wide attention. Law Enforcement always has my support, keep on fighting the good fight, brothers/sisters!

gabe ortiz so we should have the same enforcement in normal, relatively peaceful cities that we do in gang-ridden ones? are you ok?
@gabe ortiz so what? all drugs should be legal anyways
Why do we need cops for this work? How did having weapons help him do this work?
Did you even watch the video? he works with HOMELESS people only.. smh.
I'm glad this is popping up on the algorithm right now. We need a reminder of what we're capable of as a nation and as a people.
incredibly uplifting message and goal. I applaud you Steve Wick
This is how the police should deal with homeless people, as a public servant, homeless are the public too. Compassion and empathy will change lives.
Depends who is asking for compassion and empathy.
“It feels great to help someone”
I’m retired now but that statement the sergeant just made is why I went into law enforcement years ago.
And he’s right.
“Think outside the box”.

Think "THERE IS NO BOX".
Thank you Steve! I hope this type of police work becomes more common. Building bridges between the PD and the community.
Bravo. Keep up the good work. I hope this spreads to more departments.
Wait a minute...he stopped and spoke to “those people” and he didn’t fear for his safety? Hmmmmm
It's almost like getting out of their car and talking to them reveals that they're just people like the rest of us.
It‘s a different situation. looking and talking to people in their normal state of mind vs getting called to people in an aggressive or panicked state. I also react differently if its an car accident i am arriving to or if it is a domestic violence call.
"We are just tools," says the officer. And in a certain way we are all "tools" in our work. The problem is that we are tools in the hands of power and for power, and we should be tools of the people and for the people.
I've found if I were to ever want to beat somebody senseless that many tools do the job perfectly.
More brain, less guns. This is what I call real police work. Respect!
Derp
More brains, same amount of guns. And you seem to have low standards for what real police work is.
One bright star in a endless universe of corruption
Such a positive outlook lol
+Polonium Fist he's right though unfortunately.
nothing that simplistic is ever right, there is a lot of corruption but im sure if you spent enough time looking in to it you would also find a lot of "bright stars" too
Actually, the corrupt are definitely the minority, its just that there are a shit load of law enforcement in america so even a small minority is too many.
this police officer is one in a million, hope he's doing good today even with this crazy ass riots...
Houston native here, likely good news. While I don't know specifically what this guy is up to today, I can say that our protests have been a lot more peaceful than many of the other major cities. George Floyd was a Houston native and his funeral was held here. When the protests started here (they were protesting as a part of his funeral), it did not turn hostile. Our mayor (Sylvester Turner) and H.P.D.'s chief (Art Acevedo) reached out and were amicable with the protesters. Houston didn't blow up like a lot of our other cities, so I would assume that Sgt. Wick is safe and sound. Can't verify, of course, but things were pretty tame here.
I hope he resigned like the others don’t deserve to deal with this shit
I think bad cops are one in a million
@@arashparthian_112 He resigned at the beginning of 2019. Fantastic chap.
TheSuperMathemagicia lucky him
There's no way that they are not manually reccomending some videos such as this one
It's done by a simple algoritm.
Hire libtards to watch CNN and extrapolate the agenda.
Have said libtards curate hippy dippy playlists.
Weave those playlists into recommended feeds.
Simple algorithm.
@@John-fy7yf ruclips.net/video/r0c1Bph1jrQ/видео.html
Algorithms have an intrinsic bias, they need to be trained initially to understand what the 'right' solutions are. Google family algorithms in particular are trained by people who are ideologically possessed.
Now I got recommended both BLM advert and this pro-police video. Before, I only got recommended from one side, creating an echo chamber. It's a duty to see both sides of the coin, especially the ones I disagree with.
@@nicholasbyram296 The whole world is conspiring against you. Even on pro-police videos apparently? You might as well just give up 😂
Thank God for Office Mark Hamill
This is normal in Europe. Police is here to protect and serve.
unless your in Germany and its to protect you against Muslims.
Because you live in a homogenous country full of white people...at least for now
Not much different than americans bombing other countries and fellow americans endorsing it.
Europe, the original America :)
that's cus you don't have to deal with subhumans, but you will in there future. what fun.
He is the embodiment of what Defund the Police is all about!! It's not about taking jobs from cops and more about placing them in better roles to serve the community. That and getting rid of all that military gear.
Keep it up Officer Wick, Texas needs more of you.
Actually integrating yourself with the community, nice
STOP RESISTINGmyloveforyou!

I would love to do this exact type of work . How do i get started ?
a background in social work and criminal justice would be a great start. Or something to aim for depending on your experience.
I would suggest working with your local outreach programs. They are always looking for volunteers!
Don't be black if you are in America. Now you are good to go!
T3n50r Well he probably already got shot by another cop when he undressed after work.
Good point. Didn't think of that one, haha.
Bless, to all the good cops out there, that really care and try to get to know the community they are policing. It is a great help for both the community and LE.
We need more guardians and less warriors in our PD’s
nice to see people like this
A cop walking a beat, imagine that.
"I've got two friends in this world. I've got Mr. Wick and I've got my cat." That actually brought a tear to my eye ❤
I was already on the verge as I watched this video, and that line made the tears happen
this is great. i want the police to be our friends.
They better watch out. A few good apples might improve the bunch.
Thank you to the cops who care
This is what policing in community SHOULD look like! God Bless this man! 🇨🇦🇨🇦👏❤️
absolutely beautiful. Give people a hand up not a hand out and they will be grateful and help themselves. What a great example SGT Wick is. Relationships start with one conversation and a kind word
See, this is a much more believable version of Luke Skywalker.
When we say "defund the police", this is the sort of thing we want the money moved to.
AOC said defund the police means DEFUND the police
@@dragomirstijovic5569 Yeah... you take the money and send it to other programs. How is this hard to understand?
It's easy to understand that plan, outcome? Not, luckily, I don't that will happen, because entire USA will become what NYC is now
@@dragomirstijovic5569 Ummm.... are you drunk?
@@mafuletrekkie No I am not drunk even if I drink I will stay sober because the shyte is going on. ONE year old kid shot in NYC and day before a lady for saying 'all lives matter' and people want to defund the police...
We need this type of man leading unions and departments.
This guy is awesome, and deserves a Texas "Hell ya". Kudos to him!
He looks like a mix between Matt Damon and Mark Hamill
Cops should be forced to watch this during their training
Do you think cops should carry guns
All cops should be required to run that beat for at least a year before doing patrol. I think it would help to humanize them a little bit, instead of just training them for arrests and writing tickets. Cops need to be approachable mediators first and foremost.
@@bigsmoke3821 yes but cops should also have constant training to deescalate and use it as a last resort
@@bigsmoke3821 Only if they're mentally stable.

WoW! . . . . softly exhaling my airs of respect & recognition to this effort.
That's the beauty that's really reflected in being a policeman.
Someone who loves his job, who loves to enforce law and order and both senses.
Close to the citizens, especially they knew his citizens.
Thank you for giving an example like yours sir, it is heartwarming with the current atmosphere.
Why don't they just arrest them all and lock them up? At least that would keep them off our nice streets.
This is a Great Share..Thank you :)
It's All too Easy to see the negatives, but This great Vid Shows Us ALL what a Human SPIRIT and the right POSITION can TRULY Do :)
Glad to see this. We need more programs like this nationwide. Homeless people deserve to get their lives back on track and not forgotten about.
He’s not a police officer, he’s a social worker in police uniform.
That’s a VERY good thing.
That's a real Cop!!
compared to the cops that put their life on the line protecting the citizens from violent criminals? You have very low standards for what makes a "real"cop
Its not always drugs and alcohol, or even mental illness. Sometimes its just people casting other people down, forcing them to be the lesser. Punishing people just for being people.
sounds like a good argument for eugenics
As a person who seems to experience people shitting on me for no reason A LOT, this is very true. I have had multiple people who I thought were good people and the best of friends fuck me over for a few dollars in a heartbeat, so many people are changed for the worse when they want to make easy cash, pretty much everybody I have tried to help start a business or whatever used me for my skills and tossed me off to the side when I wasn't needed anymore, they look like the expert and take most of the money, this is the reality in most cases sadly, the assholes use the nice people.
Mutual respect is the key. People forget the extreme range of qualifications and training we demand of our officers.
Great program.
Thank you for sharing. Godspeed.
my eyes have been blessed. good on Officer Wick and Officer Giraldo for taking the initiative and helping so many people.
Bless you guys. You guys are doing kind caring work.
This is alright, but there is a hell of lot more that goes into policing a city the size of Houston and after more than 40 years in law enforcement, this is just a small portion of what goes on in any department.
Has it worked so far? it doesn't look like has
@daniel holden shut the fuvk up you dog Whistler
What a wonderful and kind person. We need more people in the police department like him.
*Native Houstonian!!!! Now this is Beautiful ...This is who we are as a City!!!
Who we are as People!!!...and who we are as Southerners!!!
A 37% class of people and the Media don't define us*
i love this. this made me so happy to watch.
Some hero’s don’t wear capes
This is beautiful. I am so happy there are officers like this. We need more
Handsome, smart and kind. More like him please!!
This kind of policing only works in some areas of cities. In other areas he'd literally be putting his life at risk riding around on a bike.
True, but by doing this where they can, the attitude of the community will change. Eventually, the goal is for everyone to see Police officers like this, and then they can safely go wherever they need to, and help the people that most need it.
this kind of policing should still be seen as an option. riding around on a bike wouldn't fit everywhere and neither would cruising around in armored vehicles
Sad but true.
damn, good on you, buddy.
4:33 "they're just people" finally! Someone with empathy and common sense.
I loved him as Luke Skywalker and I love him as a Community Outreach Officer.
Good to see Mark Hamill's still gettin' work.
sooooo social workers?
Social workers with resources.
And guns.
nurses aren't social workers. neither are cops. try getting some sense of citizenship and doing good in the world
Shut the fuck up
Cooper Carr yes. it is part of police work in many countries, just like they are sometimes part firefighters putting out fires they happen upon and sometimes EMTs giving first aid before the ambulance gets to the situation and then sometime it is just running down a thief or shop lifter and slamming cuffs on them. being a police officer is a very varied job.
Well done Houston. More of this across the nation, please.
What I remember most vividly about interactions with police is hearing the arriving police saying, "Hi, Larry", "Hi, Jane", &c. I might never have met the other person in the altercation before, but the police almost always knew them.
I wonder why a video like this is showing up in my recommendations at a time like this 🧐
too many people watching cop related vids, so the algo sends us more cop related vids.
All by design.
@@johncam8420 the algorithm just wants everybody to get along.
Maybe it's because people really like Mark Hamill but nobody checked the guys actual name
Thank you. A million times thank you.
My best friend’s dad grew up next door to this man. He says that he is every bit as genuine as he appears in this video.
This is what policing looks like...REAL policing...protecting and serving. This is a REAL Police Officer...a REAL HERO!!! Thank you so much.
God Bless you all :) It is a horrible shame that videos like this get zero attention...but a video of an officer being, even the slightest bit, assertive/violent towards a criminal gets massive nation-wide attention. Law Enforcement always has my support, keep on fighting the good fight, brothers/sisters!
one good apple in a truckload of rot
Be the change you want to see.
Hahaha! "Truckload of rot"? From what the media's been feeding you?
WhereIsMyDinnerWoman you need not look for long and you will see as your maturity grows with knowledge you will understand how fear is the collar firmly attached
THEQuest2112 Lol.
I bet Ismaaiyl Brinsley is a hero of yours. You have the same mentality.
Sgt. Wick is an awesome role model. We are grateful to have him in our city. -J
God bless this man. We need more people like him of all ethnic groups, financial back grounds and large hearts. Thank you for your service
