Recently, there has been a lot of negativity surrounding law enforcement in the United States. In response to the hateful comments, Officer Brittany Beard Hilton posted a photo to her Facebook page — never expecting it would go massively viral with over 100,000 shares.
The photo, at first glance, is pretty simple. It shows her and a fellow officer in uniform. Brittany starts by saying, “All you may see in this photo is two smiling police officers. But there is more.” You see, Brittany is posing in the squad car — and next to her is her husband, Steven, who also works as a police officer in Texas. Brittany and Steven have four daughters to raise, and this photo was taken on Thanksgiving Day. They spent the holiday protecting the people of their city instead of spending it at home with their family.
