One cop’s Heartfelt TikTok Video Goes Viral: ‘All of Us Are Not Bad…I’m So Tired’
Speaking on behalf of good cops everywhere, Major Kelvin Dingle posted a TikTok video expressing his frustrations with the current national anti-cop sentiment.
@kelvindingle I’m tied so tied.
“I’m tired. I am so goddamn tired. I wake up every morning and kiss my family goodbye, knowing there’s a possibility I won’t come home,” Major Kelvin Dingle says to the camera. “I am tired of every time I wake up in the morning there’s someone else polarizing the fact that maybe law enforcement is just not a good thing.”
He continues, “All of us are not bad. I am not as they are. Most of us are not. There are bad people in every career. I am so goddamn tired, tired, tired.” Dingle once again towards the end of the video captured while he’s driving says “I give everything. I am tired.”
The Major’s TikTok video went viral, receiving almost 2 million views in a few short days. His TikTok account bio says he is an inspirational speaker and Christian Youth counselor. He is also the operations commander at the Morehouse School of Medicine’s public safety office in Atlanta.
Dingle has developed a social media following by documenting his experiences as an officer. Viewers of the “I’m tired” viral video were overwhelmingly supportive, commenting things like “I’m so upset that this is your reality” and “you have so much support.”

Employees Completely Helpless as Shoplifters Walk Out With Thousands Worth of Goods at Oregon Lowes
Social media Twitter account @libsoftiktok which states in the bio it posts “all things insane & hypocritical” posted a one-minute video showing “2 people walk out of an Oregon Lowe’s with carts of stolen merchandise. Employees look on and are unable to do anything.”
As the video plays, words highlighted red appear that read, “INCREDIBLE STATE OF OREGON, USA” and “IF YOU KNOW THESE PEOPLE, PLEASE ALERT THE POLICE IMMEDIATELY.” The video takes place at a Lowes store and epitomizes the sad times we are in.
Within the first eight seconds of the video, the two robbers, with filled carts, simply stroll out of the store as if they were paying customers. The Lowes employee asks the men “can you show me the receipts?” The young man appears to flash something while saying “right here.”

The female employee then says “no, I don’t think so” knowing the men did not pay for the items. The two thieves continue to walk the carts out of the store and a second, elderly Lowes employee attempts to stop the men, shouting “hey” as he follows them.
The female employee stops the elderly male employee from pursuing the robbers saying, “it’s not worth it.” As the robbers have successfully exited the store, into the parking lot, the male recording the video then asks the employees, “doesn’t it suck you guys can’t do anything? I mean I think it’s just amazing.”
The video then shows the men in the parking lot throwing the stolen items into a red Subaru where it appears others were waiting to help. A voice can be heard explaining that the guys are packing the car with stolen goods, and another man explains it happens “every day.”
“Dude that’s thousands of dollars – I’m an electrician, bro” the videographer explains of the sheer amount of goods being stolen. The thieves close the back door and the videographer zooms in to the back of the car to show the “license tag” before the car speeds away. The red highlighted words “IF YOU KNOW THESE PEOPLE, PLEASE ALERT THE POLICE IMMEDIATELY” remained on the video the whole time.
11 flights are reported to have landed at Volk Field Air National Guard at Camp Douglas, Wisconsin yesterday, according to the Director of Public Affairs of the 88th Readiness Division at Ft. McCoy.
Wisconsin’s local NBC station reports, “Transportation, temporary housing, medical screening, and general support are being provided for 50,000 Afghan evacuees as quickly as possible.”
“It was not specified the number of refugees that had arrived on those flights” and there are already a few thousand Afghan refugees living at Fort McCoy. More will reportedly be arriving in the coming days.
“In time, more than 10,000 men, women, and children may get processed through the fort before relocating across the country according to figures released by both the Department of Defense, along with state and local officials and agencies” WXOW News 19.
Video shows U.S. Army Soldiers handing out toys and basic necessities such as soap and other hygiene products to the refugees as they arrive at the Fort McCoy base. “Items being handed out are part of 1,600 comfort kits currently being issued by the American Red Cross, reports the U.S. Army 181st Multifunctional Training Brigade.”
“The Department of Defense, through U.S. Northern Command, with the support of the Department of State and Department of Homeland Security is assisting in the effort.
The initiative will provide Afghan personnel essential support at secure locations outside Afghanistan” adds the NBC News affiliate.
WXOW News 19 detailed a “day in the life” at the fort with the refugees:
Q: What is the day-to-day life currently for the Afghan people?
A: The Afghans are free to conduct their lives as they desire. On any given day you might see some folks jogging or walking in the morning for exercise. Women are washing clothes and hanging them on clotheslines for drying. Kids are playing with balls and a soccer field is available for games. Places of worship with prayer rugs are available to accommodate religious needs. Dining facilities are open for meals. Miscellaneous personal items and some food and drinks are available for purchase through post exchange trailers located in the neighborhoods.
Q: What kind of food is being offered/prepared for them?
A: Dining facilities are available for all meals, and a grab-and-go option is also offered. Culturally appropriate food is available.
Q: What kind of help/volunteers are being allowed on base and what kind of services are currently being offered?
A: We have the USO on the ground to support Soldiers who are part of Task Force McCoy. We are working with a number of interagency partners and non-governmental organizations. These include the Department of Homeland Security, Department of State, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and International Rescue Committee, to name a few. Also on the ground to support Task Force McCoy are Team Rubicon, American Red Cross, and Catholic Charities of the Diocese of La Crosse, Wisconsin.
Q: Are vaccinations for COVID-19 being offered and are Afghans encouraged to wear masks on base or is it mandated for all persons on base?
A: Medical screening is one of the services offered. Afghans are tested for COVID-19 and will receive COVID-19 vaccinations. Afghans are asked to wear masks.

One of these days in the near future there won’t be anyone wanting to be a policeman….why would anyone want to now the way they are treated.

The news media is the main culprit in this attack on our Law Enforcement Communities.
It, in no way, represents the hundreds of millions of Americans who appreciate law and order, and those who “protect and serve”.
Have faith the Leftist News Media will devolve into the trash bin of history, where all political propaganda eventually ends up.

I think it’s terrible that you are not given the respect that you deserve. We all need police to protect us from criminals. Without police officers we would be at the mercy of the criminal element. I don’t know why people can’t see that. Please keep doing what you are doing and believe in yourself. Anyone who doesn’t appreciate good people like you is a total fool. Thank you! You are my hero.
