She's a lady and a heroine

A Louisiana woman is being hailed as a hero after police say she saw an officer struggling with a suspect and jumped on the man's back to help the officer subdue him.

Vickie Williams-Tillman, 56, was driving to a store Sunday morning, with gospel music on her radio, when she spotted the Baton Rouge officer, Billy Aime, and the suspect, according to The Advocate.

Baton Rouge Police spokesman Sgt. L'Jean McKneely says the suspect grabbed the officer's baton and repeatedly bashed him on the head with it, and also tried to grab the officer's gun.

Police say that after Williams-Tillman jumped on the man's back, police backup arrived and the suspect was apprehended after being shot with a stun gun.

Look at that picture and read that story and tell me that we can't all get along (and for the most part we do), support and love each other. The media wants us to believe otherwise. I'd like to see this story plastered all over every news cycle the way the bad ones are. I'd wager this kind of relationship is more the norm that what gets reported!
