    Thumbs up Man saves cop from burning vehicle despite his history with police

    last month. McLee said he rushed oyt after hearing a huge crash: "There was just a lot of screaming, a lot of chaos. Ah man, I get chills when I think of it."

    It was a bad traffic accident involving a police car. An officer trapped inside. A gas tank leaking. Flames spreading toward the cabin. Another officer who responded to the crash tried to rescue his colleague but couldn't get the door open, and that's when a lone bystander, McLee, stepped toward the burning wreckage.

    "I don't know how I got that door open, and I grabbed him out."

    "All of a sudden the door just gets ripped open," said Jay Hanley, the officer McLee rescued.

    "It's amazing when there's true love in people and they can get you out of something like that — no matter who you are or where you come from. There should be more people like that," Hanley said.

    And certainly, if there were more people like that, there'd be more moments like this: McLee and Hanley greeting.



    Last week, McLee came over to check on Hanley and meet his very thankful wife. That's the other thing they're grateful for. Despite all his run-ins with the law, McLee still believes there are a lot of good cops worth keeping.

    "We're waiting for you to get back out there," McLee said. "I appreciate it, man, thank you," Hanley said.

    Nobodys life matters, especially these days. It's just a marketing phrase to get idiots to agree with what you want to do.

    hey look i'm Buddhist. we don't believe in attachment to self (my other user name is "anatta" =no self);
    but we certainly want the karma to escape samsara..

    I think you are confusing ego with a will to live. my 2 cents of psychobabble

    No, I have plenty of ego. I just no longer care about living, it's meaningless.
