Since 2018, the hardworking men and women of the #BPD have taken close to 2,300 guns off the streets of #Boston. With every gun recovered, we most certainly make our city a #SaferBoston. To all of our officers, we say: “Keep up the great work.” #OneLessGun

On #LawEnforcementAppreciationDay, we ask you to join us in thanking all who are called to protect and serve. Here in Boston, we love our police officers. Because when danger strikes, our officers run towards it. And, when citizens need help, our officers always answer the call.

While we wholeheartedly agree the holiday season is a time to rejoice and count blessings, we’d be remiss to not take a moment to remember those lost. Eight months ago, Officer Jose Fontanez died in the line-of-duty due to #COVID19. We miss him every day. God bless his family.

Special thanks to @Bmarch63 for standing up for @tuukkarask. The fact remains that it is okay to support police reform and police officers at the same time. Especially in Boston. Home to one of the most professional, progressive police depts in the nation. weei.radio.com/blogs/scott-m…

"Quite honestly, they're human beings like us," he said. "They're men in uniform just doing their job. Not all cops are bad. There are just a few bad eggs and there are just a lot of young kids that don't understand that, but they need to understand that." bit.ly/2MqP1ya

Men and women of #BPD not surprised by the moment of humanity captured by @7News reporter Justin Bourke during last night's chaos. Our officer said, "Things are gonna get better." And, we couldn't agree with him more.
A moment of humanity out here. This young man, Elian, approached the officer to make sure he's alright. The officer comforted him back saying "things are gonna be okay." @7News

With coronavirus concerns limiting the scale and magnitude of funeral services for fallen #BPD Officer Jose Fontanez, we are kindly asking and encouraging community members to light their homes and commercial buildings in blue tonight in honor of his service and sacrifice.
