People online couldn\u2019t stop talking about it. Likes and shares on Facebook went through the roof. Even the folks working in the store joined in, nodding their heads in agreement.\n</p><p>But, of course, not everyone was on board. Some folks thought it wasn\u2019t fair to single out just the police force. They argued that all first responders should get the same treatment.\n</p><p>And you know what? They have a point. Even law enforcement officers like the one running Ohio Going Blue\u2019s Facebook page agreed. They said, \u201cHey, we\u2019re not looking for handouts. But it sure feels good to be appreciated.\u201d\n<figure class='\"wp-block-image' size-full><img loading='\"lazy\"' decoding='\"async\"' class='\"wp-image-7206\"' src="%5C%22https:%5C/%5C/mypuppies.net%5C/wp-content%5C/uploads%5C/2024%5C/08%5C/image-4.png%5C%22" sizes='\"auto,' srcset='\"https:\/\/mypuppies.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/image-4.png' https: alt='\"\"' width='\"730\"' height='\"855\"' title='\"\"'>\n<p>And they\u2019re right. It\u2019s not just about free meals. It\u2019s about recognizing the hard work and dedication of all those who put their lives on the line for us.\n</p><p>That\u2019s why gestures like this matter. They show respect. They remind us to be grateful. And they let our everyday heroes know that we see them, we appreciate them, and we\u2019ve got their backs.\n</p><p>So, hats off to KFC for their generous offer. A free meal might not seem like much, but to those who wear the uniform, it means the world. It\u2019s a token of gratitude for their unwavering commitment to keeping us safe, day in and day out.\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"</p><p>But in Gallipolis, Ohio, one restaurant owner decided to take a stand.
