Mom Who Was Shamed For Breastfeeding by a Cop Gets a Reply From The Sheriff
1.
His argument was founded on his claim that he could see a little areola. From there things escalated rather quickly — he actually threatened to arrest her and then shamed her into finishing the feeding in her car. She was so upset, she took to Facebook to post about the incident where it's been shared almost 15,000 times.

She did just that, and Muscogee Country Sheriff Darr posted his response to her on Facebook as well.

Sheriff John T. Darr September 26 at 8:11am · Good Morning, I have seen and am aware of a post circulating Facebook, regarding a situation between a Muscogee County deputy and a woman attempting to breastfeed her young child. My wife and I have four children, each of whom were breastfed, and two of my daughters now have small children of their own. Therefore, I fully understand and appreciate the right of a woman to feed her child wherever she is most comfortable. It is also the law in the state of Georgia. We are currently looking into this incident and it will be addressed. Our office does not condone these actions and will ensure all officers know and understand the law. On behalf of the Muscogee County Sheriff's Office, I would like to personally extend an apology to the woman involved, and we hope that she knows that these are not the opinions or practices of the office as a whole.

Sam Taylor Sheriff, this went viral, and your response is wonderful. As a public servant myself, I salute you.

Women should be able to feed their babies anywhere without any shame. If it was your screaming baby hungry you would want him/her feed. But cops can make mistakes and its no big deal but we citizens make a mistake or drive 5 over the speed limit or silly things we have to pay for them.
