He is admitting his mistake, and commenting on that. I just don’t know what else you want. Here we have a person who grew emotionally and also is making tangible changes to law enforcement around it and people are shitting on him. Do people want change or to be upset? I am confused here

> "Your eyes are opened more. It hurts me that I didn't have that deeper more personal connection to how those families felt earlier. They've asked me what would I do if it was my daughter. And I told them I know my kids. I know we would do anything to protect our kids. If my daughter was in a situation like that it brings more perspective to it, a more personal perspective."

Why cherry pick the relevant part out of it? You are upset that this sheriff now has more empathy? Do you want him to not stop the practice? He clearly admits that he now can more deeply understand what other families have told him.

They were talking about lighting a small candle. That just does not put out a meaningful amount of heat compared to the risk of knocking it over and setting the interior of your vehicle on fire, especially if you will be sleeping. Every year people die trying to keep warm in emergency situations or non emergency situations.

To be safe, eat food before you go out on the road, bring calorie dense snacks, and bring way more warm clothes than you’d think you’d need along with whatever other gear you need!

That is simply not true. Your body puts out far more heat than a candle. I’m not sure where you heard this, but it is terrible advice to start a fire inside your car. Bad advice like this leads to deaths every year of people trying to keep warm. Keep food and very warm clothing in the car, and lots of blankets. That will create magnitudes more heat for you than a candle. Please do not go around spreading bad information like this. Somewhere out there is a person who will read this and keep a bunch of useless candles in their car.
