19 Year Old Girl Shields Police from Violent Protesters, and Her Brave Message is Going VIRAL! America is experiencing the worst case of Deja vu with these Ferguson protests, and it seems like everyone is attacking police for doing their jobs. But one young lady is showing pure class and DEFENDING the police from the unruly mob. 19 year old Lexi Kozhevsky is setting the internet ablaze for her efforts to protect police.St Louis Post-Dispatchs director of photography, quoted her as saying: I would rather get hit by something than let it hit them. In a snap chat message, the young girl says, Look guys, discrimination is a thing and I get it but we need to stay with the people who protect us and thats what Im doing. I want to protect my police. Lexi is aSt. Louis University nursing student and she told the Blaze just how she felt being out there alone. It was scary. People were looking at me and making gestures. It was unnerving, to say the least. But sometimes you just have to stand your ground. And stand her ground she did, even when water bottles were being thrown at her face.They threw a water bottle and it was pretty scary because you dont know whats being thrown at you,Kozhevsky said. Lexi uses common sense, something that is lacking in this movement. She said,I dont think all cops are evil based on a few incidents. Lexi realizes just how grateful we should be for the work police officers do.Not all cops are bad, she said. And thats just what upsets me. When I call someone if someone robs me, I call the police. They are there to help us. This young lady understands that the actions of these protesters are counterproductive. Thats not the way to make progress, she says. Reach out to government officials, start petitions, make a change, she said. But dont be violent. It hurts the community more than anything. We all know she will probably get death threats and be called racist for her inspiring actions. These protesters work hard to shut down events, but they rage against anyone who tries to shut down violence. But if this girl was brave enough to step in front of police and face a mob of hateful animals, something tells me she can handle her own.
