Appreciation

This past weekend I had the privilege of seeing some firstline police work and I came away with a better understanding of just what we ask our officers to do.

"Go out into the midst of trouble wherever and whenever it is found and sort it out! If someone needs to go to jail, you take them; if someone needs to go home, you tell them; if someone is going to get hurt in the process, it very well may be you, so watch out for yourself, your fellow officers and the public who for the most part won't even know you're there."

Thankfully the men and women who do this job like it and have the dedication, judgment and guts to make the rest of us a lot safer in our cars, our homes and our businesses.
