What was once a highly respected and honored profession has been run into the ground by the left. The pressures of the job today are immense, with every encounter being a potentially career —or life— ending incident. All while getting no support from the media and much of the public at large. My city is offering a $40,000 hiring bonus to attract police officers, and still finding it to be a great challenge to find good people. No surprise.

I was at a sub shop a few months ago and a young policeman was behind me. I paid for mine and stepped aside while he ordered. He was reaching for his wallet to pay and I put cash down, telling the cashier it was on me. The policeman was speechless and stammered, “Are you sure?”

My husband is a former policeman and I told him I felt that guy’s pain when I was standing there in front of him - weird but he just seemed ‘spent’. It is a thankless job now, compliments of the democrats and our LE have had targets put on their backs.

Thank you to all law enforcement out there!!!! You are loved!!!!

I saw an army recruiting poster yesterday in the mall - where there is a small recruiting office - saying there is a $50,000 bonus for signing up.
